Private flights: a possible solution to cancellations

Thousands of passengers are delayed at airports around the world on a daily basis due to airline contingencies or trade union issues that stop the normal flow of flights. In fact, we recently saw it in the Jorge Newbery International Airport of the City of Buenos Aires. But this is something that not only happens in Argentina, but in many other countries around the world. For example, in 2022, during the European summer, there were 40,000 flight suspensions in Great Britain and the center of the continent after announcing a strike due to staff shortages.

Lprivate flights are an alternative increasingly chosen to travel because, in addition to being an option that adapts to the particular needs of each passenger, they simplify the logistics of transfers and guarantee that there are no delays or cancellations or changes in dates or times (except for the that could arise due to climatic issues).

What used to be a luxury, for some years now seems to be a trend based on necessity because this modality is even much more predictable than getting into your own car to go from one city to another. Whether for work or pleasure, the private aviation is increasingly chosen by people and companies to move with safety, efficiency and exclusivity. It is such a significant leap in quality that, once the passenger lives the experience, he does not want to go back. In the case of Argentina, in addition, private flights have among their advantages that they do not require going through Buenos Aires to go from one point to another.

On the other hand, the diversification within the private flights segment makes the offer closer to a broader public through modalities such as empty legs (the marketing of flights that return empty to 40 to 60% less of the value of the original segment) and shared flights in private planes on the most demanded routes according to each season, such as Buenos Aires – Punta del Este between the months of December and January. These options add up as alternatives to full private jets, point-to-point helicopter flights, or helitours.

Winter holidays on your own flight

Although it is recorded that the main users are businessmen, CEO level executives and celebritiesRecently, alternatives such as group ones began to be glimpsed. For example, groups of friends who plan their vacations together, a large family, or several, who wish to travel to the same place, or even those who want to guarantee a flight in which there is maximum comfort for their pets. Private aviation is much friendlier and more comfortable for dogs or cats that accompany their owners in the air, and who expect them to receive equal treatment with respect to other passengers.

Flying in a private plane is for the demanding. It is a service for people who want unique, exclusive experiences with the minimum of contingencies. In the Flapper app, passengers choose the date, time, aircraft model and service quality so that it adapts 100% to your needs.
