An Inside Look at Flying Commercial vs. Private

Your next flight can be a source of stress – or it can relieve it. Flying with Jet Linx private jets will allow you to bypass many common stressors affecting travelers and begin your vacation the moment you pull up to the private terminal. Jet Linx Indy’s Base Partner Brent Claymon and Base President Casey Blake outline several reasons to fly with Jet Linx instead of flying commercial.

Time savings.

“With private aviation at Jet Linx, the time savings is unparalleled,” Claymon said. “You can arrive minutes before your departure and go directly through our private terminal and onto the plane.” Clients flying with Jet Linx will also skip one of the least desirable aspects of flying: the invasive TSA screenings. “Our clients don’t go through the invasive procedures now standard with commercial airlines,” Claymon explained. “No lines, no X-ray and no pat down – that’s a plus.”

Privacy.

“Our private terminal allows clients to come and go without being seen, like at a public FBO,” Blake said. “Clients also enjoy complete privacy while in flight, giving them the ability to meet with their teams and discuss business to and from their destination. Productivity abounds in private aviation!”

Direct Access.

“When you fly with Jet Linx, you can choose from an enormous number of airports as compared to the limited access of flying commercial,” Claymon elucidated. Jet Linx clients can choose flights closer to their final destination, reducing the need for lengthy ground travel before or after their flights. Nonstop service is available to many of the 5,000 airports serviced by Jet Linx, compared to fewer than 200 direct available (and as few as 16!) at commercial airports in Jet Linx Base cities.
