Depending on the type of aircraft that is being chartered, we employ either one or two pilots who are experienced on your specific aircraft.  On select heavy jets during long range flights, we have a third pilot assigned to allow for in-flight crew rotation, which allows you to go farther, faster and without layovers.

It will vary from aircraft to aircraft.  If you plan to bring your pet on board a charter flight, please notify us ahead of time so that we can be sure to book you on a jet that accommodates your furry loved one.

With as little as two and a half hours notice, we can have you en-route to your destination.  If your situation requires a faster departure, we will also work with you to get you on the way to your destination as quickly as possible without compromising safety.

You can expect a fully customized, luxurious experience with white glove service given to every aspect of your journey. Travel King International provides an exceptional level of service, safety and privacy. Every detail is tailored to your comfort for a superior in-flight experience.

There are limitations and restrictions on both the amount and size of luggage you bring as well as the types of items you may pack. The limitations of amounts and sizes of luggage are dependent upon the size of the baggage area of the aircraft you are chartering. If you plan to bring any oversized items, such as skis or snowboards, please be sure to advise your flight specialist in advance. Also, we are held to the same TSA regulations for prohibited items for carry-on & checked baggage as the airlines. Please go to https://www.tsa.gov/travel/security-screening/prohibited-items to view a comprehensive list of allowed & restricted items.

Typically, for shorter-haul charter flights, all jets have a selection of premium snacks and refreshments. For long-haul charter flights, full meals are served according to your requests.  We can even procure a several-course meal and a wine pairing to match your preferences.

The private aviation industry adheres to the same safety standards as commercial aviation and is regulated by the same federal agency, the FAA. In addition, Travel King International has developed our own safety standards to ensure every flight is consistent and dependable and arrives at its destination safely.

Over the years, Travel King International has cultivated partnerships with a wide range of charter operators. We’ll work with charter operators in our network to find an aircraft that meets your exact travel needs.

In-cabin service representatives/flight attendants are optional for light and midsize jets. For a safer experience, we recommend a cabin service representative/flight attendant for all charter flights utilizing a heavy jet.

The cost to charter a private jet can range widely in price, based on flight time and the type of aircraft.

As the rates depend on dates, availability and types of aircrafts that are available for your travel dates, it’s best to get in touch and get a quote based on your specific travel requirements.

As one of our most important charter hubs, we can accommodate departures and arrivals in every San Francisco airport in the Bay Area.

San Francisco International (SFO) is a popular option but can be very expensive compared to smaller alternatives due to high landing fees and fuel prices. Oakland Metro (OAK) and San Jose (SJC) are typical charter alternatives not only for improved cost, but also for lighter crowds and traffic.

We can also fly in and out of smaller regional alternatives like Palo Alto (PAO) San Carlos (SQL) and Hayward Executive (HWD).
