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.

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.

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.

The three main airports in the Houston area are D Wayne Hooks, William P Hobby and Bush Intercontinental. The best airport is really determined by your final destination and its proximity to the local airports. If you are departing from Houston your starting location will determine what is most convenient for you. William P Hobby is the most used charter airport in Houston, you can usually save money using Hobby as there are quite a few aircraft based there that require no re-positioning.

We have many aircrafts in our network based in Houston, that can seat anywhere from 1 to 40 passengers. Once you go above the 16-18 passenger count the aircraft are setup with more of a first class seating arrangement as opposed to the VIP arrangements. For groups larger than 30 passengers, please call and speak to an agent and we’ll be happy to get you more specific information.

Houston’s airports can support all types and sizes of private jets. The aircraft you choose should be tailored to the distance you are flying, the number of passengers and amount of baggage you’re bringing along, as well as your budget and preferences.
