A private flight is relaxed, but a few simple points make it smoother for everyone on board. This quick guide helps first-time flyers feel at ease.
Arrival and boarding
Arrive about 30 to 45 minutes before departure at the private terminal. Carry government ID and, for international trips, your passport and visa. Security checks are quick and personal.
Luggage
Soft-sided bags are best, since cabin and baggage compartments have limited space. Tell your charter team in advance about golf clubs, large instruments or sports equipment.
What to wear
Smart casual is perfectly fine. Carry a light layer, as cabins can be cool, and comfortable shoes for stepping across the tarmac.
Etiquette on board
- Follow the captain's briefing on seat belts and safety
- Tell the crew about allergies and drink preferences in advance
- Check smoking, pet and Wi-Fi rules before the flight
- Be punctual, since slots are tight
A quick pre-flight checklist
Pack soft bags, carry valid ID, share dietary needs a day ahead and confirm the terminal location. If you travel with children, bring entertainment and any comfort items. For international flights, keep passports in a separate pouch so that they are easy to access during immigration formalities. A small gift for the crew on a special occasion is appreciated but never expected.
Key takeaway: Keep your documents handy, pack soft bags and share preferences early. The crew will take care of the rest.
