Resolve To Fly More Private in 2022

Private Plane Pooling

by Stefanie Michaels

Private Plane-pooling is a thing…

As Americans continue to practice social distancing, we are more apt to celebrate New Year’s Eve quietly this year. I, for one, plan to curl up with my husband, Phil, and my pack of rescues to watch a few movie classics with a glass of  bubbly in hand, of course. Topping my favorites are Casablanca and Pretty Woman. While Phil may not fly me in a private jet for an Italian night at the opera, I can guarantee you that we’re dreaming of flying somewhere grand for our next epic adventure. And, by JetPooling, I’m channeling my best Rick Blaine with, “I think this could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.”

Think of JetPooling as the Uber of the skies. Companies like the former BlackBird, who had acquired by SurfAir, match private pilots with travelers wishing to avoid crowded commercial flights at an affordable rate via their downloadable app. Your choices of hyper-local Californian airports was to get you closer to your destination, and would allow you to fill the small plane with friends and family. Sadly, the company didn’t last, however SurfAir has remained air-born for the most cost-conscious traveler.

But, private access to international airways can prove a bit more tricky.

JetClass recently extended their business class experience for jet-poolers interested in flying to countries who’ve opened their borders to Americans. As of this fall, private international flights as low as $1700 from Los Angeles were being offered.

Four Seasons continues setting a high bar for luxury travel since their 2015 addition of private jet services, the first of its kind in the industry. In 2021, the pioneering fleet welcomes its newest reconfigured jet for journeys around the world, including an October trek of multiple day trips to Jordanian wonders. As every private jet needs a private landing strip, many of its properties also welcome guests to access their private air strips like the ones in the Maldives and Serengeti Four Seasons.

Still, luxury and nature are the best of bed fellows at Cuixmala in Jalisco, Mexico. Featuring three private wild beaches, 30,000 acres of nature reserve, and a 5,000-acre biodynamic farm, the retreat’s grass runway invites single and twin-engine charters from several regional airports during daylight hours.

With this growing trend, many American properties also offer charter services as a special amenity in all-inclusive experiences. For instance, Caldera House, an 8-suite hotel and alpine club in Jackson Hole, Wyoming packages round-trip, chartered private flights to their boutique accommodations in Teton Village with a 4-night, socially-distanced remote venture.

Filling my glass, I’ll bid 2021 a final adieu and think of you. May you realize the sky’s the limit. And, when it comes to travel in the face of a global pandemic, resolutions just got far less daunting with these ideas to get you started.
