Emergency Charter Evacuations and Humanitarian Relief Assistance

The recent major earthquake in Haiti provides another example of how quickly events can occur and evacuation needs can arise. When a catastrophe like this happens, it's hard to know what to do next. If you were impacted by a natural disaster while in a foreign country, who would you call?

If you or a loved one was seriously injured during a disaster like this one, would you receive adequate medical care? The needed medicine(s)?

The effects of the disaster itself, the added language barrier and the long distances involved can quickly turn a bad situation into a horrible nightmare for many families.

When you or loved ones are abroad and need emergency evacuation services, Stratos Jet Charters is always here for you. Stratos Jets will help get you out of your destination country and back to the U.S. as quickly as possible, sometimes within hours.

We also stand ready to arrange the delivery of life saving supplies - such as food, water. vital medicine and medical equipment, or shelter and clothing.
We also have a Spanish speaking staff member here at Stratos Jets, 24-hours-per-day, who can immediately assist you to arrange your safe return home or to medical facilities in the United States by emergency air charter transportation from Latin American countries.

Regardless of your situation, no matter what your needs may be, arranging for emergency evacuations or other critical, urgent travel needs is a forte here at Stratos Jets. It could save your life.

And of course we can facilitate other travel requirements as well, caused by potential violence or social unrest, medical emergency or life-threatening illness, or an emergency family situation back at home. The bottom line: we will always do whatever possible to assist you during a time of crisis!

For more information, give us a call at 888 478-7286 to find out more about your many options and all of our services here at Stratos Jet Charters.

We all wish we could avoid every natural disaster, like this current emergency in Haiti. But when the situation arises, we look forward to the opportunity to provide critical assistance during your time of great need.

Jet Charter Travel Tips

The convenience of a jet charter flight allows travelers to avoid many of the problems that can occur during a commercial trip.

Your flight departs on your schedule, and there are no “middle seats”, terrible in-flight food, or lost luggage. (And the only crying babies are the ones you bring with you!) Here are a few tips to help ensure a low-stress flight.

Utilize the Services Offered By Your Charter Flight Coordinator

They are your single point of contact for arranging all aspects of your travel. They are experts at coordinating seamless air to ground transfers, and they can make your rental car arrangements, book your hotel, or make event reservations. Stratos Jets will also be tracking your flight, and will make changes to your transportation reservations on the ground if necessary, dependent upon your schedule. Discussing travel arrangements or itinerary changes with the pilots rather than your charter flight coordinator can cause confusion and less than desirable level of service.

Print Your Itinerary…and Keep It Handy

Your coordinator will provide you with all of the details of your flight in a single page print out. Be sure to bring a hard copy, as your itinerary acts as a boarding pass and contains aircraft information, departure times and locations along with your passenger manifest and trip notes. If your charter flight coordinator has arranged a rental car or ground transfer, the confirmation # along with direct line of the local rental company will be conveniently found within your trip notes.

Keeper of the Keys

Most people experience a big sigh of relief when they get off a return flight and find their house or car keys exactly where they expected. For the same reasons that you probably put your keys in the same place every day when you’re at home (it’s the best way to keep track of them), you need a spot in your carry-on bag that will hold your keys (and other important items, such as a passport) for the duration of your trip.

Of course these are just a few of the many pieces of advice that could be mentioned. But the point is, often times it is the small details that can “make or break” a vacation or a business trip!

And always remember that when you travel with Stratos Jet Charters, we will do whatever is in our power to help you and your family or other companions have the best possible flying experience.
