Private Jets for Rent: The Popular Light Jet Category
At Stratos Jet Charters, our mission has always been to create a broad network of private jets for rent. Some charter brokers offer one or two aircraft types, and that is enough for their market niche. However, our focus is on custom-tailored charter flights, so we offer 9 aircraft types in our network. More choice means our clients get exactly what they need. Charter aircraft are categorized according to size and Maximum Take-Off Weight (MTOW). The most popular size is consistently the Light Jet category.
Here are the reasons why light jets are such a solid travel choice.
Where it All Began
In the mid-1960s, when private jet travel emerged, there were few categories. Jets were defined as commercial, military, or private. As the charter industry matured in the US, it became apparent that most business travelers were relying on jets capable of carrying 6 passengers up to 1,500 miles and landing at smaller, less-congested regional airports.
Aircraft manufacturers met growing market demand by designing stylish, ultra-comfortable, agile jets, and this is where the light jet category was born.
The Benefits of a Light Jet
Choice – We currently have 23 aircraft types in the light jet category. Need a fast and compact private jet for rent? The 5-seat Falcon 10 and the 7-seat Learjets in this category all fly at over 500 mph. Need more range? The Learjet 35 can easily deliver 7 passengers to a destination 2,500 miles away. In real-world terms, that would be a relaxing charter flight from Seattle to Atlanta, non-stop.
Efficiency – We believe in “right-sizing” our charter bookings. Unless you specifically require a larger aircraft, we will recommend the ideal light jet for your mission. It can save you money on fuel, rental, and other costs when you choose the right jet for your charter travels.
Amenities – All our jets are designed for VIP travelers. You can expect luxury seating, convenient fold-out work surfaces, an enclosed lavatory, extra legroom, and Wi-Fi connectivity. Many families also prefer light jets for holiday travel. Your family will travel in executive-level comfort, with purified cabin air and personal privacy.
Runway Options – The biggest advantage light jets have over larger private jets for rent is runway access. Chartering a light jet allows you to choose destinations that are unavailable to larger aircraft. When you need to take your executive team to a remote factory site or want to fly your group to an exclusive resort, a light jet is an ideal choice for luxury and value.
These are just a few of the benefits of the diverse light jet category. If you would like detailed information, just visit our Stratos Aircraft Comparison page.
