What To Do When Demand for Private Aviation Soars
If you look to the skies, you’ll see more jet contrails than you have in a long time. Jet travel is back, and demand for private aviation has surged. This recent surge doesn’t appear to be a one-time spike in demand either.
A recent survey indicated 69% of private aviation clients intend to fly more post-COVID than they did before the pandemic. Where does that leave you as a potential traveler? Let’s look at the trend and some of the benefits of booking with Stratos Jet Charters.
The Demand
As noted, 69% of travelers surveyed plan to use private aviation more than they did before the pandemic. The survey, conducted by Private Jet Card Comparisons, also noted that 28% of travelers intended to fly as much as they did before, and only 3% intend to fly less than before the pandemic.
“Business aviation continues to show that we are well past recovery mode and into growth mode. While we are seeing strong leisure demand in these numbers it appears we are looking at an industry that is 5% to 10% larger post-pandemic than it was pre-pandemic,” says Travis Kuhn, VP of Market Intelligence at ARGUS International.
The Reasons for Flying
The availability and reliability of private aviation during the pandemic have also shifted the reasons for travel.
Types of flying before the pandemic:
-
52% = combination of personal/vacation/business
-
44% = personal/vacation only
-
4% = business only
Post-pandemic (July 2021):
-
43% = combination of personal/vacation/business
-
54% = personal / vacation only
-
3% = business only
More travelers are choosing private aviation for personal travel, after discovering the increased health and biosafety benefits during the pandemic.
The Reasons for Choosing Private Aviation
The majority of respondents said they chose private aviation to avoid the hassles of commercial travel. Private jet travel advantages include:
-
Smaller private airports and aircraft mean increased biosafety
-
Check-in and security processes are much quicker
-
Greater scheduling flexibility
-
Higher standard of inflight service
