Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Jet Charters

Philadelphia jet charter information

Referred to as either the “City of Brotherly Love” or simply “Philly” by its many residents, Philadelphia charter flights take you to the city central to American history. With the ringing of the Liberty Bell in the tower of Independence Hall, Philadelphia’s citizens were once called to witness the signing of the Declaration of Independence signed by the Founding Fathers of the United States, signaling the birth of a nation. The center of early American history, it was Quaker William Penn who founded Philadelphia in 1682 and declared it as the capital of the Pennsylvania colony. Philly played a major role in the fight for American independence and served as the meeting place for the Founding Fathers of the United States, including Ben Franklin, who hailed from the region. There are many historic sites located in Philadelphia, unsurprising for a city with such a rich past. One of the most important sites to see in Philadelphia is Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence was signed, followed closely by the nearby Liberty Bell with its famous crack.
