A great benefit of private jet travel is the opportunity to indulge in special catering. Forget commercial’s standard salted peanuts. Choices abound when you fly privately. The culinary team at Air Chef, a major jet charter catering service, has created new menus influenced by diverse flavors across the U.S. Below is a sampling of their regional specialties for a superb in-flight dining experience.

Chef Saverio Mongelli highlights NY’s Italian roots with dishes such as:

POLO ROLLATINI ~ Chicken Breast Stuffed with Provolone Cheese Porcini Mushrooms, Oven Dried Tomatoes and Arugula served with a Lentil and Pearl Onion Ragout.

Chef Isaias Ramirez uses the regional menu of Dallas, Texas for a down-home “Ranch Hand” breakfast:

HUEVOS RANCHEROS ~ Spanish Manchego Cheese Scrambled Eggs with Crisp Tortillas, Sautéed Potatoes, Refried Beans and Fresh Salsa Picante.

Chef Miguel Sanchez incorporates San Francisco’s “California Cuisine” with flair:

SHOYU SEARED LAMB ~ Thai Chili and Soy marinated Roasted Lamb Rack served with Braised Bok Choy and Coconut Rice.

Here is my target destination for the future. http://www.aventurearctique.com/realise/ellesmere/carte_generale_ellesmere.gif

I’m not going there this year, this summer it’s the Yukon. But I WILL visit Ellesmere Island (Grise Fjord) before I die. It’s a plan. Ellesmere Island makes Yellowknife look like it’s near the equator!

But how can I CHEAPLY get to Ellesmere Island and camp on the base fjord?

So far this is what I found
1) By Air
-Fly or Drive to Ottawa at the beginning and end of trip ($150.00)
-Take First Airlines to Resolute Bay, changing planes in Iqaluit, NU (C$3,820)
-Take Kenn Borek Air Charter from Resolute Bay to Grise Fjord, Ellesmere Island. (UNKNOWN COST)
Could cost $5,000 or more!

Another method of getting there was an arctic cruiseline of some sort? Does anyone know how I can get there?
If we can get there, we’ll be safe from Swine Flu pandemic in a paradise of 24-hour sunshine and glacial ice and polar bears and breathtaking fjords

Why don’t Canadians make a voyage there as a group sometime? Like to celebrate if the Leafs win the Stanley Cup Finals?

While the idea of tossing a few things into a bag and jetting away is appealing, the reality of traveling light often isn’t feasible. This is particularly true if you’re off to the golf course, skiing, or traveling with children. Despite the best intentions to keep things simple you may require more than one suitcase or return from your travels with more than you departed with.

Jet configurations can vary but here are some general guidelines to ensure your comfort and safety. Jets at full capacity typically accommodate one medium-sized bag per person. Of course, if your jet is not fully occupied you may adjust your luggage accordingly. On average, the maximum number of bags for Light Jets is 6, Mid-Sized is 7, and Large Jets is 10.

Alert your charter operator if you plan to travel with large items (ie: golf clubs, skis), or if your luggage requirements fall outside these guidelines. Separate shipping is also an option. This way you can enjoy the flight knowing your belongings will be waiting when you arrive at your destination.

Long hours in airports waiting for delayed flights often mean business slipping away from your hands, not to mention the additional monetary loss. When it comes to attending important business meetings or leisure travel private air charter seems to be a practical choice. It is a convenient, faster, simpler, and customized way to travel to every nook and corner of the world.

What further adds to its benefits is its ability to fly in and out of smaller suburban airports. So follow the checklist mentioned below before reaching any final decision regarding which air charter plane would the be best one for you.

Select the Right Charter Operator: Conduct a search in the yellow pages or in major search engines for the charter companies. Look out for online directories of FAA authorized charter operators, aircrafts on offer and their location.

Authenticate the Charter Company: Go through the official documentation carefully to authenticate the advertising claims made by air charter companies. To simplify the entire process you can divide the background check process into three steps:

FAA Documentation – Check out whether the charter company has a validation of Part 135 air taxi certificate. You can ask for a photocopy of the “Air Carrier Certificate” that is issued by the FAA. Insurance – A charter company’s insurance provides a great deal of information about it. Third Party Audits – The best method of verification is to directly contact ARG/US or Wyvern. Since ARG/US & Wyvern has several databases, including the Department of Transportation (DOT), FAA, and one on aircraft transactions, it will help you to conclude about the safety records of the operator, its aircraft and pilot.

Pay a Visit to the Company: Personal meetings with the staff of the charter company, a close look at their facilities, and doing a tour in their aircraft help to obtain information about a company.  It will assist you to estimate the level of service that the company can offer.

Checkout the Customer Service: Go for a company that offers live help facility round the clock. It proves to be beneficial in case you make a special request, change your plans, or ask a question. If the company offers you a single contact person who is responsible for your trip then a lot of misunderstandings and confusion can be avoided.

Select an Aircraft: Do not go by the photographs of aircraft provided by charter companies as they can be misleading. Insist on inspecting the aircraft in person. As insurance levels change from time to time and differ according to the aircraft, check the copy of the aircraft’s insurance policy before your flight.

Check the Pilot’s Background: Check the minimum pilot hours of the pilot of your aircraft. Since different jet types call for different pilot hours verify that your pilot has the necessary number of pilot hours required for your kind of craft.

Calculate the Cost-Effectiveness: Be clear and specific when it comes to the cost effectiveness of your air charter plane. Fixed prices, soft prices, charges for various services, extra fees for booking on a short notice – check out every small detail. Always ask for a hard quote and don’t be satisfied with a vague estimate.

Air charter planes are one of the safest options to travel with any amount of luxury you want. It can actually save you a lot of time and money in the long run.
