Private jet experience?

[MARTINE]

Hello fellow travellers - still dreaming of overseas travel resuming so .. thought I’d amp up the imagination . Will I get to travel on a private jet as part of my bucket list. I note that many companies now sell ‘empty legs’, QATAR (I think has a product)..so this thread is asking - has anyone had experience to Europe return / costs / feedback and where to go for infoemsyion
I know it’s all irrelevant at this time with borders closed but it’s fun to dream....

No experience with international private jets but have had a couple of flights with netjets in the US. That'd be one way to tick it off your bucket list.

You could give this crowd a call and check their rates. They're taking the Australian Cricket Team to the UK

La Compagnie Airbus A321LR at Perth Airport

There is a bit of chatter around the websites about this pretty unusual visitor to Perth The consensus seems to be that it is a charter to fly the Australian Cricket Team to the UK. The interior, all J, looks pretty nice for a 'narrow body'...

are you talking about a private private jet flight? or a commercial flight that has only you as the passenger??

I am looking at flying non-commercial but NOT necessarily just me (and my family). This QATAR link shows their services which range from private plane just for the one customer booking ($$$++) to "empty" leg flights (still $$$ but less $$$). Has anyone had any experience. when you click on booking links the seats and jets and availability show but no prices!! I was just interested as I am planning non-existent travel atm. Roughly how much such a flight would be say Qatar-European capital city destination assuming I would fly into Doha to catch. ideas??

I love the dreaming But I would never catch such a flight. A few years ago a Brazilian soccer team showed what happens when "important" pax overrule the crew's authority. That plane crashed because one of the stars delayed the flight because he insisted he get some personal gear he had mistakenly put in his hold luggage - that delay meant the plane missed a window for mid-route refueling. The crew still flew, thinking they would make it, but a slight glitch caused by another aircraft's problem put them in a holding pattern they had no reserves to survive..... Flying is VERY safe, but the numbers plummet in non-standard commercial travel.
