Booking a private jet might sound like a complex or exclusive process—but with the right charter partner, it’s refreshingly simple.

How To Pay For A Private Jet Booking
Step 1: Submit a Charter Request
It all starts with your charter inquiry.
You can request a quote directly on our website atlanticaircharter.com by filling out our quick charter request form. You’ll be asked to provide basic flight information, such as:
· Departure and arrival cities
· Preferred travel dates and times
· Number of passengers
· Aircraft preferences (if any)
· One-way, round-trip, or multi-leg itinerary
· Any special requirements (pets, catering, extra luggage, etc.)
You can also call our team directly if you need immediate assistance or want to discuss your options in detail.

Step 2: Receive Your Custom Quote
Once we receive your request, our charter specialists will begin sourcing aircraft options from our vetted network. We’ll typically present you with one to three aircraft choices based on your preferences, with pricing and photos included for comparison.
Your quote will include:
· Aircraft type and features (seating, range, amenities)
· Hourly or total charter cost
· Flight time estimate
· FBO (private terminal) information
· Crew details and service inclusions
We pride ourselves on transparent pricing—no hidden fees or surprise charges. Everything is clearly explained so you can make an informed decision.

Step 3: Confirming Your Booking
When you're ready to move forward, all we need is your approval and a few documents to finalize the reservation. You'll receive a Charter Agreement, which outlines the terms of the flight, cancellation policies, and other key details.
You’ll also be asked to provide:
· Passenger names and IDs for the manifest
· Any special requests or catering preferences
· Ground transportation details (if needed)
Once the contract is signed and payment is arranged, your aircraft and crew are reserved.

Step 4: Payment Options
We offer flexible and secure payment methods to make booking your flight convenient and stress-free.
Accepted Payment Methods:
· Wire Transfer: The most common method for private charter payments. Fast, secure, and internationally accepted.
· Credit or Debit Card: Available for most flights, with processing fees applicable.
· ACH (Bank Transfer): Domestic bank-to-bank payments accepted for eligible clients.
· Jet Cards or Prepaid Accounts: For frequent fliers, Atlantic Air Charter offers flexible membership options—ask us for details.
We recommend submitting payment as soon as possible after signing the agreement, as aircraft availability can change rapidly—especially during peak travel periods.

Step 5: Pre-Flight Concierge Coordination
Once your flight is confirmed and payment is processed, the Atlantic Air Charter team shifts into full-service mode.
Our concierge will handle:
· Ground transportation to and from the FBO
· In-flight catering (from snacks to full-course meals)
· Special touches: champagne, floral arrangements, business materials, etc.
· Coordination with your assistant, security detail, or travel manager
· Pet travel needs, children’s accommodations, and medical requests
You’ll also receive your itinerary confirmation with all relevant details, including departure time, FBO location, and tail number.

Step 6: Day-of-Flight Experience
On the day of your flight, you’ll arrive at the private terminal (FBO) of your departure airport. These are typically separate from the commercial terminals and offer secure, discreet access.
Expect:
· Valet or direct-to-plane parking
· No security lines or TSA checkpoints
· A quick check-in with your ID
· Immediate boarding and takeoff—often within 15 minutes of arrival
Our crew will greet you onboard and ensure your comfort throughout the journey. Once you’re in the air, sit back and enjoy a smooth, quiet flight tailored just for you.

Booking Your Private Charter Flight
After your flight, we’ll follow up to ensure everything met your expectations. If you’re a frequent flyer, we can keep your preferences on file for even faster booking in the future.
Atlantic Air Charter offers Jet Card Memberships and custom charter packages for those who travel often. Ask our team about locking in preferred pricing, guaranteed availability, and priority scheduling.
We recommend booking at least 48–72 hours in advance when possible, especially for long-distance flights or peak travel dates. However, we can accommodate same-day bookings based on availability.
Can I change or cancel my flight?
Yes, although change and cancellation policies depend on the aircraft operator and timing. Your Charter Agreement will include these terms clearly, and our team will always work to provide maximum flexibility.
Do you offer one-way or empty leg pricing?
Absolutely. If your travel plans are flexible, ask us about empty leg flights—these are repositioning flights offered at a reduced rate. We also specialize in one-way travel throughout Florida and the U.S.
Are there limits on luggage?
Each aircraft has its own baggage capacity. If you’re traveling with oversized items (golf clubs, equipment, etc.), just let us know, and we’ll match you with the appropriate aircraft.
Can I bring pets?
Yes—Atlantic Air Charter is pet-friendly! We’ll make sure your furry companion flies just as comfortably as you do.
