I recently met up with one of the directors of Kamo Aviation based in Johannesburg, South Africa to find out more about their business and the services they offer. It was an interesting chat.
Kamo Aviation specialises in aircraft sales, lease and maintenance. The first thought that came to mind was that this must surely be a service only for celebrities and the rich. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Most people such as myself, think that flying private is a luxury that only the rich or celebrities can afford. That may have been true a while ago but flying private or hiring an aircraft to take you to your destination be it on holiday or business is now more accessible to the average person.
In reality, more than half of all private flights are taken by business people on tight schedules. This is because, most private flights are taken to save time as opposed to being taken to have a more luxurious experience.
Booking a private charter for yourself, the family, a business or religious group is actually very easy when dealing with a knowledgeable and experienced company such as kamo Aviation. The experience can be just as simple as booking a commercial flight I was told. Interesting , isn’t it ?
From what I gathered from the experts at Kamo aviation , flying private is much more than comfort. Some of the other benefits include :
Spending less time on the ground. You get to spend less time in terms of checking in , going through long immigration queues and heading to your gate. You avoid those horrible long queues we all hate. You can arrive at airports in minutes and be airborne in minutes as opposed to hours. That’s time well spent.
You also get flexible pick up and drop off locations due to the size of the jets. Small jets or aircrafts don’t need huge runways. They can fly out of smaller airports. You fly when you want and when you get off the plane your bags are thrown straight into your car so there is no time spent retrieving baggage at the baggage carousel.
For those on business trips, you get to do your work in private without all the noise and disturbances flying commercial brings. Privacy in the air to get work done is definitely a bonus.
When you fly commercial , you adjust your schedule to meet the needs of the airline but when you fly private, it’s the other way around.
