FBO basics for first-time private flyers
What happens after you land, ramp fees, and how ground transport links in.
On Get A Private Jet, we treat education as part of the quote. Flyers who understand positioning and category choice make faster, cleaner decisions — and waste fewer operator holds.
Across recent brokerage conversations, roughly 9 of 10 first-time requesters over-index on hourly stickers and under-index on empty miles. That is why every serious option set should show assumptions, not just a total.
Practical takeaway
- Define the mission (cities, timing, pax) before debating cabin brands.
- Ask what is included: FET, handling, Wi‑Fi, de-icing, overnight.
- Keep a backup plan when shopping empty legs.
