Throughout the pandemic, limiting the sizes of groups was a common theme. But now that many restrictions have eased and businesses are eager to resume normal operations, there’s been a resurgence in group travel. However, many remain focused on health and safety just as they did in the early days of the pandemic.
Private jet charters are inherently safe and socially distanced, which is why many businesses that have never flown private in the past are now using it as a first choice. Clients have greater control over their onboard experience. Aircraft are smaller and can be cleaned more thoroughly between guests. And the entire aircraft is reserved just for you and your travel party.
At Access Jet Group, we appreciate the fact that you need a trustworthy, reliable way to keep business going without doing so at the cost of your employees’ health. That’s why we’re committed to providing the best of both worlds: efficient travel in a clean, sanitized environment.
Here’s how we’re improving the group charter experience as COVID continues to be a top concern among businesses and its employees:
Group Charter Safety: Before Every Flight
Access Jet Group has an extensive network of more than 7,000 aircraft and operators around the world. We hold all of our partners to very high standards and work only with those who take health and safety as seriously as we do. This includes maintaining proper COVID-19 safety protocols.
Your dedicated concierge can go into more detail about the multiple measures we take to maintain a safe, clean environment for you and your group. If you have additional requests to put your guests at ease, we encourage you to speak with your concierge to make these arrangements. From seating arrangements to maintaining social distancing while boarding, no request is too great or too small to honor. All charter flights are customizable to create the experience you and your group deserve.
Group Charter Safety: At the Airport
Private charter flights already offer a host of increased health benefits, such as limiting your time and exposure in the airport, shorter security lines, and fewer public touchpoints. However, we are also available to implement additional safety measures at the airport to customize your experience even more.
Some suggestions include but are not limited to:
- Staggering the arrival and boarding of your group members
- Adding social distancing markers to queues
- Implementing multiple check-in desks
- Providing masks and other PPE to guests
- Taking temperature checks before boarding
- Offering hand sanitizer at critical touchpoints
- Setting up an offsite check-in process
- Allowing passengers to scan their own boarding passes
- Handling your own luggage
These are just a few of the ways we can help you customize your airport experience. If you have other ideas, we’d love to hear them!
Group Charter Safety: On the Aircraft
Prior to every flight, we arrange for a deep aircraft cleaning so that you are stepping into the cleanest possible environment. We can also ensure that each guest is provided with hand sanitizer and a mask to use throughout the duration of the flight.
While providing snacks and tailored catering is also a specialty, we have found that many guests prefer a bagged food service experience to limit interaction and contact with crew members. We will continue to cater to any food allergies and preferences to ensure all members of your group are taken care of.
Traveling Safely as a Group with Access Jet Group
All of the above suggestions can be tailored to your unique needs and specifications. This is one reason why we provide each client with a dedicated concierge service — so you can trust the livelihood of your entire trip to one in-the-know person.
It’s time to allow group travel to thrive once more so that business can keep moving forward. If you have additional questions on our group charter safety protocols or have specific requests, reach out to our team to see how we can serve you.
