Christmas Lights Anyone?
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. You are probably still full and now it is time to hang the Christmas lights. We are about to do the same. What a task! It’ll be fun and definitely more family time – that’s always a good thing! I suppose we have it easy since we are forced to use a fake Christmas tree to prevent fires. Our cats like to climb trees and a real one is a big fire hazard and water spills everywhere (all over the gifts) so we have resigned to accept the fake one and just buy other scented items trying to compensate for that lovely fresh Christmas Tree scent.
Believe it or not – today isn’t too busy of a day of private jet charter for Exquisite Air Charter. Saturday and Sunday are our busy days. It’s great to get family to and from their loved ones for the holidays and, of course, we love being busy!
Well, I kept my word and I blogged again today. I realize I didn’t say anything too interesting. I kept it short and sweet but check back tomorrow. I am working on a great (and informative) post.
Have a wonderful day with you family and don’t forget to hang the lights!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Please allow me to first apologize for not keeping up on this blog. I promise to do a better job. Exquisite Air Charter has been growing so much over the past six months that sometimes you forget about some of your goals. This blog site was originally created to allow our customers and potential customers to have an insight into who we are as a company and to utilize this blog for resources, entertainment and so much more. In addition to this blog site and our Private Jet Charter Site (Exquisite Air Charter) we have also developed a forum for the Private Jet Charter customer. The forum can be found at PrivateJetConnections.com. I hope you enjoy the family of sites that we have created to make all of your charter flights the best available…. afterall, that’s what we are the best at!
For those of you who don’t know, Exquisite Air Charter also runs a charity – Angel Wing Flights. Within the past few months we have had the opportunity to reach out to the Vikings who then paid for an older player of theirs to return to Northern California (from Minnesota) to spend his last few days with his family. It was great to be a part of bringing him home but, sadly, he only lived a few days once he got to Northern California. His dying wish was to die with his family and we were able to be a part of granting that wish. That is one of the many things we are grateful for this year. We are grateful that we have survived another year in this economy. We hear so many stories about competitors of ours falling victim to the economy and closing their doors. We hear about companies falsifying documents (serious documents) and actually operating without an FAA certificate to do so (and guess what? that also means no insurance). We urge you to make sure that you are chartering with someone reputable. If your charter flights are arranged with Exquisite Air Charter we provide you with documents showing everything.
OK – time to go start preparing for the holiday! I have so much to be thankful for.
Until tomorrow – yes! I said tomorrow! I’m going to be better at this blogging thing!
Happy Thanksgiving!







Leisure destinations by Private Jet Top 10:
1. Aspen, CO: The perennial ski favorite – There is no better way to experience it than flying direct into Aspen.
2. Jackson Hole, WY: Skiing and winter recreation in this “last of the old west” favorite is more popular than ever. Recent additions of several upscale resorts such as the Four Seasons add to the allure. The Jackson Hole airport is seeing a constant increase in winter traffic.
3. Las Vegas, NV: Las Vegas remains a popular winter warm-weather destination playground, and increasing numbers are learning that nothing is more “Las Vegas” than arriving at the playground in your chartered private jet.
4. Cabo San Lucas, Mexico: Direct private flights to “Cabo” make this Mexican beach resort town very accessible and convenient. Customs is a breeze when the agent boards your private plane to only verify your passport.
5. Eagle/Vail, CO: Another Rocky Mountain ski mecca; excellent snowfall and the ability to fly direct to Eagle combine to earn Eagle the middle spot in the Top Ten.
6. Sun Valley, ID: The town of Ketchum, Idaho and Sun Valley ski area are a popular getaway and a break from the Colorado ski crowds. The convenience of private jet travel puts Sun Valley only a two-hour flight from almost half the US.
7. Cancun, Mexico: Tropical sun and beaches combined with the flavorful Mexican culture make for an ideal break from the Northern winter. The escape is only a 3-hour private jet ride from Chicago.
8. Caribbean Islands: These islands include Anguilla, Antigua, St. Kitts, St. Martin, St. Barts and many more. It seems that EVERYONE likes to take a private jet getaway to the islands… and, of course, why wouldn’t they?
9. Miami, FL: Florida is the most popular winter destination for leisure private charters from New York and the Northeast. Miami edged West Palm Beach for Florida destinations, and ranks overall in the Top Ten.
10. Salt Lake City, UT: The legendary Utah ski resorts are less than an hour car ride from the airport’s private jet ramp. As the gateway to Utah skiing and a popular destination from the West Coast, the excellent snow season helped Salt Lake City rank 10th overall for winter private jet destinations.
