A cheap con operation in which people fill out a request for a private charter, but instead they get rung by salesmen trying to sell them fractional ownership in planes. Avoid at all costs. Cur... See more

PrivateFly - An Excellent Choice for Private Air Charter

My experience with PrivateFly has been exceptional. From my initial enquiry to see if they could fly my parents back to the UK from Spain, during the current pandemic, to the moment my parents disembarked the plane at Stansted, they were always right there, available to answer any questions and keep me updated.
This company is extremely professional, very competent, easy to contact and correspond with, and they deliver exactly what they advertise, with no fuss.
A first class company that offers a first class service. I would highly recommend PrivateFly to anyone considering using a private flight for their journey.

Everything was smooth and uneventful (which under the circumstances is no small feat). I have used Privatefly before and recommend them without reservations. The ultimate service, professionalism and perfection.

These guys were great

These guys were great. Bent over backwards to help me and my client, pulled out all the stops and got him where he and his family where he wanted to go, in total security and at what must have been the most challenging time in recent aviation history.

Recommendation

Facing an emergency and needing to bring my daughter back to the UK at short notice I contacted PrivateFly. From start to finish they were friendly, helpful, efficient and consummately professional. Everything happened according to plan with no detail left unattended. I would unhesitatingly recommend them.

Extremely satisfied

During the recent times with very limited flight options caused by COVID-19, there was an unexpected need for me to find a private flight for a dear acquaintance and his wife. After a careful search the passenger and I voted in favor of PrivateFly. I am so glad we did as the whole process was very smooth.
We received an offer for 3 aircraft within a few hours and the agreement was signed shortly. All our questions were answered with professionalism and in a very short time. We received details information regarding the whole process. Ground transportation was also provided so the passenger didn't have to worry about missing the flight.
On arrival at the departure airport the passengers received a warm welcome by the pilot himself and after arrival they had a safe landing in their home country. Both the passenger and myself are very pleased and satisfied with how our request was handled and finalized by PrivateFly. I sincerely recommend them to anyone who is looking for an alternative flight experience.

Stellar service before

Stellar service before, during, and after the flight. Lacks the “startup glitz” of seemingly similar services but makes up for it with personable attention by phone and email.

Great experience

Great experience overall, especially given we were especially specific on many aspects of the trip. Alex and Freddie were extremely helpful, and it is clear that Privatefly as an organisation are extremely meticulous when it comes to safety and quality of service and we would highly recommend using them!
