As travelers, we’ve experienced first-hand the ups and downs of commercial air travel.
The excitement of traveling somewhere new, or even sharing a pre-flight meal in one of the great restaurants in the airport can certainly be considered one of the “ups”.
Of course, what goes up must come down, and those “downs” of commercial travel are often unexpected disruptions like delays or even cancellations.
These disruptions can upend your travel plans, sometimes leaving you stranded, wondering when you’ll be able to get home.
In the aviation industry, keeping flights on time is of utmost importance and carries its own term called ‘On Time Performance’ or OTP.
Bad weather, mechanical issues, and sometimes even crewing restrictions are all things that can affect the OTP of your flight.
Sometimes, these uncontrollable delays can cause such a lengthy trickle effect, that the commercial air carriers have no choice but to cancel some flights; unable to catch up to the original schedule all while attempting to keep upcoming flights on time.
When you use a private air charter you are not bound by the rigid schedules the commercial carriers need to follow. You can schedule around your time, giving you flexibility and reliability.
