TRAVEL AGENTS Information

First of all, many experts agree that charter bookings by a travel agent should be made with a broker, not the individual aircraft charter company.

The broker has access to thousands of aircraft and can better accommodate the specific needs of the clients — right down to onboard catering or other amenities.

If you work directly with a charter company, you will need to have some level of expertise and know the right questions to ask.

The average travel agent may be quite comfortable selling a wealthy client an extensive cruise involving multiple suites but has almost no idea what to do if that same client wants to travel by private jet.

Most agents only know that the client wants a private jet. They don’t take the time to properly qualify the client, which involves asking questions about budget or what type of services he or she likes.

As with any charter broker, we don't own or operate our own fleet. Instead, we have access to 5,000 aircraft based all over the world.

No matter the source of the aircraft, Central Jet Charter Inc., ensures that the plane meets all federal requirements for safety and maintenance and that its crews are all experienced and hold the required licenses.

Important to know, too, is that instead of private flights leaving from the main terminal at an airport such as Los Angeles International Airport or Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport.

Charter flight passengers check in at a Fixed Base Operator (FBO), which is essentially a small, private terminal.

At most FBOs, passengers may drive their car right up to the door of the plane and be airborne within 10 minutes of arrival.

Travel Agent Commissions. The issue of commission paid to an agent for booking a flight with a broker is certainly far different than typical fixed commission.

In the charter industry, agent commissions are often added into the all-in price paid by the client.

An agent’s commission is not paid out of the broker’s fees or by the aircraft operator.

Instead, the amount of commission results from discussions between the broker and the agent, and that is then added to the price presented to the client.

Contacting an aircraft charter company directly, booking a flight and then marking up the quoted price to the client is also possible, though not recommended for an agent new to booking charters.
