"Hi everyone. I'm Russ Handler, travel expert, and I just love occasionally when I get to fly on a private jet. They're not only comfortable, but fun. Did you know, private jet is any plane for hire that is non commercial? In other words, they're commercial in some sense, but they're for hire to anyone. Now, if you ever want to buy, or rather rent, a private jet for your company or for a family vacation, not a bad way to go. Here's how you do it. I'm going to suggest that you go to your local airport. Any big airport has a jet reservation service. There's generally an adjacent small airport right on the grounds of your major airport, which can definitely hook you up and put you in touch with the right person to get your jet. A couple of ways you can do it. You can get a private owner's jet. A private owner and operator will give you the jet for a fixed price plus all the services you need. Another thing you can do is get the jet only. And that's if you're a pilot or you have a pilot, you can easily just rent that without the extra added services. But there's another way to go about this. That's an online auction site. There's several out there. They all offer opportunities to get your hands on a private jet for customized reasons. All you need to do is do your homework and make sure that you're getting the best for your money. And totally ensure that the jet that you're going to use has a great safety rating. That's how you do it. I'm Russ Handler."
