Private Jet Charter

Turboprop Aircraft

A turboprop engine is a jet engine attached to a propeller, whereby the turbine at the back is turned by hot gases, which consequently turns a shaft that drives the propeller. Many small airliners and transport aircraft are powered by turboprop engines, and they provide an efficient as well as cost effective way of taking advantage of private air travel.

With the increased affordability of private jet aircraft for charter the lighter turboprops were for some time somewhat overshadowed by their newer, faster cousins, however it is interesting to note that the turboprop aircraft is making something of a comeback, with one of the few remaining manufacturers reporting sales quadrupling in recent years, and expecting a continued upsurge. With high petrol prices, uncertain economic conditions, and public concerns over climate change, the re-emergence of this particular form of aircraft is well timed.

Turboprops are some of the most efficient aircraft in the skies, using only sixty four per cent of fuel per seat in comparison to the average jet aircraft, so it's no surprise that both air transport providers and customers have renewed their interest in them. By chartering a turboprop aircraft you can probably save as much as thirty per cent as a result of fuel efficiency and higher seating capacity. With high fuel prices continuing to effect charter costs, passengers should not be averse to considering the more cost effective turboprops.

The added bonus of the resurgence of turboprops is that not only can frequent private jet charter customers save money by opting for a cheaper turboprop, but that the lower costs of these aircraft also open up the world of private air charter to a new demographic, to those who have only ever flown via commercial services, and who, despite the more attainable costs involved in private charter in this day and age, have still not been in a financial position to consider making the switch. Now, with turboprop charters growing in popularity, people can get access to private planes at much lower costs. As commercial airlines and airports become increasingly expensive and difficult to deal with, private charter becomes more appealing than ever. More private individuals and corporate executives are turning to turboprop flights to take vacations and to travel to conferences and meetings. Turboprop aircraft make private flying more affordable and more accessible for all.
