Thanks for the Great Service Sky Limo

Just wanted to take the time to write a quick testimonial about Sky Limo Air Charter. I’ve been doing business with them for about a year and a half now. I travel a lot for business between Florida and Chicago because I have several meetings I need to attend every month with my supervisors. Sky Limo’s private jet is always there on time waiting for me to board. The privacy and quietness in the private cabin is something I always look forward to. I would hate to deal with a commercial airline, the cramped seats, noise and hours spent at the airport trying to get work done on my laptop. On a private aircraft I’m comfortable and can get work done. I have yet to use Sky Limo for a leisure trip, but I have several vacation days coming up, I think I’m going to spoil my family and head somewhere nice and sunny on a private jet. I’m sure everyone will like it as much as I do.

Private Jet Charter Companies Help The Economy

According to an article entitled “ Business Aviation Means Millions of Highly Skilled Jobs” on NoPlaneNoGain.Org, business aviation contributes over $150 billion to the U.S. economy yearly and provides over 1.2 million high-wage, stable jobs. According to the article most of the general aviation aircraft worldwide are manufactured, operated, serviced and maintained in the U.S. Even those that are manufactured abroad are ‘completed’ in America by American workers adding avionics, electronics, automation systems, engines, paint and more. Support professions include schedulers, dispatchers, pilots, training professionals and more.

Beat Air Sickness, Fly on a Private Jet

Air Sickness can happen to anyone and is typically worst during take off and landing because of the sudden increase and decrease in speed and height, not to mention that you can actually see the ground rushing past you. Air sickness can be a physical or psychological reaction to what’s happening. You can feel nauseous, sweaty even have a stomach ache. But there are a few things you can do to minimize the air sickness. Try to relax and maybe even take an anti-air sickness tablet. Try to concentrate on something else, maybe a book or a movie. Something else that can help is to eat sparingly before getting on your flight because a full stomach can contribute to air sickness.

Another trick that can help is to fly on a private jet, like the ones chartered by Sky Limo Air Charter. You’ll benefit from a lot of space, comfort and privacy. You’ll feel more like you’re in a living room than an airplane. You can concentrate on your work or what’s to come after you land and be able to distract yourself. With the entire cabin to yourself, it will be quiet enough for you to relax and breathe easy. Plus, Sky Limo puts safety first so you’ll definitely be in good hands with your pilot and on board staff. Flying to your destination on a private aircraft can help control your air sickness, so the next time you need to fly think of Sky Limo.

Protect Yourself From the Swine Flu

If you need to travel within the next few days or maybe even weeks, Sky Limo Air Charter suggests you fly by private jet instead of commercial airline because of the swine flu breakout. The swine flu is a respiratory disease of pigs caused by type A influenza viruses that causes regular outbreaks in pigs. Human infections have lately been happening in the U.S. and in response, as of April 29, 2009, the World Health Organization raised the worldwide pandemic alert to Phase 5. If you need to make it to a business meeting, it’s wise to fly by yourself to decrease your risk of getting infected. On a private jet, you’ll have the entire cabin to yourself which also means privacy, comfort and even access to concierge services by Sky Limo. We can reserve your hotel room or car rental. All we need is about a 2 hours’ notice of where and when you want to fly and you can leave the rest up to us.

Whoopi Goldberg on a Private Jet

According to Blog.BollywoodOnDemand.com, Whoopi Goldberg is trying her best to beat her fear of flying. Last month she shuttled back and forth to LA by bus instead of flying there, where her show is being taped. But most recently, she flew to London where the musical version of Sister Act was being previewed. Whoopi Goldberg was accompanied by a doctor on the private aircraft that stood by with sedatives and needles in case she panicked, but she didn’t need him. The 53 year-old did just fine. If you’re scared to fly, do what Whoopi Goldberg did. Fly on a private jet. Reserve a charter flight with Sky Limo Air Charter. You’ll benefit from a very comfortable flight with lots of space to move around the cabin. You’ll be able to relax and make the best of your flight. Whether you’re flying for a business meeting or a leisure vacation, chartering a private jet with Sky Limo will make you feel like a VIP. You’ll be well taken care of and even have access to our concierge services. Our staff can reserve your hotel room, rent a car for you and even reserve special events tickets in case you’d like to attend a particular show.
