What the experts are saying about smarter business travel..does it really help
May 13th
On an regular basis articles appear about smarter business travel but very little of the advice seems to help. You can take your personal GPS so that you don’t get lost once you are on the ground and on your way to a client meeting, or pack carefully and wear slip on shoes to get through security more quickly, but none of this will help you when the plane is delayed and you are going to miss your meeting. Not everyone us the option to fly privately but if you looked at the cost savings you could fly “semi-privately” – that is share the private jet with others. Doing this would allow business travelers to finally have control over there schedules and probably less time on the road because the travel would be more efficient. Being a member of jet-it-together.com is a great way to connect with others for sharing jet trips. If you are part of a company that has an intranet you may be able to work with your corporate travel manager or HR to create a place to post travel plans as well as information about sharing private jet options. This way employees can communicate with one another to figure out whether or not they could share a private jet trip. Another option is to connect through TripIt on LinkedIn to find out people’s travel plans and see if you could fly together privately.
Bad weather and cancelled flights, again
Mar 14th
Again, the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic are being pelted by driving rain and wind and the commercial airlines are cancelling flights. This is what should be done to keep everyone safe but how do we figure out when we are really going to get on a delayed/cancelled flight? Everytime I call an airline for information I have to push a million buttons to not get the answer I want or I am placed on hold for a very long time. Plus, the web sites don’t have accurate information. Flying privately may cost more, www.jet-it-together.com, but I do have a customer service group that I can talk to who gives me real information and actually calls me with trip status.
Charter to Bahamas and Caribbean
Feb 25th
I was helping a friend plan a trip in March from Boston for 4 to Eleuthera. I didn’t have the “plan a trip” feature of Jet-It-Together to compare alternatives to commercial travel to south Florida or to Nassau in the Bahamas for a charter flight onward to the islands.
How many of you reading this blog plan to travel to the Bahamas or the Caribbean in the coming months for a winter or spring vacation? What destinations are of interest– the Bahamas, US or British Virgins, Greater or Lesser Antilles; should we focus on providing opportunities to share flights to the islands?

Private Jet Travel On The Rise
Feb 23rd
Today’s New York Times, 2/22/09, has an interesting article by Joe Sharkey in the Business Section. In his weekly column Mr. Sharkey writes about private business travel being on the rise. This is definitely worth reading. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/23/business/23road.html.
After the reaction to the CEOs traveling on private jets to Washington, D.C.,many companies pulled back on private jet travel. This combined with the downward turn in the market saw a slide in private jet use for business travel. Mr. Sharkey points out that many people who hadn’t traveled on commercial jets for years were forced to do so and ultimately were very unhappy with the experience. No surprise there. Now these same travelers are going back to private jet travel but are looking for a less expensive way to do it. That is where Jet-It-Together comes in. People want to travel privately for less and are flexible on how they will do it. This could prove very interesting.
