Save Over 3 Hours Per Flight!

Ten Ways of Saving Time by Flying with AeroShares

Time is a critical resource for today’s business leaders and professionals. Traveling privately with AeroShares on the Pilatus PC-12 provides a significant advantage by saving over three hours per leg of travel compared to commercial flights. Here’s a breakdown of the ten time savings that make flying with AeroShares the smart choice for professionals who value their time.


1. Drive to the Airport

  • AeroShares: Small Fixed Base Operators (FBOs) with minimal traffic offer a smooth, stress-free drive.

  • Commercial Flights: Navigating through busy terminals can add delays and stress right from the start.

  • Time Saved: 15 minutes

2. Parking

  • AeroShares: Free parking near your plane makes the entire process quick and seamless.

  • Commercial Flights: Finding parking, paying fees, and potentially taking a shuttle to the terminal consumes precious time.

  • Time Saved: 15 minutes

3. Check-In Process

  • AeroShares: You’re greeted personally by your crew, bypassing any lines or delays. If you have a lot of baggage, your vehicle can be driven right up to the aircraft for easy loading, making the check-in process even more convenient.

  • Commercial Flights: The typical check-in process includes lines, apps, and gate agents, which can be time-consuming.

  • Time Saved: 15 minutes

4. Security Checks

  • AeroShares: Forget about removing liquids and shoes; private flights skip the usual security hassle.

  • Commercial Flights: Commercial flights require lengthy security processes, including bag scans, personal item restrictions, and long lines.

  • Time Saved: 30 minutes

5. Waiting at the Gate

  • AeroShares: The plane is ready when you are, making waiting at the gate a thing of the past.

  • Commercial Flights: With commercial airlines, you wait to board in groups, often for others to arrive or for families to board first.

  • Time Saved: 30 minutes

6. Boarding

  • AeroShares: Boarding is quick and direct—just you and your party, boarding at your own pace.

  • Commercial Flights: Boarding commercial flights can be chaotic, with different groups boarding at different times, leading to further delays.

  • Time Saved: 15 minutes

7. Flight

  • AeroShares: Direct routing cuts down on flight time, especially when using smaller airports, with fewer delays and shorter taxi times.

  • Commercial Flights: Larger aircraft at busy airports often experience extended taxiing and air traffic delays, leading to longer overall flight times.

  • Time Saved: 30 minutes

8. Disembarking

  • AeroShares: Disembarking is a breeze—you exit the aircraft and head directly to your waiting transportation.

  • Commercial Flights: Disembarking commercial flights often involves long lines, waiting for other passengers, and navigating crowded jet bridges.

  • Time Saved: 20 minutes

9. Baggage Retrieval

  • AeroShares: Your bags are always on your flight, and they’re ready the moment you land—no waiting at baggage claim. Additionally, your vehicle can often be driven right up to the aircraft for easy unloading, adding even more convenience.

  • Commercial Flights: Waiting at the baggage claim, while luggage is unloaded from the plane, adds unnecessary delays.

  • Time Saved: 20 minutes

10. Leaving the Airport Facility

  • AeroShares: Step out of the FBO to your awaiting car or taxi—no hassle, no lines.

  • Commercial Flights: After retrieving your luggage, you may face long lines waiting for a rental car or taxi.

  • Time Saved: 20 minutes
