What is aircraft positioning from Miami and what does it cost?
Positioning is the ferry of an aircraft to you when the right type isn't on site: usually from Fort Lauderdale or Orlando. It is billed at the chosen class's hourly rate and added to the flight cost; in high season positioning is shorter as aircraft are already nearby. Send us a request — we'll pick the aircraft, price it with positioning and arrange the flight for your task.
When is high season in Miami and how does it affect price?
High season runs December to April, peaking around Art Basel in December and the winter holidays. At peak, rates are higher and slots and parking go early; off-season is cheaper. Send us a request — we'll pick the aircraft, price it with positioning and arrange the flight for your task.

Which aircraft should I choose for a flight from Miami?

Can I fly with children, pets and baggage from Miami?
Yes — on a private flight a pet travels in the cabin, children are seated comfortably, and baggage depends on the aircraft class (a light jet takes 5–8 bags, a heavy jet 20–30). Oversize items and special requests are agreed at booking. Send us a request — we'll pick the aircraft, price it with positioning and arrange the flight for your task.
