Tips For Luxury Family Travel





A family vacation is supposed to be fun, it’s supposed to be exciting, and if you're really lucky, luxurious! Starting with the mode of transportation. Why drive, when you can fly? Roads can really be dangerous, especially in CA; BattaFulkerson.com points out: “…every time you drive on California’s busy highways, there is a chance of having an accident. While most do not cause serious injuries or fatalities, you can expect the damage to your car to be expensive. Even a fender-bender can result in high repair costs.”




The last thing any family vacation needs is a vehicular accident. What is becoming more popular today ais chartering flights to specific locales, and then using local transportation options upon arrival, like bikes, rickshaws, cabs, crowdsourced transportation, public transit, or plain old walking. In many island communities, all you really need are a pair of legs and the health to use them, and you’ve got total access to the entire island. Bonaire in the Dutch Caribbean is like that.




There are many price-determining factors when booking a private charter. StratosJets.com points out: “For many, private travel is a pragmatic necessity. However, the choice often boils down to one simple question: How much is a private jet charter? Stratos offers two great purchase options to assist clients in procuring the air travel solutions that fit their needs and budget…”

Additionally, chartered flights can get you and your family into places that otherwise may not be easily reachable by commercial airlines and associated travel. This means you can truly “get away from it all” in a safe way which preserves vehicular stability and avoids unnecessary dangers silhouetting modern roadways.

Don't think you could even dream of affording a chartered flight? Think again, there are many ways these days to make money while you travel. You may even be able to underwrite the whole vacation. Of course, it all depends on your situation. Regardless, consider how to travel and to where, the cost offset for commercial flights, kennels, transportation and remote living... you never know, you may be flying your family chartered cheaper than commercial!
