In December, business slows down –or stops – school lets out and everyone is faced with the decision about what to do during the festive season. Some stay home for Christmas, others visit family, some get away for either Christmas or New Years – or both! How about a Valentine’s Day escape?
At Million Air Dallas, we help people get to interesting and fun places with safety, service and style. When you charter a jet, you can get to some of the best places with no worries about queues, baggage or parking.
So, where are Million Air clients going this year?
Many savvy travelers rely on the Conde Nast Traveler Gold List to guide them to stunning resorts where the service and amenities are the best to be found.
The Turks and Caicos island group has seen an upsurge in interest this year as one of the less crowded, warm-destination getaways. Flying non-stop from Dallas into Providenciales, you might wish to stay at the Grace Bay Club since it has, once again, made the Gold List for 2011.
Also on the Gold List is The Ritz Carlton on Seven Mile Beach in Grand Cayman. This particular stretch of sand has been called the best swimming beach in the Caribbean. You can walk into the warm water and start snorkeling right by the shore. There are restaurants up and down the seven miles of beachfront that can suit any taste.
The One and Only Ocean Club on Paradise Island in the Bahamas offers a relatively nearby destination with a lot of activity nearby, including casinos and local markets.
If you prefer to head for the mountains, The Little Nell in Aspen, CO, will give you a cozy place to which you can return at the end of an exhilarating day of skiing on the slopes above.
Likewise, the Stein Eriksen Lodge in Park City, UT, puts you in the heart of the skiing action while adding an extra bonus in the form of some wonderful varieties of food, such as the Norwegian potato cakes offered with breakfast. Equally famous are the garlic cheese fries available with lunch or the wonderful house-made chocolates. The extensive wine cellar will complete your fine dining experience each evening, as you contemplate the next days action on the slopes.
All of these places, and many more, will be visited by jets from Million Air Dallas over the coming Christmas and New Year. Give us a call at (972)733-5877 or visit us online to tell us where you would like to go.

Traveling the skies in style also means avoiding the hustle and hassle of major airports. Learn how a fixed-base operator (FBO) can help improve your cross-country travel experiences.
- Definition and Duties: A fixed-base operator is responsible for a number of aviation support duties. The U.S. Department of Transportation and Federal Aviation Association officially define an FBO as a “commercial business granted the right by the airport sponsor to operate on an airport and provide aeronautical services.” FBOs are typically owned and operated by private entrepreneurs. Thus, the total services of fixed-base operator may vary from location to location.
- Typical FBO Services: An FBO is typically oriented toward private pilots and career aviators. As a result, the full duties of a fixed-base operator will reflect the needs of local clientele. Services you are likely to find at nearly any FBO include sale of gas for private jets, fuel for turbine planes, pilot training, aircraft maintenance, and rental. Upscale FBOs also offer charter flights, jet acquisition assistance, and aircraft management services.
- FBO Staff: Aside from the owner and administrator, the staff at an FBO can vary widely. Oftentimes, the services of the business dictate the scope of their employee staff. Most will utilize the services of a trained aviation mechanics and customer service staff. Larger operations will hire personnel to run restaurants and snack shops. Drivers provide transportation from the FBO to hotels or other accommodations.
As a certified FBO, Million Air Dallas is also a Dallas-Fort Worth area leader in jet charter and aircraft management services. Chartered flights offer the flexibility, privacy, and comfort unavailable to commercial airline customers.
