I inaccurately used the term "jet." What I meant was: chartering a
smaller plane (carrying 5-10 passengers or thereabouts) for the trip to
and fro.


But a plane that can carry 5-10 passengers is most likely going to be a jet.

You can squeeze 5 into some light twins (and even a couple of singles), not
counting the pilot, but you're going to be baggage-limited. Anything more
than that and you're talking a big twin, probably a jet.

In any case, my comments still stand. I gave you rough prices for the two
ends of the spectrum. You can expect charters for intermediate types of
airplanes (larger single-engine airplanes, piston twins, etc.) to fall
somewhere in between.

Of course, until you get an actual quote from an actual charter operator for
an actual flight, you won't really know what the cost would be.

Pete
