The Transatlantic Passage — Conducted in Distinction

The route from Miami to London represents one of the great transatlantic corridors of private aviation — a journey of approximately three thousand seven hundred nautical miles, traversing the open Atlantic with a heavy or ultra-long-range aircraft.

Where commercial aviation would subject the traveller to crowded terminals, inflexible schedules, and the tedium of a packed cabin, private charter offers a journey of remarkable serenity. One departs Opa-locka at the hour of one's choosing, and arrives at London Luton refreshed, composed, and ready for affairs in the British capital.

The journey east across the Atlantic, with its five-hour advance in time, is an experience unlike any other in private aviation — and one which we are privileged to arrange for our most discerning clientele.

Volume V · The Journey

The Journey Awaits

The great circle route carries your aircraft northward from Florida, over the Carolinas, and across the North Atlantic. The ocean below stretches to the horizon in every direction — a passage of remarkable solitude.

Aboard a heavy or ultra-long-range aircraft, the cabin becomes a private sanctuary. Sleep in a fully flat bed, dine on cuisine prepared to your specification, conduct meetings in the forward club section, or simply gaze upon the vast Atlantic from altitude.

London Luton receives private arrivals with efficiency and discretion. From there, the City, Mayfair, and the West End are within easy reach. You arrive having completed the night's work — or, if you prefer, having slept it away in perfect comfort.
