What is the amount of luggage that I can take with me in a private jet?


Few things impact the amount of luggage that can be carried on a private jet flight: the size of your luggage, the number and weight of the passenger, and the aircraft type.
Our team can offer you a wide number of different aircraft from small light jets through to huge long-range jets with extended luggage capacity.

The luggage capacity for a private jet aircraft is given as a volume of cubic feet and as a general rule. In general one suitcase and one carry-on item per person.
However many aircraft can carry more luggage than one per passenger because often the aircraft is not full. For example, if there are two passengers for a small 4 seat jet you will be able to carry 2 sets of golf club extra.

Our agents will advise you of the luggage allowance of each aircraft.
