Super Bowl Weekend Kicks Off the Crowds with an Influx of Private Jets Touching Down in the Vegas Area
With Super Bowl LVIII just days away, the Las Vegas area is bracing itself for an influx of football fans. Nearby airports are gearing up for the increase in flights by bringing in additional staff and equipment as they anticipate lengthy wait times and possible congestion during busy travel hours. Major airlines have responded to the surge in demand by increasing the number of flights available. There is also a notable influx of private jets aiming to reach the host city with utmost efficiency, and PlaneSense® aircraft are often part of the mix. Slots at local airports fill up fast after the Super Bowl teams have been named. During the 2023 Super Bowl weekend, airports in the Phoenix Metro area saw roughly 4,000 more take-offs and 1,100 private jets than usual.
Flying privately allows fans to avoid all the hassle of commercial flights – organizing transportation, early arrival at the terminal, and long security lines. Maneuvering through airport crowds can take away from the joy of experiencing the biggest football game of the year alongside friends and family.
Opting for a private flight presents a remarkable solution, as it alleviates many of the travel-related headaches commonly associated with commercial flights. Instead of enduring lengthy waits at airport terminals, PlaneSense® clients use private terminals where they can promptly hand off their luggage to the flight crew and take off within minutes of stepping onto the aircraft. Additionally, private travel allows fans the freedom to set their own arrival and departure times surrounding any event, unlike commercial airlines, which are bound by fixed schedules and limited destinations. PlaneSense® share owners have the added benefit of the Flight Operations Team to schedule their flights, reserve slots, and schedule crews to get them to and from the game.
But the Super Bowl is just the beginning of a busy year of large sporting events that draw a large contingency of private aircraft. The Masters, Kentucky Derby, The U.S. Open, collegiate championships, and various auto racing events are known to fill local airports with private jets. Aircraft, such as the Pilatus PC-12 and PC-24 jet in the PlaneSense® fleet allow fans to land closer to the sporting venue, making the most of their valuable time.
