Beauty Queens on A Private Jet Charter

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

newflight_chartersI work in the beauty pageant industry as a producer. Every year we spend a huge amount of money on commercial airline tickets for the contestants. I had to find a way to lessen the expenses and design a more systematic/organized travel itinerary, so I asked for suggestions from my friends. Many of them said that I should just hire a private jet charter because every year the contestants have plenty of accumulated flying hours to different cities that they visit prior to the pageant. I didn’t want to listen at first. I couldn’t understand how I can save with an air charter provider.

A friend found out about a private jet company that can offer the lowest- priced group tour rates through Forbes Magazine. One of my assistants called New Flight Charters to inquire about group rates for a three-week period. We needed a plane for pre-pageant activities and for the winner’s trip going to the first outreach assignment. After I read the proposal sent by their customer service agents, I was so thrilled to present it to the sponsors for approval. This year, we will be flying the contestants on board a private jet for the first time. We already signed an agreement with NFC to be our private jet provider for the next five years.

I used to be an impulse buyer but after being inspired by cbn.com’s article entitled, “How You Can Start Spending Smart“  I started to limit my wants. Most of the time, our “wants” are the ones hurting our budget a lot. Just recently, I wanted to have new eyeglasses to match my white laptop. I did my research and found that there are $ 8 Rx eyeglasses matching my wanted eyeglasses. It was My favorite high fashion eyeglasses and I’m proud to say that I’ve been resourceful enough and saved myself a lot of bucks by doing so.
