Service Scope
How Private Jet Holidays works
High-touch travel with private access, premium stays, and special logistics.
Private Jet Holidays at Taro Voyages is a charter flight service to destinations worldwide, covering zero-layover routing, cabin configuration, onboard privacy, and flexible scheduling.
The mathematics of private jet travel are simpler than most people assume. For a group of four or more travelling long-haul, the cost difference from business class narrows considerably — while the experience difference becomes incomparable.
No queues. No fixed schedules. No layovers. A private terminal experience (FBO) with none of the airport theatre. Meals catered exactly to your preferences. A cabin that is yours alone. Arrival closer to where you actually want to be, not where commercial aviation decides.
We arrange private jet charters for short hops — Mumbai to Udaipur in 45 minutes — to intercontinental journeys on ultra-long-range aircraft. We work with India's leading charter operators and international brokers to find the right aircraft, at the right price, for every client.
Whether it's a spontaneous escape to the Maldives, a family trip to Europe with young children, a business trip where time is money, or a group celebration where the journey should be part of the luxury — private aviation transforms travel into something else entirely.
The FBO (Fixed Base Operator) experience deserves its own description: a private terminal with a dedicated lounge, no security queues, immigration at a dedicated desk, a direct walk across the tarmac to your aircraft, and a crew that addresses you by name. From car door to wheels up in under fifteen minutes. This is what airports were supposed to be.
The best flight is the one where the only announcement is 'we are ready when you are.'
The Maldives lies between latitudes 1°S and 8°N and longitudes 72° and 74°E, spread as a double chain of 26 atolls composed of live coral reefs and sand bars atop a submarine ridge that rises abruptly from the floor of the Indian Ocean. Of its roughly 90,000 square kilometres, only about 298 square kilometres is dry land, one of the more dispersed geographies of any country.
Dubai is the most populous city in the United Arab Emirates and the capital of the Emirate of Dubai, sitting on a creek along the southeastern coast of the Persian Gulf. As of 2025 its population stood at roughly 4 million, of whom 92% are expatriates, while the wider Dubai–Sharjah–Ajman metropolitan area has a population of about 6 million.
Sri Lanka, officially the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka and formerly known as Ceylon, is an island country in the Indian Ocean southwest of the Bay of Bengal, separated from India by the Gulf of Mannar and the Palk Strait. Its executive and judicial capital and largest city is Colombo, while neighbouring Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte serves as the legislative capital, in a country of about 22 million people, roughly 74% of whom are Sinhalese.

What This Covers
Deliverables
What Private Jet Holidays actually plans and arranges.
Cabin Configured for You
Configure the cabin as a meeting room, a bedroom, a family dining room, or a nursery. Some ultra-long-range jets have showers, double beds, and dedicated office spaces. Your aircraft, your rules.
Your Menu at Altitude
Pre-order any cuisine from any restaurant or caterer. Jain, vegan, a specific chef's tasting menu, your grandmother's dal — dietary requirements met with total precision. Beverages of your choice at altitude.
Fly to 40,000+ Airports
Commercial aviation serves roughly 1,300 airports. Private aviation accesses over 40,000 — including remote strips unreachable by airline, the Maldives island with no commercial service, and private mountain airstrips in the Alps.
Perfect for Young Families
Small children travel infinitely better in a private cabin. No strangers to disturb or be disturbed by. The children's food, their schedule, their sleeping arrangements — all handled exactly as you specify.
Complete Privacy
No fellow passengers. No overheard conversations. No compromises on confidentiality. Medical privacy, business privacy, personal privacy — all guaranteed by the nature of the booking.
Pets in the Cabin
Your dog flies with you in the cabin, not in a cargo hold. Subject to destination country rules, we coordinate all veterinary paperwork, import permits, and cabin arrangements for pets.
Access Remote Destinations
Fly direct to Leh (Ladakh), Dibrugarh (for Assam tea gardens), Agatti Island (for Lakshadweep), or Coimbatore (for Nilgiris) — routes with thin commercial schedules, solved by private aviation.
Productive in the Air
Most private jets have in-flight Wi-Fi, power at every seat, and flat working surfaces. Board a city and land a completed proposal. The cabin is quiet and private — ideal for confidential discussions.
Night Flights Without the Ordeal
Overnight private charters arrive at dawn without the indignity of an airport overnight. Lie-flat beds on mid-size and large jets. Wake up at your destination, not at a connecting hub.
The Journey as the Celebration
Birthdays, anniversaries, honeymoons — we transform the flight itself into the first chapter. Champagne, cake, flowers, a personalised note from the captain. The celebration starts at the FBO door.
Empty Legs — Smart Savings
Aircraft repositioning flights (empty legs) are available at 40–60% discounts when routing aligns. We maintain an active empty leg list and alert subscribers. Ask us about current available routes.

Good To Know
Constraints & practical notes
Group Size = Cost Efficiency
At 6+ passengers, private jet cost per head often approaches or matches business class — with a dramatically superior experience. The per-person economics improve significantly with group size.
FBO Immigration Is Fast
International private flights use dedicated FBO terminals with fast-track immigration and customs at the destination. Total passport-to-exit time: under 10 minutes at most international FBOs.
Generous Baggage Flexibility
Private charters have generous baggage allowances — and no absurd per-piece fees. Golf clubs, extra suitcases, a stroller, a cello — we confirm the exact weight limits for your chosen aircraft.
Short-Notice Charters Available
Domestic Indian charters can be confirmed with as little as 4 hours notice. International routing needs 24–48 hours for flight permits (overflight clearances) across certain airspaces.
Ask About Empty Legs
Empty leg flights — aircraft repositioning between bookings — can reduce costs by 40–60% when routing aligns. Tell us your route and dates; we check the empty leg market before quoting full charter rates.
Cabin Noise Is Lower Than You Expect
Modern light and mid-size jets have significantly lower cabin noise than commercial aircraft. Conversation at normal volume, no need to raise your voice — and proper sleep without earplugs.
Wi-Fi on Most Aircraft
In-flight Wi-Fi is available on most mid-size and large jets. Connection quality varies by route and aircraft type — we confirm specifications at booking so there are no surprises for working passengers.
Round Trips Often Cheaper Than Expected
When the aircraft waits for you at the destination (known as 'wet hire with wait'), the positioning flight cost is shared across both legs — which can make round trips surprisingly cost-effective for short durations.
Questions
Frequently asked
Can I book a one-way charter?
Yes — one-way charters are common. The pricing reflects a 'ferry leg' cost (the aircraft returning empty to base after dropping you), which our team factors in. One-way charters are often more economical than you expect when the aircraft has a nearby routing.
What is an empty leg flight?
When an aircraft flies empty to reposition for another charter booking, we can offer that specific routing at a significant discount — sometimes 40–60% off full charter rates. Empty legs are time-specific and non-negotiable on timing, but ideal for travellers with flexibility. We maintain an active empty leg alert list.
Are pets allowed on private charters?
Yes — pets travel in the cabin on private charters (subject to the destination country's import regulations and veterinary documentation). We coordinate all pet health certificates, import permits, and cabin-specific arrangements for dogs, cats, and other companions.
How does the private terminal (FBO) experience work?
An FBO (Fixed Base Operator) is a private aviation terminal with no commercial airline traffic. You arrive, are met by the crew or a representative, complete minimal formalities in a dedicated lounge, and walk directly to your aircraft. Immigration on international flights occurs at a dedicated desk. Total time from car door to wheels up: 10–15 minutes.
Can I work or hold meetings onboard?
Yes — most private jets have Wi-Fi, power outlets at every seat, and flat surfaces suitable for working. The cabin is private, quiet, and secure — ideal for confidential business discussions. Some clients board a mid-size jet for a 3-hour domestic flight and arrive with a complete presentation.
How does catering work on a private charter?
You specify dietary requirements, preferred cuisine, preferred meal time, and any specific requests. A specialist aviation caterer prepares and cold-packs the food for the flight. On larger jets with galleys, the crew warms and serves meals in-flight. We coordinate the full brief — from dietary restrictions to whether you want flowers on the table.
How far in advance do I need to book?
Domestic Indian charters can be confirmed with 4–6 hours notice in many cases. International charters need 24–72 hours for flight permits, depending on routing and airspace. For high-demand dates (Christmas/New Year, major holidays), booking 2–4 weeks ahead is advisable. We occasionally have same-day availability.
What happens if there is a technical issue with the aircraft?
Charter operators carry backup aircraft for critical bookings — this is standard in the industry. We work with operators who have robust fleet depth and AOG (Aircraft on Ground) protocols. In the rare event of a technical issue, we activate the backup immediately and keep you updated.
Can private jets fly to small cities not on the commercial map?
Yes — this is one of the clearest advantages. Cities like Leh, Agatti (Lakshadweep), Dibrugarh, Kandla, Jamnagar, or Deoghar all have airports with limited or unreliable commercial service but accept private charter aircraft. We assess runway length and aircraft compatibility for every non-standard destination.
Is private jet travel safe?
Modern charter jets used by reputable operators meet or exceed commercial airline safety standards. We only work with DGCA-certified (India) or EASA/FAA-approved (international) operators with clean safety records and current maintenance certifications.
Can we have alcohol and our own beverages onboard?
Yes — you can specify any beverage preference, including your own wine selection or favourite spirits. We coordinate with the caterer. Some aircraft have fully stocked bars; others provision per your brief. Champagne on take-off is, of course, a matter of course.
