Joining the Jet Set | Journeys Magazine by Minor Hotels

To get runway ready is no small thing… this is when you call MJets

Owning your own private jet is not a small thing. It takes you beyond the everyday and separates you from the ordinary. It removes all the humdrum troubles and inconveniences associated with commercial airline travel or even fractional ownership. At a stroke, you can choose where, when and with whom you travel. But at the same time, it gives you much, much more. It’s an emotional investment that will ripple through every aspect of your life because it announces where you are and where you’re going. It literally expands your horizons.

To get runway ready is also no small thing. Unless you have unlimited free time and are an expert in aviation, law, engineering and finance, you are likely to need professional help. This is when you call MJets, the premier luxury private aviation company in Southeast Asia. Its experience and expertise across all these areas will make all the difference.

But before you start your journey, you should ask yourself one simple question. Does it make sense? The answer to this will be different for everyone, but it begins with a few simple metrics.

How many hours do you travel in an average year? If it’s over 250, then you are in the right territory to consider private ownership. Why? Because that’s the tipping point beyond which the advantages start to outweigh the costs. Also, think about the places you need to visit most often. The more time-consuming and difficult they are to access, the more immediate the benefits of the private jet. But even if you’re not heading to the other side of the world, think of the boost to your business of being able to sign off a deal in person and still be home, rested and refreshed, in time to watch the big game. Think how nimble and responsive your business could be with access to a private jet.

MJets, founded in Thailand in 2000 and now with an international presence, specialises in a full range of private jet services, from bespoke charters and aircraft management to flight planning and ground handling. More than just a bespoke travel operator, they offer a personalised luxury lifestyle experience designed with the most discerning individuals in mind.

Over the past two decades, the private aviation market has expanded rapidly, driven by ultra-high-net-worth individuals, family offices and corporate leaders seeking freedom, efficiency and privacy. At the same time, regulations and cross-border operations have become more complex – making professional management essential. This is where MJets comes in.

By offering world-class support to aircraft owners, MJets provides an aeronautical ecosystem that removes all the unseen stresses of private jet travel, protecting their clients’ investment, reducing downtime and delivering a worry-free ownership experience. That’s why MJets describes the service they offer as a partnership.

You select the destination, MJets plans the flight, schedules the journey, books hangar space and arranges the permits. You decide when to fly, MJets handles the groundwork, fuels the jet, recruits the pilots and the crew, and even arranges catering. You choose who to fly with (family, friends, pets), MJets ensures your jet is serviced, well maintained and guides you through the complex due diligence process surrounding safety and compliance.

"MJets’ policy is to look after your private aircraft as if it were their own."

In other words, MJets handles every detail to give you peace of mind. Their policy is to look after your aircraft as if it were their own.

Of course, where you fly from is pretty important, too. That’s why MJets established the first and only FBO (Fixed Base Operation) in Thailand in 2010 for their luxury fleet. This award-winning private jet terminal at Bangkok’s Don Mueang International Airport offers a VIP service of the highest quality and has been named the best in Asia for the past decade by Aviation International News.

And should the need arise, MJets has its own world-class Aircraft Maintenance and Repair Organisation (MRO). Their ability to keep an aircraft airworthy has earned MJets certification by the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as well as the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) of the Cayman Islands. They are also a Gulfstream Authorised Warranty Facility, so new Gulfstream aircraft owners across Asia can have peace of mind that MJets can support them locally.

MJets can also assist you with upgrading your jet to a newer aircraft. From model selection to calculating the cost of ownership and preserving value, they have the expertise you need. And once you have chosen your model, they can even facilitate any bespoke modifications. The customisation programme involves every aspect of the cabin management system, from integrated lighting and environmental controls to internet connectivity and entertainment systems.

However, regardless of whether you are a private jet owner or if you prefer to arrange a personal luxury charter, it’s good to know that MJets will be with you on every journey. To put it in the most simple terms, you can truly travel more and worry less.

This is no small thing.
