When a client requests a private charter from Antananarivo, Madagascar to New York, the Amalfi Jets team evaluates the logistical requirements of such a long-range mission. This journey requires an aircraft capable of completing a non-stop or near-range flight path. The team determines that suitable options include the Gulfstream G650 or the Bombardier Global 6000, noting an estimated charter cost of $185,000 to $200,000.
Operational Considerations
The team conducts a feasibility review, identifying that international flights originating in Madagascar and arriving in the United States require specialized customs coordination. Due to the distance, estimated at 7,600 nautical miles, a technical stop in London is deemed necessary. This stop requires two separate flight crews to maintain duty time requirements. Finally, the team monitors the fleet positioning of available aircraft, locating Global 6000 options currently stationed in the Middle East to assess their ability to support the itinerary.
