Nashville flights became a whole lot easier thanks to Nashville-based technology company Airvel. Now you can fly local, fly faster, and fly private for less.

Nashville Flights

Nashville has always been on the halfway line when it comes to flights. It had an American Airlines hub, but that closed. There are direct commercial flights to over 70 destinations in North America and Europe, but that’s not very many considering the US alone has more than 2500 airports.

You can fly to another major US city on Southwest or another airline, but the choice is slim and there is no flexibility over when you fly. Most passengers are flying to Nashville via somewhere else. And who wants to get stuck in Dulles or O’Hara International after a missed connection?

Nashville International Airport can’t rival the flight choice of JFK for example, but at least you don’t need to spend three hours queuing and plodding through security. It’s halfway – convenient for some, some of the time. And what other choice is available? A five-hour drive to Hartsfield-Jackson?

How to do Nashville Flights Differently

Commercial airlines operate on a hub and spoke model. You fly to a hub and then fly out of that hub to your final destination. Private air charters are completely flexible. You can fly anywhere at anytime. It’s your charter and it’s always direct. But wait! Private jets? Surely they are incredibly expensive, reserved for the rich and famous?

Not really. Private jets are comfortable. The luxury of private jets is always the time that you save. Fill all the seats in a charter aircraft and the price isn’t much different to flying business class on a commercial airline. The time benefits of flying direct are complemented by all the expedited procedures you can enjoy.

• Turn up only 10 – 15 minutes before a flight
• Use a private terminal (airport FBO) with no queue for security
• Touch down at the closest airport to your final destination, not only a city’s international airport

Charter flights also offer incredible flexibility. If you are late the plane will wait. Miss a commercial flight and you will need to wait, probably overnight. And you'll probably have to pay. But if you need to rearrange then an air charter can be adjusted, including just a few minutes before the scheduled departure.

Most importantly, with a private air charter you can fly anytime. You do not fly on an airline’s schedule – every flight works around your schedule. Just imagine how much more time you can enjoy when a flight is so flexible. But how do you find and book an air charter? And is it actually affordable?

Nashville Flights Compared – Commercial vs Air Charters

Flights from SFO to Nashville

SFO is statistically the worst airport in the United States for flight delays. It’s a busy, overcrowded airport that frustrates almost everyone who uses it. Oakland is much faster, even for the San Francisco Bay area, but there aren’t any direct commercial flights between Nashville and Oakland.

Private jet charters from San Francisco to Nashville are surprisingly affordable. And they are excellent value if you consider the value of all the time that can be saved. From Nashville you can fly direct to airports in Santa Rosa and San Joaquin County. Other San Francisco airports will also be convenient for shorter flights on turboprops and light jets.

Flights to Nashville from NYC

Flights to and from NYC are made so much faster using Teterboro, North America’s most popular private jet airport. Teterboro is the closest airport to Manhattan and reduces transfer and waiting time by hours.

Teterboro’s popularity is increased by the number of excellent airport FBOs. On a private air charter you do not need to use busy commercial terminals. Whether a small or large airport, you can use a private terminal that removes all waiting time. There’s usually a private lounge where you can get work done, but most passengers walk straight through onto the runway and the waiting plane.

BNA to Las Vegas

Southwest now has three to four direct commercial flights a day to Las Vegas. Which is pretty convenient, considering Frontier and Spirit also operate to Las Vegas but don’t touch down until after 11pm (when they are on time). Southwest’s flights are more convenient, but they can’t match the flexibility of flying on a private air charter.

Okay, it may seem an elaborate expense. But this is Southwest Airlines vs a private jet, so you cannot really put the experience in the same box. Air charters are very affordable when you fill the aircraft. Instead of buying a seat (as with a commercial flight) you charter the entire plane. So the total price for one passenger is the same as for five or nine passengers.

So get a group of friends together and you can fly at business class prices, on a return schedule that works around you. And it’s a Vegas trip, so do you really want to be flying back on Southwest after an indulgent weekend?

Flights from Nashville to Anywhere

The beauty and luxury of a private jet charter is the opportunity to fly anywhere. While commercial airlines have routes from Nashville to major US cities, an air charter can take you to more than 2500 destinations in the US.

It really is more affordable than most people think. And you don’t need a jet card or membership to fly private. Just search for air charters as you would search for any other flight. Compare the prices and only pay for the flights you want, not for silly extras or long-term membership.

Or ask an Airvel concierge to search flights instead. Airvel offers a concierge service as standard to everyone. So you can fly anywhere, anytime.
