Forbes Life Magazine suggests a private jet charter is a more affordable means of traveling to Taos than NetJets or Flight Options. It is also hugely quicker to use one of those options rather than commercial.
The estimated cost is only $2,709 for the charter compared to over $9,000 for the two services. You can bring 7 friends for the same cost. A charter also delivers you to Taos in about 1/3rd of the flight time. The article does say the cost estimate is for same day return so your ski trip will be short.
Just seemed like a fun thought. If you decide to visit Taos for Break, make Indian Hills Inn, Taos Plaza your headquarters. Prime location for the family or group that includes non skiers. We're located right in the heart of downtown.

Excellent idea, but there are far lower charter prices if you'll consider a propeller plane such as the Raytheon Beech King Air 200. A "jetprop" plane would take only about 30. min. more to reach Taos from major Texas cities than a jet, and cost as much as 1/2 the price.
ReplyDeleteTaos Aviation Services has rental cars available. They also have very competitive fuel prices for those who fly themselves.
