What the price leaves out
Things that aren't always in the first number you see:
- Airport and private terminal charges at both ends (TEB and FXE).
- De-icing in winter at Teterboro. Worth asking about if you fly between December and March.
- Crew hotel and per diem if the aircraft waits for you in Fort Lauderdale.
When two quotes differ a lot, the gap is often in these lines. Every fee is explained in our guide to charter fees.
