When it comes to the question of corporate jets, everybody thinks of high-class-luxury aviation; and why not? The cost of corporate jets is too much to expect anything less! Right from the pilot crew to the catering facilities, corporate jets offer the best services to make your journey a pleasure. Though, you will be at ease about these matters only when you are opting for corporate jet rentals and just hiring the jets. Owning corporate jets add some responsibilities and works that organizations and companies need to sort out.

Catering facility is one of the major problems, as the food quality can't be spared in any case. Fortunately, the National Business Aviation Association has many sub-committees in place that handle different aspects of corporate aviation, and catering is one of them. The companies can benefit from this sub-committee a lot, as the committee provides a comprehensive program to check-out the services provided by the flight attendant companies. If you want to find out what the companies are providing, the sub-committee can provide you with mentoring programs for menu planning, plate presentation and garnishing, ordering, packaging, and similar tasks. This helps in eliminating the need of trying-out various caterers and then deciding which one you would like to have for your corporate jets. You can easily visit the catering companies, check their provisions, and can match with your expectations that the sub-committee has helped you to develop.

However, if you are thinking of options outside the schemes of rentals or owning, there are still more options. Some companies offer fractional ownership for corporate jets, and you can avail this facility. You can check the details of this partnership from the companies' website or their physical office; however, the fundamental thing about it is that you co-own the corporate jet and can use it, but you do not have any need to think about it maintenance and other duties The company providing fractional ownership will cater to these things. Though, financial matters should be clearly discussed with the companies providing this type of option.

More often than not, companies prefer to choose the rental option for corporate jets, as it does not pounce them with heavy cost and do solve the issue of private aviation. Nonetheless, it has been observed that in the last 4-5 years, the demand of corporate jets have increased due to traffic at major airports of the whole world; due to increased security threats around the globe; due to shortage of time and global demand in business; and of course due to improved economy. All these factors have contributed a lot to make bigger companies think about owning a corporate jet, and somehow, they are going for it! Experts can easily predict, and they do, that the demand for corporate jets is going to increase in the coming time.

The answer is not as straightforward as “Yes!” or “No!” – it “Depends!”

Both forms of using a display have their advantages and drawbacks and which is the better method for you to use is determined by the situation you are in, personal preference and how you operate.

Pro's of Buying

• Customization – you are able to design and acquire a display which is tailored to your own specifications and is best equipped to suit your needs;

• Consistency – as you move from show to show you will be able to present a uniform image which is consistent – do not underestimate this nor the fact that it will not go unnoticed;

• Availability – you own the kit and therefore it is available whenever you want it to be;

• Brand Image – with your own display you can integrate your brand identity into the display and banners and signs can be used repeatedly; and

• Depreciation – you can depreciate the display as an asset and take a charge to your profit and loss account saving you money on your tax bill.

Con's of Buying

• High Initial Cost – the initial investment can be substantial and depending on how you depreciate the asset will have a direct impact on your ROI over time; and

• Storage and Maintenance Costs – as your property, you will be responsible for storing the equipment and also for maintaining and repairing it, all adding to the cost of ownership.

Pro's of Renting or Leasing

• Low Initial Cost – the cost barrier to entry is dramatically lowered if you rent your display equipment which will dramatically improve your ROI initially;

• Low Risk for Testing – if you are new to trade shows or are looking to try out different techniques or concepts then leasing the equipment makes more sense than heavy investment which may not be used in the longer-term;

• No Maintenance or Storage – you are free of the costs associated with owning the equipment – you have no
responsibility for repairing or storing the display and simply need it at the event location at the right date and time;

• Ancillary Cost Savings – by renting a display locally you can save on the costs of shipping the display to the events you are exhibiting at – this is especially advantageous if you are attending international shows; and

• Customization Options – though you are renting the display, many leased displays do provide for customization.

Con's of Renting and Leasing

• Lack of Availability – you are treated on a “first-come, first-served” basis unless you book well in advance; lack of availability can be a real issue if demand is high – expect this to start becoming the case as we move out of recession into recovery;

• One- Time Use Graphics – unless you have committed to a schedule with the rental you are creating a one-time use of your banners and marketing images which is not financially effective; and

• Lack of Consistency – it will be very difficult to maintain a uniform image as you move from display to display at various events.
