IAS Premium Charters develops green alternative for private jets

IAS Premium Charters, a private jet company based in Southern California, has recently developed a technology that will keep the skies cleaner, while continuing to deliver the luxuries and amenities that come with all private jets.

“Private aviation doesn’t have the best reputation with environmentalists, but we hope to change that perception,” commented Arnold Leto—founder and CEO of IAS Premium Charters. “Many of our clients are concerned about the environment, and our goal is to provide them with ‘guilt-free’ charter service that offers the standard of comfort and convenience that they desire.”

The company’s Pilatus PC-12 is a turbo-prop aircraft that burns 40% less fuel per hour than other private aircrafts without sacrificing size, luxury, and flight time. The Pilatus burns 60 gallons/hour where other planes consume up to 100-600 gallons/hour. 

“There’s no reason to trade luxury or safety for environmental responsibility,” mentioned Leto. “The PC-12 would be a first-class aircraft even without its fuel efficiency. The plane is actually bigger than a King Air B200 and nearly twice as large as a Citation Jet. And the reliability of the Pilatus is one reason why IAS has a perfect safety record.”
