7 of the 18 companies we checked hold a CASA Air Operator's Certificate, and one more trades under business names held by CASA certificate holders. The rest are brokers, awaiting regulatory approval, or not matched to the register. How we check

How Australians fly private. Three trips, each with its own guide.

All guides
A family boarding a private jet by the airstairs

Business in a day

Sydney to Melbourne takes 70 to 75 minutes in a light jet, so a morning meeting and home for dinner is realistic.

Family and pets

Navair, Airly and Charter One say pets can fly in the cabin.
