Hiring planes for longer
Hello,
Glad to be on this forum!
I've recently started by PPL journey with the dream of flying my wife and my dog on holidays to Portugal, France, Italy, etc... I'd love to understand how it works to hire aircraft for say a week or two? All I see on club websites are quotes by the hour (does that include fuel?). So if I go for say 2 weeks, would I pay just for my flying time to the destination (and a bit of flying while there) and then get to keep the aircraft the rest of the time? Or would it be per hour the aircraft is away from its usual home (i.e. 7 days x 24 hours x £150/hr = £25,200)? The latter does seem excessive.
Thanks all and excited to be on this journey.
