When you book a private jet charter with Jet Members, you’re choosing more than just privacy, flexibility, and luxury service. You’re choosing an elevated travel experience designed to help you arrive at your destination feeling truly refreshed, and one of the key reasons is something you might not immediately notice: lower cabin pressure.
What is Cabin Pressure Altitude, and why does it matter?
As your aircraft climbs to cruising altitudes of 40,000 feet or higher, the air outside becomes thin and cold. To keep everyone comfortable and safe, the cabin is pressurised to simulate a lower altitude.
This internal pressure is called cabin pressure altitude, and it’s measured in feet - the equivalent altitude the cabin air mimics compared to sea level. Most commercial airliners maintain a cabin altitude of around 6,000 to 8,000 feet.
However, many modern private jets, including those available through Jet Members, maintain a significantly lower cabin altitude, often between 4,000 and 6,000 feet. This difference may seem small, but it has a big impact on your comfort.
3 Ways Lower Cabin Pressure makes your Flight more Comfortable
1. More Oxygen, More Energy
At lower cabin altitudes, the air contains more oxygen. This means your body doesn’t need to work as hard to get the oxygen it needs. The result? You feel less fatigued, clearer-headed, and more alert, even after long flights.
2. Reduced Jet Lag and Fatigue
Flying at a higher cabin altitude can cause mild oxygen deprivation, leading to headaches, dizziness, and tiredness. Lower cabin pressure on private jets helps minimise these effects, letting you land feeling more refreshed and ready to go.
3. Better Hydration and Overall Comfort
Dry cabin air can cause dehydration and discomfort. Because private jets maintain a lower cabin altitude and often better humidity control, you’re less likely to experience dry skin, sore throats, or dehydration during your flight.

Arrive Refreshed, Ready to Perform
Whether you’re jetting off for business meetings, family holidays, or special events, lower cabin pressure means you avoid the usual travel fatigue and jet lag associated with commercial flights. For executives, celebrities, athletes, and discerning travellers alike, this means you can hit the ground running - focused, energised, and ready to make the most of your time.
