No surprise here. Traveling with major commercial airlines is a huge ordeal for most people.

The American Customer Satisfaction Index, an independent agency that conducts polls of consumers for various industries, reports that commercial airlines score a 69 on a scale of 100 in terms of customer satisfaction. By comparison, subscription television services and the IRS are among the few categories that scored lower.

That commercial airlines barely beat out the tax guys should surprise no one who has put up with being nickel-and-dimed for extra luggage, incredibly cramped seating, bad food (or no food at all), flight delays and indifferent service.

That’s why charter flights are the answer to the commercial airline blues.

Imagine a flight in which you can enjoy plush seating with plenty of room to stretch out and have your favorite food catered while knowing the plane is ready, on time and won’t take off without you.

A trip should follow your schedule and be free of long security or check-in lines, crowded terminals and exhaustive layovers.

Flying doesn’t have to be an agonizing chore. Arriving at a destination refreshed and with a positive outlook after traveling aboard a modern charter jet will make it clear: life is too short to deal with deteriorating commercial airline accommodations and service.

Looking at the ACSI numbers, we suspect many travelers agree.
