Anyone chartered a jet recently? Best providers?
Discussion
I'm going to be highly disappointed if no PH'er can help here... 
A friend is looking to charter a plane for a short flight from the South East up to Orkney in June. Have had a quick look on Privatefly.com and a Cessna Mustang shows at about £6,500 one way.
Just thought I'd ask the PH regulars, of whom I'm sure there will be a few jet users, what's the best way to do it?
If this doesn't come off then I think he wants to scratch the itch by just booking an empty leg journey to anywhere interesting, so the best place to source those would also be appreciated.

Thanks for the replies so far guys, I knew PH wouldn't let me down!
I was wrong in my OP, the price I mentioned was actually a return trip, however I think the trip to Orkney is off the cards now. Mate has decided he doesn't want to spend that much going to Orkney, when he can spend less, on a better jet (one with room for some drinks with any luck!) by just flying an empty leg to somewhere like Paris or Berlin.
Will give him a shout later and we'll do some digging!
