The island of Nantucket is accessible only by boat or plane. Because of the proximity of the event to all local attractions, cars are not necessary. Transportation to the Island is available through ferry and airport service.
We are
proud to partner with Sentient Jet as the
exclusive private jet service for the
Nantucket Conference. Founded in
1999, Sentient Jet is one the leading
private aviation companies in the country.
Sentient's Jet Card and 25-Hour Jet Card
offer industry-leading value for private
jet travel and protection from the risk of
depreciating assets associated with
fractional jet ownership. Sentient
has established a strong reputation for
outstanding service and a commitment to
leading safety programs, guided by the
industry's first and only Independent
Safety Advisory Board. Sentient's
extensive network of certified operators
ensures that clients will always have
access to executive aircraft that meet
Sentient's rigorous standards for safety
and quality. For on-demand, individual
itineraries, the company also offers the
Sentient Jet Charter program as well as the
online private jet charter marketplace, www.privatejets.com.
