Transition guide

Private households & villas → Private Aviation.

You already run an entire private operation for one principal, alone. The aircraft is the smallest change in this transition.

What you already bring

Recognised by operators from day one.

  • End-to-end household ownership

    You already own everything from procurement to cellar to staff scheduling, without a manager to escalate to.

  • Confidentiality inside personal space

    You have already been present for years without ever being remembered as present. Operators call this "invisibility" and pay for it.

  • Sourcing on demand, anywhere

    You have built supplier networks for a principal who does not accept "not available".

  • Standards enforcement without a manual

    You already hold the line without a written playbook. That is exactly the private-cabin condition.

What's genuinely missing

Named honestly, so you know what to close.

  • Aircraft galley constraints — the pantry is roughly the size of a wardrobe.
  • Catering under real operator budgets and 48h ordering windows.
  • Cabin safety and the flight-deck relationship.
  • Sequence design on very short legs.
  • CV translation from household language into operator language.
The 20/80 line

“In a private household you own perhaps 30% service and 70% household operations. In private aviation you own 20% service and 80% aircraft operations. The ratio is almost identical — the object of the operations changes.”

How Gate 33 closes the gap

3 live online days. Delivered by a working corporate flight attendant.

Every module is live with Nicolas — no recordings, no self-paced content. The training rebuilds the operational 80% first, then re-frames your background in the language operators are actually screening for.
