PRODUCTS IN PRIVATE JET AVIATION

The main products to consider are:

Fractional Ownership
You buy a share of a plane, typically sold in 1/16 increments. This equates to 50 hours of flying per year. You choose the aircraft that best fits your travel needs. There is an initial purchase, plus monthly management fees and then fees for each hour flown.

Fractional Cards
These are offered by operators that run their own fractional fleets. So there is a very consistent level of service and aircraft.

Charter Cards
May be offered by both charter brokers and charter operators. The aircraft may be a little more variable, although many companies have very exacting standards. Prices tend to be lower than for Fractional Cards.

On Demand Charter
You book an individual aircraft as you need it. So there’s a lot of flexibility and potentially a lot of variability. Rates start at about $3,000 per hour for a light jet.
