TERMS

MAXIMUM TERM:

60+ MONTHS

MINIMUM TERM:

30-MONTHS

ACQUISITION COST

When you decide to purchase an undivided interest in a specific Flexjet private aircraft for up to a 5-year term, there are some initial payments to cover. Our fractional jet ownership program requires an upfront cost of approx. 43% of your total yearly operational budget.

MONTHLY MANAGEMENT FEE

If you are looking for all the benefits of owning your own aircraft without the burdens of crewing and insurance, then fractional jet ownership is the program for you. When purchasing a share, you will pay a Monthly Management Fee, which covers items such as pilot provisions and training, insurance, hangaring and administrative costs.

OCCUPIED HOURLY RATE

Charged for each hour an aircraft is in-flight, plus 2/10 of an hour for taxi time. Your Occupied Hourly Rate covers the direct costs of operating your aircraft: maintenance, engine reserves, pilot fees, catering, etc. Enjoy low hourly rates for your entire term, with access to the Primary and Extended Service Areas without ferry fees. As a fractional jet owner, you can book your travel with a 10-hour response time.

Program Aircraft Guarantee

If you fly on a non-Flexjet aircraft for more than five percent of your utilized hours, those hours will be credited back to your annual allocated hours for the following year

Utilize Multiple Aircraft

Depending on your ownership level, you may use up to five aircraft in one day. Multiple-use benefits are based on the total number of share hours you own rather than share size within a single aircraft.

Gulfstream G650 Access Programs

As the exclusive fractional home of the Gulfstream G650, Flexjet presents you with a pair of unique ways to own this incredibly capable aircraft. Granting you the ability to “right-size” your jet to fit each trip, Unlimited Access offers leading fleet interchange incentives on any aircraft in our fleet.

Versatility Plus™

Versatility Plus™ is an innovative Flexjet-exclusive that allows you to customize your annual flight hours to align with the actual number of flight hours you require each year. This option can provide significant savings by making up to 25% of your hours available to other aircraft Owners within the Versatility Plus pool. If you’re flying less than expected, reduce your costs by selling hours to other Flexjet owners. If you’re flying more than you expected, you may also purchase hours from other Flexjet owners in the same or different cabin types.

Short-Leg Waivers

Typically, for any flights lasting under one hour, you will incur a standard minimum charge of one flight hour. With Flexjet, you receive two short-leg waivers annually for every 50-hour share you own. This means you can fly short routes (under one hour) and only be charged for the actual flight time involved with your trip.

Exclusive Red Label by Flexjet™ Experiences

The Flexjet fractional ownership program presents many extras, including Red Label by Flexjet. Red Label lets you enjoy the best of whole ownership for a fraction of the cost thanks to crews dedicated to your tail number, interior designs from our LXi Cabin Collection™, and much more.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Private jet fractional ownership grants guaranteed access to a private aircraft based upon the number of flight hours purchased. Share sizes range from 1/16th (50 hours) to 1/2 (400 hours), with no limit on the number of shares one may own. Each level of ownership entitles includes a percentage of the 800 flight hours available per year on each aircraft. For example, a 1/8th share entitles and aircraft Owner to 100 flight hours annually, which is approximately 50,000 miles.

With fractional, there are minimum and maximum contract periods. Most costs are fixed, and owners may use depreciation deductions applicable to a capital asset. A portion of a share purchase can be sold back to the provider at the end of the contract.

Much of the cost of fractional jet ownership can be broken down into four basic parts:

1. CAPITAL COST (OWNERSHIP)

An asset purchase that allows for a minimum of 50 flight hours per year priced at predictable rates over a specific term in the type of aircraft owned.

2. MONTHLY MANAGEMENT FEE

Covers the indirect expenses associated with operating your aircraft, including pilot training, insurance, cabin support, trip management, crew provisions and other administrative costs.

3. OCCUPIED HOURLY RATE

Charged for each hour an aircraft is in flight, plus 2/10 taxi time. This rate also includes direct expenses associated with maintenance, standard catering and engine operation.

4. FUEL COMPONENT ADJUSTMENT

Added to the base hourly rate to account for fluctuations in the cost of fuel, which varies monthly.

*Certain federal taxes may apply

Simply put, fractional jet ownership is the experience of whole aircraft ownership without the hassles of crewing, maintenance and unforeseen operational costs or downtime. It might be helpful to think of private jet fractional ownership as a timeshare or a recurring private jet membership.

In a charter environment, your travel needs are still subject to the supply and demand dynamics of an ever-changing market, which often includes your aircraft and crew. Additionally, it must be noted that due to high demand and limited fleet sizes, aspects such as safety, reliability and availability — to say nothing of flexibility — can become an issue with chartered flights.

Fractional private jet ownership can be appealing to frequent flyers who may have considered owning a whole aircraft but are looking for approachable and more predictable costs. Essentially, aircraft Owners secure the main benefits of whole aircraft ownership — consistency, guaranteed access, exceptional service, and personalization — for a fraction of the cost, and with none of the upkeep, maintenance, or crewing responsibilities.
