Corporate Responsibility
Flexjet's* commitment to corporate responsibility begins with an operational approach. This allows us to maximize our efficiencies and reduce the environmental impact of our business. Our responsibility extends to our employees, who have dedicated days of hard labor toward building homes for Habitat for Humanity, and to our customers, who have donated their time and flight hours for lifesaving missions.

Committed to the Environment
Flexjet* – in partnership with ClimateCare, a world-leading carbon offset provider – offers its fractional customers the option to offset their jet's CO2 emissions each time they fly.
ClimateCare offers the highest standards for choosing, measuring and reporting on its programs that help balance carbon emissions. Every project is closely monitored and independently verified under leading international standards to ensure that targets are achieved.
Carbon offset programs balance carbon emissions by investing in projects that avoid or reduce CO2 emissions, ensuring that the amount saved balances the emissions being offset. Flexjet has calculated the average CO2 emissions for each of our aircraft and assigned per-hour charges sufficient to balance those emissions with a ClimateCare offset project. The carbon-offset fee – a small percentage of the hourly rate – will simply be added to the monthly bill.
Flexjet's Carbon Offset program is completely voluntary, and customers will fly secure in the knowledge that their flights will add up to zero carbon emissions. For more information on the Flexjet Carbon Offset program, download the PDF below.

Flexjet Employees Build Homes with Habitat for Humanity
Inspired by our fractional owners’ immense and ongoing philanthropic generosity, Flexjet decided in 2008 that, in lieu of traditional holiday gift-giving, we would make a charitable contribution on their behalf. As a result, Flexjet works with Habitat for Humanity to build homes for Dallas-area families, thanks to the generous spirit of our customers and the hard work of Flexjet employees.
Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit organization that builds affordable homes in cooperation with families, regardless of religion, race, creed, color, gender or familial status. Families who become Habitat homeowners must qualify for a Habitat interest-free mortgage. Prior to taking possession of their new home, they will have completed at least 400 hours of work on Habitat projects, including their own home.

Flexjet Assists with Haiti Relief
Amid one of the world's worst natural disasters, the situation for our neighbors in Haiti was perilous. With immediate aid needed, the business aviation community was in a unique position to make a meaningful impact and deliver much-needed medical personnel and basic necessities.
Flexjet* was able to coordinate with CARE – Corporate Aircraft Response in Emergencies – to transport an Omaha-based trauma team of nine to the region. Along with several customers, Flexjet also donated a flight to Doc to Dock – a nonprofit organization that collects medical supplies from U.S. hospitals. The Challenger 300* delivered supplies and resources to the citizens of Haiti for additional relief.
Flexjet was honored and humbled to be a small part of the larger U.S. effort.
