About Private Jet Cards
As a private travel company, Flexjet offers a wide range of private aircraft services including jet card programs. But is a jet card right for you? Here are some things to know about jet cards.
A jet card is suited for those who plan to travel 25 hours or less annually. For those who require greater flexibility and a better in-flight experience than what charter has to offer, a Flexjet 25™ jet card allows you to enjoy reliable access to a world-class fleet of aircraft. What's more, your Flexjet 25™ jet card includes aircraft operated by highly trained and experienced Flexjet pilots and cabin crews.
A jet card at Flexjet allows you to access a variety of aircraft types without any of the capital outlays associated with outright ownership, fractional ownership, or leasing. Available as a one-time-only purchase, jet cards can also be gifted to anyone you choose. Purchased jet cards can only be renewed with hours in a limited capacity once per year, however you may continue your Flexjet experience via one of our flexible lease or fractional ownership offerings. Overall, this solution presents an extremely approachable model because of its debit-style format.
Your Flexjet 25™ jet card requires a deposit of 25 flight hours associated with a primary aircraft, plus a Federal Excise Tax of 7.5%. A monthly Fuel Component Adjustment is added to your base hourly rate to account for fluctuations in fuel cost. Purchased jet cards can only be renewed with hours in a limited capacity once per year, however you may continue your Flexjet experience via one of our flexible lease or fractional ownership offerings.
Fractional ownership offers the highest level of control and flexibility. With that comes additional capital considerations from both sides of the balance sheet.
A jet card entitles you to a minimum of 25 hours of flight usage within a 12-month time span, at a higher premium on the hourly rate within our fractional offering, because of the added flexibility. This access level is subject to scheduling restrictions but remains a trial-level alternative to more long-term agreements. Flexjet 25™ jet cardholders do not own any part of their primary aircraft and are therefore free of the usual capital risks associated with asset ownership and maintenance.
Similar to fractional ownership, private aviation leasing affords a greater amount of control over what aircraft you have access to, how quickly you can book an itinerary, as well as capital and liability considerations. Leasing dramatically reduces your exposure to market demands and oftentimes increases safety, reliability, and availability thresholds while offering a less capital-intensive solution to outright ownership. However, owning or leasing part of an asset requires additional costs such as lease payments and monthly management fees.
As a Flexjet 25™ jet cardholder, you do not own any part of your primary aircraft.
