PRIVATE JET ACCESS PROGRAMME

Enjoy the Flexibility to Find Your Freedom

EXCEPTIONAL BENEFITS.

UNMATCHED ACCESS.

Whether travelling for business or pleasure, our innovative Access programme offers many of the same advantages of purchasing a jet share – but without the upfront costs and responsibility of asset ownership. However, much like shared ownership, at Flexjet you still enjoy much of the same experience; access to our entire closed fleet, ability to utilise our global interchange programme and even availability guarantees in peak travel windows.

Although it can go by a few other aliases in the industry – including leasing, private jet membership, private jet subscription – it all boils down to the same concept at Flexjet and remains a popular option for those who wish to avoid upfront capital expenditure in favour of monthly-style payments.

PROGRAMME SIZES

Access options can range from 1/16th (50 hours) to one half shares (400 hours) with each level allotting aircraft Owners a percentage of the 800 flight hours available per year on each aircraft.

Typical Utilisation

Our Access programme is ideal for individuals who plan on frequently utilising private flight for 50 or more hours per year.

While each provider is unique, an Access programme requires an initial capital outlay that falls between that associated with shared ownership and a jet card. Without having to take on the upfront costs of owning an asset, including depreciation risks, Access with Flexjet is a smart choice for those who desire the benefits of shared ownership but wish to avoid a large upfront investment.

Additionally, our Access programme can be an attractive option for corporate flight departments, as it is defined as a “travel expense” rather than an owned “asset”.

At their core, private charter programmes offer a “pay as you go” solution to private travel, but that “fly and forget” convenience comes with several compromises.

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.

Access, on the other hand, minimises your exposure to market demands and increases safety, reliability, and availability thresholds while offering a less capital-intensive solution to outright ownership. The Access programme with Flexjet provides you with guaranteed aircraft availability, highly experienced pilots, and predictable costs.

While there are some longer-term financial advantages to outright ownership for those who require significant amounts of flight time and last-minute itineraries, newer Access and shared ownership programmes begin to blur the lines that once separated them from ownership experiences.

With the Flexjet Access programme, you will avoid the substantial premium and capital risk associated with outright ownership while still enjoying flexibility in terms of aircraft access and flight availability during high-traffic portions of the calendar. Additionally, you will benefit from industry-leading inflight experiences, access to the latest fleet of aircraft, and a dedicated team of experts to assist you with all of your private aviation needs.
