A leased private jet on the runway

Buy time across a fleet

Buy time across an agreed fleet of private jets

Enjoy the opulence of flying in a private jet without bearing the exorbitant costs of owning one outright. Buy the private jet hours that you require. Private jet leases are only available in increments of 50 hours and increase in 20-hour intervals, and you must purchase the exact number of flight hours required.

If you want flexibility, convenience and cost-effective rates, a private jet lease is the way for frequent flyers. Ad-hoc chartering can be more cost-efficient for occasional flights, but it does not offer the same benefits and security as a lease. Choose wisely for your travel needs.
