Jet cards provide private jet access without aircraft ownership. Unlike full ownership, where you purchase and manage an aircraft, or fractional ownership, where you own a share, a jet card is a service that provides access to private aircraft—often with fixed hourly rates, guaranteed availability, and other benefits.
