Prop planes, including turboprop and piston aircraft, play a significant role in private aviation, particularly for regional routes under 1,500 kilometers where jets are less economical. They offer advantages such as lower operating costs, access to smaller and unpaved airports, and the ability to connect remote communities. Turboprops, like the Beechcraft King Air and Pilatus PC-12, provide jet-like cabins and performance for short-haul flights, making them ideal for business travel. Jettly's platform facilitates real-time comparisons of turboprops and jets, ensuring travelers can choose the most suitable aircraft for their needs with transparent pricing.

Aviation Fuel: From Conventional Jet Fuel to Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF)
Aviation fuel, primarily consisting of conventional jet fuel and aviation gasoline (avgas), is essential for powering aircraft engines, with sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) emerging as a low-carbon alternative that can reduce lifecycle emissions by up to 80%.
