A SMARTER ALTERNATIVE
TO AIRCRAFT OWNERSHIP

Discover how Jettly programs provide the advantages of private aviation without the financial burden and operational complexity of owning a private jet.

THE REALITY OF AIRCRAFT OWNERSHIP

Owning a private jet can offer flexibility and convenience, but it also introduces significant financial and operational responsibilities.

Aircraft owners must manage:
CREW SALARIES AND TRAINING
AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTIONS
HANGAR AND INSURANCE COSTS
REGULATORY COMPLIANCE
ASSET DEPRECIATION
AIRCRAFT RESALE AND LIQUIDITY RISK
For many travelers, these responsibilities eventually outweigh the benefits of ownership.

TRUE COST OF OWNING A PRIVATE JET

Typical costs associated with owning a midsize or large business jet include:

EXPENSE CATEGORY
TYPICAL COST
AIRCRAFT PURCHASE
$8M - $40M
ANNUAL OPERATING COSTS
$IM - $4M
CREW SALARIES
$300K $800K
MAINTENANCE & INSPECTIONS
$500K+
HANGAR & INSURANCE
$150K - $500K
DEPRECIATION
Millions over ownership lifecycle

WHY OWNERS ARE TRANSITIONING AWAY FROM OWNERSHIP

Many aircraft owners eventually seek alternatives because of:

UNDERUTILIZATION
Most private jets fly fewer than 300 hours per year.
HIGH FIXED COSTS
Ownership costs continue even when the aircraft is not flying.
OPERATIONAL COMPLEXITY
Managing pilots, maintenance schedules, and regulatory requirements can become burdensome.
LIQUIDITY CONSTRAINTS
 Aircraft ownership ties up significant capital that could otherwise be invested elsewhere.

CASE EXAMPLE
(OWNERSHIP REPLACEMENT)

Example scenario:

An aircraft owner flying 150 hours per year on a midsize jet may incur $2M+ annually in ownership costs.

By transitioning to a structured jet card program, the traveler maintains private aviation access while significantly reducing capital exposure and operational overhead.
