When Private Aviation Makes Sense

Understanding jet card fleet availability is crucial for private aviation customers, as it impacts access to aircraft, service areas, and booking conditions. Jet card programs typically require 24–72 hours' notice for domestic bookings and may have restrictions during peak days or holidays. Jettly offers a flexible model with access to over 20,000 aircraft globally, emphasizing transparency in pricing and availability while accommodating pet travel. When selecting a jet card, it's important to consider factors such as guaranteed availability, aircraft categories, and any additional fees to ensure the program aligns with your travel needs.

Jet card programs typically allow flights during peak travel periods like holidays, but they impose stricter rules regarding availability, cancellation policies, and surcharges. Peak days often require longer booking lead times (5-10 days) and may incur surcharges of 10-40%, while cancellation policies can result in significant penalties for late cancellations. Many jet card hours expire within 12-36 months, and refundability is rare unless specified in the contract. Jettly offers a trip-based model that avoids hour expiry, providing flexibility and transparency in pricing without the constraints of traditional jet card memberships.
