The Private Jet Fleet

You have access to 138 aircraft types across 20 manufacturers, from single-engine turboprops such as the Pilatus PC-12 to VIP airliners like the Boeing BBJ and Airbus ACJ, drawn from a network of more than 450 vetted operators worldwide. Because we are a broker rather than a single fleet owner, we source the exact aircraft your trip needs rather than fitting your trip to the jets we happen to hold.

Private aircraft fall into seven broad classes: turboprops, light and very light jets, midsize jets, super-midsize jets, heavy or large-cabin jets, ultra-long-range jets, and VIP airliners. They differ in cabin size, range, speed and the airports they can use. As a rule, larger classes fly farther and carry more, while smaller classes reach more airfields and cost less per flight hour. The right class is the smallest one that comfortably covers your route and party.

Charter starts from around EUR 3,000 to 6,000 for a short European hop on a light jet, rises to EUR 12,000 to 25,000 for a midsize or super-midsize sector, and reaches EUR 80,000 or more for a transatlantic flight on an ultra-long-range jet. Price is driven by the aircraft class, distance, aircraft positioning and season. Empty-leg and off-peak bookings can be a fraction of that. Tell us your route and we return a firm, all-in price within 30 minutes.

A light jet seats four to eight, flies roughly two to three hours and slips into small runways, ideal for short regional trips. A midsize jet adds a stand-up cabin, an enclosed lavatory and transcontinental range. A heavy or large-cabin jet offers distinct living zones, a full galley and intercontinental range for larger parties. Cabin height is the tell on board: light jets have a low ceiling, midsize jets let most people stand, and heavy jets feel like a room.

The ultra-long-range class leads: the Bombardier Global 7500 flies about 7,700 nautical miles nonstop, and the Gulfstream G650ER and G700 are close behind at roughly 7,500. These jets connect New York with Tokyo or London with Singapore without a fuel stop, holding a low cabin altitude so you land rested. VIP airliners such as the ACJ330 stretch even farther on long-range fuel tanks.

Among production business jets the Gulfstream G650 and G700 cruise at up to Mach 0.925, and the Cessna Citation X held the crown for years at Mach 0.935. Most jets cruise between Mach 0.80 and 0.85. Speed compounds over distance, so on a transatlantic leg the fastest jets routinely save an hour or more. In the turboprop world the Piaggio Avanti is the quickest in production at about 402 knots.

Across the 138-aircraft fleet, capacity ranges from four in a very light jet to fifty in a VIP airliner. Light jets carry four to eight, midsize and super-midsize seven to ten, heavy jets ten to sixteen, and airliner-based aircraft the largest groups. For longer flights we usually suggest booking a seat or two below the maximum so guests can spread out, work and sleep.

Turboprops such as the Pilatus PC-12 and Beechcraft King Air, and light jets such as the Embraer Phenom 300 and Cessna Citation CJ series, are built for short and even unpaved runways. The Pilatus PC-24 is a true jet certified for gravel strips. This lets you land far closer to your destination than a large airline hub, turning a long road transfer into a short one, one of the real advantages of flying privately.

Crossing an ocean calls for a heavy or ultra-long-range jet. The Gulfstream G550, G650 and Bombardier Global 6000 and 7500 fly London to New York or beyond nonstop in genuine comfort, with beds, a galley and low cabin noise. For very large groups a VIP airliner carries the range and the space. We match the exact aircraft to your city pair, headwinds and payload so the crossing is nonstop and rested.

Four questions decide it: how far you are flying, how many are travelling, how much luggage you carry, and which airports you want to use. A two hour hop for four suits a light jet; a family crossing the Atlantic wants a heavy or ultra-long-range jet; skis or golf clubs may call for a jet with a larger hold or a turboprop with a cargo door. Our advisors weigh all four with you and match the aircraft to the journey, honestly and without upselling.

Chartering means you pay only for the flights you take, with no purchase price, crew salaries, hangar or maintenance costs, and you pick the ideal aircraft for each trip. Ownership and fractional programmes suit those flying several hundred hours a year but carry heavy fixed costs. For most travellers, on-demand charter delivers the same privacy and comfort at a fraction of the commitment.

Yes. Every flight is placed with fully vetted operators holding a valid Air Operator Certificate, flown by professional, type-rated crews under strict maintenance regimes. Many hold additional third-party safety ratings such as ARGUS, Wyvern or IS-BAO. Safety is the one area we never trade on, whatever the aircraft or the price.

Yes. Pets travel in the cabin beside you, never in a hold, on every class of aircraft in the fleet. We handle the microchip, vaccination and paperwork for your route so boarding is effortless. Pet-friendly travel is one of our specialities, and it is one of the main reasons families choose private aviation in the first place.

An empty leg is a repositioning flight, when an aircraft would otherwise fly empty to collect its next client or return to base. Because the operator wants to offset the cost, these one-way legs can be booked at a fraction of the standard charter rate. If your dates and route are flexible, an empty leg is the smartest way to fly a larger jet for less. We track live availability and flag genuine matches the moment they appear.

In as little as 55 minutes from a confirmed booking, 24 hours a day, across 180 countries. With more than 450 operators in the network, we can respond to last-minute requests with speed and reliability, and you deal with one advisor from the first message to the final landing.
