Advantages of hiring a business jet

When you hire a private jet, you get:

  • Comfort

Flying should be a pleasure, which is why we put all our expertise into making your experience on-board as comfortable as possible.

  • Security and confidentiality

Travelling by private aircraft guarantees your privacy. The captain and the entire crew will ensure that you feel completely safe.

  • Flexibility

You can choose the time, reach airports inaccessible to scheduled flights, get as close as possible to your final destination, or even alter your flight time.

  • Worldwide coverage

Connected to more than 1,600 airlines worldwide, we give you access to over 9,000 airports as close as possible to your final destination. Some landings are not possible on regular routes because the aircraft are too heavy. That’s why chartering private aircraft is a better solution than using business class.

  • Save time

Board until the last minute before take-off. The average waiting time before boarding is 15 minutes, so you save time by hiring a private plane!

  • Private terminals and customised VIP services

All passenger requests, from car or helicopter transfer to bespoke catering and goods transport, are possible. Unlike low-cost companies, our airline operators also keep to schedule with no delays allowed.

  • Profitability

Our unique technology allows us to quickly find the best price charter solutions in real-time to organise your urgent business trips.

Fast, quiet and efficient, mid-size jets are perfect for those looking for the comfort of a large jet and the versatility of a private jet.

Electric aircraft: the aeronautical solutions of the future

Numerous prototypes are in progress, financed by major aeronautical groups and smaller startups. One of the solutions for carrying more electric batteries and flying longer is to create aircraft with lighter materials. In 2050, the planes will therefore be very different from those we are used to seeing today.

According to Elon Musk, the supersonic plane – such as the Boom Supersonic and the NASA X-59 – represents the future of aviation. However, its impact on the environment is such that it is unlikely to become widespread for the time being.

Purchase price of a business jet

If you prefer to have complete freedom in the use of your aircraft, buying a private jet is surely the best choice.

Buying your own aircraft will allow you to acquire one of the new models offering various advantages in terms of speed, passenger capacity and distance. However, before starting the purchase process, you should remember that becoming an aircraft owner means outlining your needs in advance.

Here is a summary of the costs to be considered when buying a private jet:

For the purchase of a small private jet such as the Phenom 100:

  • Price approximately 5 million euros.
  • Annual depreciation of €800,000 per year.
  • Operating costs of approximately €150,000 per year (crew salaries, maintenance, parking fees, civil liability, interior repair and refurbishment costs and insurance costs).
  • Unforeseen incidents requiring intervention: approximately €50,000 per year.
  • Total annual costs: €1 million.

These costs vary according to the size of the private jet. Light private jets such as the Phenom 100 are much more affordable than regional jets for example.
