Fractional charter question
 

I know that a lot of the big fractional companies also have "flight card" charter programs like the 25-hr Marquis, Flexjet, Vector, JetPASS, etc.

My question is, do any of the fractional companies take just regular, one-at-a-time charter requests without having to buy an entire card? Can I call up NetJets or Flexjet without having any sort of membership for a flight?

It is my understanding that you can not do that at Netjets, Flexjet or Citation Shares (please correct me if I'm wrong). You can do that at XOJET though. Our model is a little different than standard Fractionals.

sorta at flexjet. You can call up Skyjet (skyjet.com) and book a flight. I dont think it is guaranteed to be on a flexjet plane tho, but most likely it will be

Thanks folks. I appreciate the info. Looks like the choice is XOJet or Flexjet for on-demand charter but not the other fractionals.

Ahhh, just do the right thing and call Flexjet.

(a friendly dig at my friends at all the other frac's who are proud of their product also!)

Cheers!:D

Not possible at CitationShares.

Aircraft | Flexjet 25 Fractional Jet Card Program

This is a link to the FlexJet 25 Program. Both pilots have aircraft specific type ratings and both Captains and First Officers are required to attend training twice per year.

I believe our average age of our fleet is around 2.5 years old ans our aircraft are taken out of service after 7 years.

I have been with FlexJet since April and have nothing but good things to say about the company. Our maintenance is top-notch, the pilots are some of the most experienced, best trained and professional of any pilot group I have flown with, and the entire company does whatever it takes to ensure our owners have an exceptional, safe and accommodating experience.

I wouldn't hesitate to put my wife and kids on any FlexJet aircraft with any FlexJet crew. There are other places that I have flown for that I simply could not make that claim.

Best wishes and I hope to see you on one of our flights! I will PM you with some contact information.

Skyjet uses a lot of charter wholesale lift. My old company (now defunct) had 8 airplanes on year long contracts with Skyjet. Our aircraft age was 7-15 years. Our POC was in Richardson so I always assumed it was the same building/staff as Flex.

It is. I think SkyJet is on the 2nd floor and Flex is on the 3rd.

As others have said, not possible with NetJets, because they're not our planes to charter out. They belong to our share owners. The MarquisJet Card is possible because Marquis (a separate company, not owned by NetJets) owns airplane shares commensurate with the hours they sell.
