Availability is guaranteed, monthly management costs and occupied hourly rates are guaranteed, and the liquidity of your investment is sometimes guaranteed. The fractional aircraft ownership provider will usually guarantee to buy back your fractional interest at fair market value less a remarketing fee. Fair market value is what an informed and knowledgeable buyer and seller, each under no obligation to complete the transaction, would agree as the price for an aircraft, considering the date of manufacture, usage, where the plane resided, and its maintenance history. Fractional aircraft ownership is such a good idea, in fact, that many Fortune 500 and other companies with flight departments of their own use fractional aircraft ownership to supplement their fleets, thereby providing expanded and versatile transportation services to their executives. Others use it as their primary means of private air travel ensuring uncompromised safety, security, comfort, and privacy for themselves and their loved ones. buy a sHare – Gain access to a fLeet With your fractional aircraft ownership interest, you gain access to an entire fleet of private jets through an exchange agreement with the other owners in the program. You can often select an aircraft type different from the one that you own to satisfy a specific trip requirement. Typically, downgrades to smaller or lighter aircraft are guaranteed while upgrades to the larger and heavier jets are subject to availability. For example, you can dispatch a light or midsize cabin jet for a few passengers traveling short to medium distances, or you can schedule a large cabin jet to fly a greater number of people non-stop across the continent. a Wise use of caPitaL With fractional aircraft ownership, you are able to match your capital investment precisely to your air travel requirements. For example, if you want to fly 50 hours a year in a light cabin jet that has a value of $9 million for the entire aircraft, you can purchase a 1 ⁄16 ownership interest for less than $600,000 rather than buying the whole aircraft. As a result, you save over 93% of the out-of-pocket cost or approximately $8.4 million. Further, your maintenance costs and hourly rates are predictable over the duration of the fractional aircraft ownership agreement and, because they are pro-rated based on the number of hours you have access to annually, will be significantly less than if you owned the whole aircraft.

Depending on your individual circumstances, there may be tax advantages to fractional aircraft ownership. For example, if you use your ownership interest for business purposes, there may be tax benefits available, including depreciation. You should consult your tax advisor for guidance on these potential benefits. turnkey conVenience Many individuals and businesses find there are significant advantages to fractional aircraft ownership above and beyond the cost savings versus whole aircraft ownership. They prefer fractional aircraft ownership’s simplicity since the fractional aircraft company recruits, trains, and manages pilots and also manages and maintains the aircraft. They simply pick up the telephone, call their fractional aircraft program provider to schedule their trip, and an aircraft is dispatched to them at their desired location. A good fractional aircraft program is backed by a superior infrastructure – including pilot training, in-house FAA-licensed flight dispatch, in-house FAA-approved meteorology services, close maintenance supervision, flight planning, dedicated customer service representatives, security, and quality control functions. Most critically, they operate with an uncompromising attentiveness to safety and security. Some fractional aircraft programs offer pre-paid, short-term subleases of fractional interests in the form of a jet card, typically 25 hours at a time. Before choosing a jet card program, make certain that you will have access to the same fleet of aircraft and operational infrastructure used in the fractional aircraft ownership program, otherwise you may be in what is essentially a charter program.
