Why Use Charter to Supplement Your Flight Program?
Thousands of private flyers are already doing it. Many use jet cards or fractional programs for guaranteed availability — and then turn to charter when flexibility and cost savings align.
Cut Costs, Not Comfort
Jet cards can cost $9,000–$11,000/hr. Principal Aviation finds comparable jets for up to 40% less — with no fees, no commitments, and full transparency.
Preserve Your Prepaid Hours
Save your jet program hours for high-value trips. Use on-demand charter for short hops or last-minute flights and stretch your investment.
Right Aircraft for the Mission
Switch between light, midsize, or large-cabin jets as needed. Charter gives you total flexibility to match the jet to each trip — no waste, no limits.
No Contracts. No Strings.
Only pay when you fly. No buy-ins, no annual minimums — just freedom to fly on your terms.
