Fractional Jet Ownership alternatives

Fractional Jet Ownership alternatives.

 

With access to over 4,000 jets worldwide, Blue Star Jets offers unprecedented flexibility and selection of aircraft. Rather than being tied to a specific jet as with fractional programs, with Blue Star Jets, you can select the right aircraft for each trip: heavy jets for long trips; light jets for shorter trips. The flexibility to use a different size jet from among the finest corporate jets in the industry is just one of the reasons to join the SkyCard Program.

 

What makes the SkyCard even more compelling is that a jet is always available for your flight. You do not have to contend with co-owners when you are ready to fly. Another advantage of the Blue Star Jets SkyCard program is our strict adherence to the stringent requirements of Part 135 of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations. These standards are much stricter than the Part 91 rules that apply to fractionally owned aircraft.

 

As a result, you can fly with peace of mind and enjoy the comfort and style that goes along with flying with Blue Star Jets.
