How much does it cost to charter your aircraft?

Our aircraft are priced at $1,500 per hour.    Because we can leverage our overhead amongst our other aviation companies we can provide our clients with extremely cost-efficient charter solutions.

Why is my charter quote more than the hourly aircraft rate?

Our aircraft are priced at $1,500 per hour. However, there are FBO handling and parking fees, overnight expenses for the flight crew including accommodations and meals if applicable.  In addition in some locations such as the Bahamas fuel is double the price and we must add a fuel surcharge. Finally, the U.S. government imposes a 7.5% excise tax on air travel.
