Private jet travel provider XOJet announced a new flat-rate plan for one-way transcontinental flights between select destinations on the east and west coast. For $25,000 customers can fly between the preferred airports of Teterboro (outside New York), Northeast Philadelphia, Bedford (near Boston), or Manassas (outside Washington, D.C.) on the east coast, and Van Nuys (in Los Angeles), Oakland, Henderson (near Las Vegas), Carlsbad (near San Diego), and Deer Valley which serves Phoenix and Scottsdale.

While sites like Virgin Charter have made searching for the cheapest charter flight easier, it can still be inconvenient to sort through the various bids from providers to find the flight that works best. Even for the most diligent searchers, a $25,000 flight on a super-midsize aircraft is going to be on the low end of what’s returned. The XOJet offer also includes arrival and departure ground transportation as well as catering. There are no hourly surcharges, extra fuel costs, or repositioning fees, and the trips will be made on a Cessna Citation X.

The Citation X is currently the fastest civil aviation jet in the world, capable of flying at Mach .92, just below the speed of sound, getting you from New York to Los Angeles in around four and a half hours.

XOJet’s new deal is a perfect example of their business model in action. The company, which received the largest cash infusion in private aviation history last year, uses a network of fixed base operators in specific cities, and relies on a single plane type.

One of the main advantages of private aviation may be the ability to fly anywhere one likes, but given the fact that so many corporate and individual fliers are going between major cities on each coast a streamlined plan like this makes a lot of sense. As the recession has forced many fliers to reign in their spending, a value proposition like this is likely to have a lot of appeal. Last week, we saw Flexjet lower prices for its Flexjet 25 card. XOJet’s new transcontinental pricing strategy seems to be part of a growing trend towards value in the industry.
