On-Demand Charter

Traditional on-demand charter is nearly as old as aviation itself. In the last ten years, it has been slickly updated with nationalized brokers, third-party rating services, certified fleets and crews, unified service and card programs. But with on-demand charter, each trip is a new transaction. There are no guarantees on pricing, specific aircraft, or even schedule availability until you book. A little research goes a long way with on-demand charter flights.

On-demand charter can also be both the cheapest and most expensive way to fly private. If the airplane has to fly empty to pick you up, you'll be charged for that extra leg. Conversely, you can score some great empty leg deals by hopping on a jet that needs to offset operating costs before flying back to its home base.
