Guide

What is jet sharing?

One seat on a private jet, sold by the seat. A middle path between first class and chartering the whole aircraft.

Jet sharing, also called semi-private or by-the-seat flying, sells individual seats on a scheduled or crowd-filled private flight. You get the FBO, the small cabin and the short boarding — without paying for the empty seats.

How it works

There are two models. Scheduled semi-private carriers run fixed routes on business-class aircraft from private terminals. Crowd-filled flights start as a charter that one traveller opens up, and the remaining seats are sold until it fills.

Pricing is per seat and fixed once published. Taxes are included in the carrier's fare for scheduled services, so the number you see is the number you pay.

On a shared flight you travel with strangers, luggage is limited, and the schedule is fixed. For solo travellers and couples on busy routes that trade is usually worth it.

How to book in three steps

  1. 01

    Pick a flight

    Choose a published shared flight with seats remaining. Cards show the aircraft class, departure time and price per seat.

  2. 02

    Reserve seats

    Tell us how many seats you need and who is flying. Seats are held once the carrier confirms and payment details are arranged.

  3. 03

    Board at the FBO

    Arrive about thirty minutes before departure. Check-in is a conversation, not a queue.
