Get Instant Pricing On 23,000+ Aircraft
Plane operating costs encompass the ongoing expenses necessary to keep an aircraft operational, distinct from its purchase price. These costs vary significantly by aircraft type, with small pistons costing around $150–$250 per flight hour, while heavy jets can exceed $8,000 per hour. For travelers flying less than 150–200 hours annually, chartering through platforms like Jettly is often more economical than ownership, which involves substantial fixed and variable costs. Jettly provides access to over 20,000 private charter aircraft globally, allowing users to avoid the complexities and financial burdens of aircraft ownership while enjoying the benefits of private aviation.

While he has long been associated with the Gulfstream G550, the economics of private aviation suggest that flexible access can be more efficient than whole-aircraft ownership for travelers flying fewer than several hundred hours per year. His evolving schedule illustrates why depreciation, fixed operating costs, productivity, and fleet flexibility increasingly shape how ultra-high-net-worth travelers approach private aviation.
