Jettly launches Smart Match™: AI-powered private jet charter matching in 24 hours

Jettly's new Smart Match™ AI technology connects private jet charter travelers with vetted operators and aircraft in under 24 hours globally.

‍

TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA, September 14, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Jettly today launched Smart Match™, an AI workflow that matches private jet charter clients with a vetted operator and aircraft within 24 hours, replacing the multi-day phone-and-email sourcing cycle that still defines most of the industry.

How Smart Match™ works

When a client submits a trip request, Smart Match™ ingests route, aircraft preference, timing, and budget, then canvasses Jettly's global operator marketplace. AI models rank availability, positioning cost, safety ratings, and price, generate quotes, and return a shortlist of confirmed, priced options, all without the manual sourcing, quote generation, and CRM handoffs that typically stretch a charter booking across three to five days.

Jettly is rolling the workflow out as the default routing engine for every charter request submitted through the platform, in the United States and internationally, effective immediately. The company says early operator partners on the marketplace are seeing faster lead qualification and higher quote-to-book conversion in the initial rollout.

A competitive field racing to embed AI

The cutting-edge AI technology embedded in Jettly's Smart Match™ service analyzes client preferences, flight requirements, and other key factors to provide personalized private jet charter recommendations. By streamlining the matching process, Jettly ensures that customers are promptly connected with the most suitable private jet options, saving them valuable time and effort.

With the introduction of Smart Match™, Jettly sets a new standard for private jet charter services by offering a seamless and expedited booking experience. Clients can now access a curated selection of private jets tailored to their specific needs, all facilitated by advanced AI algorithms. This strategic integration of technology underscores Jettly's commitment to enhancing customer satisfaction and convenience in the private aviation sector.

From broker-led to AI-assisted

The launch of this new feature reflects a broader shift across high-value industries as AI agents begin to take over workflows traditionally performed by human intermediaries.

In private aviation, aircraft availability can vary based on location, timing, aircraft type, routing, and other operational considerations. Historically, charter brokers conduct multiple searches and communications before presenting travelers with doable choices.

"The opportunity with AI in private aviation isn't just eliminating steps", Justin Crabbe, CEO & Founder, said. "The goal is not simply to make the booking process faster, but to create an environment where travelers can have greater visibility into available aircraft and options".

For Jettly, this move represents another step toward its broader vision of making private aviation more accessible through technology while preserving the flexibility and premium experience travelers expect from an on-demand private charter.

About Jettly

Jettly operates a global private jet charter marketplace connecting travelers with vetted operators and aircraft across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific. The company uses AI, marketplace scale, and digital-first booking to modernize how private aviation is sourced and delivered.

DC-9: From Delta Air Lines Workhorse to Private Charter Ico

The Douglas DC-9, introduced in 1965, revolutionized short- to medium-haul air travel by enabling efficient operations from smaller airports, with Delta Air Lines as its launch customer. Over its 17-year production run, nearly 1,000 DC-9s were built, known for their reliability and ability to serve routes that were previously impractical for jets.
