Jettly Launches Special Missions, Expanding On-Demand Access to Helicopters, Group Charter, Cargo, Medevac and VIP Airliners

One digital marketplace now covers the aircraft and missions that once took days of phone calls and manual sourcing.

‍

Jettly, the digital private aviation marketplace, today launched Special Missions, a new feature set that brings helicopters, group charter, cargo, medevac, and VIP airliners into the same instant-pricing, on-demand experience travelers already use for private jets.

Until now, these categories have largely been arranged offline, through slow quote cycles and relationship-driven sourcing. Special Missions puts them on Jettly's platform, where customers can search by aircraft type and mission, compare options, and get pricing across a network of more than 23,000 aircraft.

"Some of the most important flights in aviation aren't a standard jet charter. They're a medical transfer, a time-critical cargo lift, or a 150-person corporate move," said Justin Crabbe, CEO and Founder of Jettly. "Special Missions gives those customers the same speed and transparency we built for private jet travel, backed by aviation specialists who understand how complex these requests are."

What's included in Special Missions

  • Helicopters: On-demand access to rotorcraft for executive transfers, regional hops, offshore and remote-site transport, and specialized operations.
  • Group Charter: Regional jets and airliners with 18 to 200 seats, for corporate teams, events, sports teams, and institutions.
  • Cargo: Dedicated freighter and cargo aircraft for urgent, oversized, and high-value shipments.
  • Medevac: Coordination of medical transport flights, from patient repatriation to pharmaceutical and humanitarian logistics.
  • VIP Airliners: Corporate-configured airliners for delegations, high-profile events, and large-scale executive travel.

A dedicated account team and 24/7 flight operations back Special Missions. Enterprise customers can also access volume pricing programs, custom contract structures, and API and travel platform integrations.

“Specialized aviation has traditionally involved a highly manual process of finding the right aircraft, identifying an operator, and coordinating the operational details,” said Crabbe. “Our objective is to make that ecosystem more accessible by bringing more of those possibilities into a digital marketplace.”

Independent, certified operators vetted through Jettly's network operate the aircraft. Jettly acts as a charter broker and does not own or operate aircraft.

Executive Jet Management vs NetJets vs Jettly: Private Aviation Options Explained

Executive Jet Management (EJM) and NetJets provide comprehensive management and operational support for privately owned aircraft, focusing on services like crew hiring, maintenance, and regulatory compliance, while also offering fractional ownership options. EJM operates over 230 aircraft globally and conducts more than 41,500 flights annually, allowing owners to offset costs by chartering their jets when not in use. In contrast, Jettly offers a flexible on-demand charter service with access to over 20,000 aircraft worldwide, catering to travelers who prefer not to commit to ownership. The choice between these options depends on flight frequency, budget, and specific travel needs, with Jettly often being more cost-effective for those flying fewer than 150 hours per year.
