FAQ: Private Jet Charters From Western Cape

Which Airport Is the Best Option for Departure on a Private Jet From Western Cape

Will My Western Cape Private Jet Charter Quote Include Everything?

Yes, Jettly's charter quotes include flight time, crew costs, fuel surcharges, airport landing and taxi fees, and all applicable taxes.
Optional services, such as meal service, ground transportation, and customs coordination, are quoted separately after we receive your inquiry.

Is Jettly Different From Netjets Or Vistajet?

NetJets and VistaJet are fractional ownership and proprietary jet card companies that utilize their own fleets of aircraft. They require an upfront commitment of funds and limit their clients' ability to choose an aircraft type. Jettly acts solely as a charter brokerage company, allowing clients access to virtually unlimited aircraft types worldwide at exceptional rates.
