VistaJet pricing and access

VistaJet’s version of a jet card is called the Program. Typically, it means a three-year commitment with at least 50 hours per year.

In addition to hourly subscriptions, it will offer managed leasing.

Of course, with nonstop flights of up to 14 hours, many Global 7500 users will want to buy more than 50 hours per year.

VistaJet founder and chairman Thomas Flohr previously said he believes the new private jets will attract customers from the Boeing Business Jet and Airbus Corporate Jets.

He points to access to smaller airports and speed, in other words, time savings, as being a standout feature for the Global 7500s.
