VistaJet slices 2025 peak days for Program, VJ25

VistaJet is the latest jet card provider to cut the number of peak days for its 2025 calendar.

Customers in its two fixed-rate, guaranteed availability programs will see the number of peak days cut.

Members of the Program, which starts at 50 hours per year, will see only 10 peak days.

That compares to 20 peak days in the past several years.

VJ25, VistaJet’s entry-level at 25 hours per year, sees peak days go from 40 to 30 days per year in the U.S.

International member peak days go to 29.

VJ25 has had 40 annual peak days since its 2022 launch.

The number of peak days was reduced for its U.S. and international calendars, although the specific dates vary.

The VistaJet program offers worldwide fixed-rates with guaranteed availability on 24 to 48 hours notice.

Fixed rates carry a 20% surcharge for segments outside its primary service area, such as South America and Australia.

At the end of 2024, average peak days had dropped to 44.6 dates per year, down from their 2022 high of 55.7 days.

Before the Covid surge for private jet flights, the average number of peak days was 22.8 per year for guaranteed rate and availability programs.
