Jet card and on-demand charter broker Stratos Jet Charters is giving away five franchises.

Entries to win the fully turn-key jet charter brokerage franchises must be submitted by March 21, 2025.

President and CEO Joel Thomas says, “Stratos Jets is revolutionizing private aviation by aggregating demand under one brand and is projecting exponential growth in 2025.”

He adds, “We have thoughtfully crafted the franchise model to eliminate ongoing expenses and financial risks, empowering ambitious individuals to establish and grow their private jet charter brokerage.”

Stratos Jet Charters launched the franchise program last year.

There are currently two franchises.

Thomas says the value of each franchise is $200,000.

He adds, “We’re excited to offer a limited opportunity to waive this fee for five highly qualified candidates based on specific eligibility criteria. This waiver reduces the upfront cost, though franchisees should anticipate an additional estimated investment of $24,000 to $65,000 to launch their business, covering expenses like training, marketing, and operational setup (detailed in the Franchise Disclosure Document).”

Thomas notes, “What sets our franchise apart is the comprehensive support franchisees receive from day one. This includes access to our dedicated team of trip support and accounting professionals to handle post-sale operations, proprietary Stratos FMS software, merchant services, federal excise tax (FET) collection and remittance processes, ARGUS Certified Broker status, a $50 million non-owned aircraft liability policy, an extensive training program for developing private flight advisors, and proven marketing strategies for lead generation.”

According to its website, ideal candidates will have more than three years of experience, make 100+ bookings annually, and generate $3 million+ in revenue booked annually, with a 12% or more annualized margin and 24 or more new clients produced.
