Jets.com cuts daily minimums on light and midsize jets

Jet card seller Jets.com is cutting the daily minimums on light and midsize jets by 40% as it continues its free hours promotions.

Jets.com is slashing the daily minimums on its light and midsize jets for jet card customers.

The new lower daily minimums fall to 72 minutes.

The minimum previously was 120 minutes, although the flight provider would negotiate down to 90 minutes for efficient flying.

That means a 40% reduction from the two-hour daily minimum.

Reduced daily minimums target new clients.

However, for renewing clients, it is open to possible concessions based on their flight patterns.

Jets.com doesn’t charge taxi time.

Most jet cards charge 12 minutes per segment.

It’s often positioned as six minutes for takeoff taxi and six more for landing.

Still, six plus six is 12 minutes of expense.

Per our quarterly Jet Card Pricing and Policy comparison:

  • Light jet minimums increased from 68.4 minutes to 68.7 minutes quarter-to-quarter.
  • However, they are below the 78.1-minute average for light jet daily minimums five years ago.
  • Midsize daily minimums dropped from 83.7 minutes to 77.3 minutes in the five years.

The above numbers do not delineate whether taxi time is additional or included in the daily minimums.

The move applies to both its category jet cards and All-Access jet cards.

Jets.com promotion

The hybrid jet card seller—a broker with its Part 135 operator—also offers a jet card deal for category jet card buyers.

If you buy 20 hours, you get two hours free.

For 40 hours, you get four free hours.

While category cards allow upgrades and downgrades, there is an interchange fee.

The All Access card starts at $400,000 without an interchange fee and offers a rate lock until funds are utilized.
