Leases start at just one-month instead of the typical 36 months for VistaJet’s Program, its version of a jet card

Many airlines have totally cut or drastically reduced international flights. VistaJet specializes in long-haul and intercontinental private jet flights

The high-end luxury private jet operator is also launching a humanitarian relief plan

VistaJet is launching Dynamic Jet Lease, a new short-term option providing guaranteed access.

Many airlines have been drastically cutting international flights, including grounding all international operations. In other cases, routes that previously had multiple daily nonstop flights are now served only a couple times per week.

VistaJet says the new program offers a short-term lease over one, two or three months. You get a dedicated aircraft and crew positioned at the nearest possible airport to you.

Like Coke or Pepsi, Mercedes or BMW, for many private jet users, it’s either a Gulfstream or Global Express, not both

Before Gulfstream acquired Galaxy Aerospace in 2001, a Gulfstream simply referred to the very top of the private jet market, the Ritz-Carlton of private jets, the Rolls Royce of business jets, take your choice.

Those signature oval windows made a Gulfstream easy to spot from the other side of the runway.

However, times change and Canadian manufacturer Bombardier Business Aircraft has over the past two decades firmly positioned its Global Express family of ultra-long-haul private jets as a fierce rival to Gulfstream.

Oprah Winfrey and Steven Spielberg are Global Express owners, as is Herb Kohler and Tony Robbins.

In addition to full ownership, there are options for fractional ownership, leases, on-demand charter, and jet card membership for the Global family.

Additionally, there’s more in the future. In 2018, Corporate Jet Investor reported, “Rolls-Royce has developed two new Pearl engines for the aircraft and Bombardier has reprofiled the wings compared to its existing Global 5000 and Global 6000 aircraft. This means that the Global 5500 will be able to fly 5,700 nautical miles and the Global 6500 some 6,600 nautical miles.”
