Silver Air Private Jets is joining several private jet operators launching their own jet cards. However, its launch into the market certainly is one of the most interesting we’ve seen.

The light jet operator has decided to continue its jet card business under a single brand
Exec 1 Aviation, which just last year launched DashJet as a
brokerage arm, has now folded it under the mother brand. The move, which took
place in March was driven by litigation threats from a major aviation company
that was using the Dash brand for cargo, as well as a branding decision.
“Everything that DashJet was doing now exists under Exec 1 Aviation,” says Katherine Forst, director of customer engagement.

Most jet card companies charge you the same rate regardless of where you fly, what airports you use, how much bookings notice you give, and how long you stay. So, if you fly from New York to Florida for a weekend and you book three days in advance, you pay the same rate as someone who takes a two-week trip from Idaho to Mississippi and booked on 10 hours’ notice. Because of this, rates have to subsidize the cost of those who book last-minute flights or fly to or from remote regions. JET ALGO utilizes proprietary algorithms to create a pricing model based on your logistical profile. The result is a price structure based on when and where you fly, not someone else.
