In a surprise move, Flexjet, which quietly moved ahead with the European launch of its shared ownership program last November, has now quietly added a jet card to its private jet solutions portfolio.
Ajax Jets is a new jet card provider founded earlier this year by industry veteran John Sullivan.
The follow-up to the uber-popular Bombardier Challenger 300, this super-midsize cabin private jet has become a mainstay for both major fractional providers, NetJets and Flexjet.
The Challenger 350 and its identical sister the Challenger 300 are popular as non-ownership dedicated jet card options as well.
The price for a used Challenger 350 starts at about $13 million.

After testing jet card offerings in Chicago and Dallas earlier this year, Priester Aviation is now rolling out its entry into the increasingly crowded jet card market. According to an email received by Private Jet Card Comparisons, the program named Centerline will be “by invitation only” and is targeted “for the world’s most discerning traveler.” Since the Great Recession, the number of jet card providers has more than doubled with over 40 sellers and over 250 different programs. Jet cards as a product type are increasingly coming in more flavors, including dynamic pricing and denominations starting at five hours. Earlier today, Wheels Up announced it will launch a membership program next year targeting fliers who need less than 10 hours per year. On the other end of the market, there are jet cards with published pricing up to 100 hours.
