Cost & Pricing

    Is it cheaper to charter than buy a fractional share?

    Answered by the Haute Jets private aviation team.

    The short answer

    For most travelers flying fewer than 200 hours per year, on-demand charter is significantly more cost-effective than fractional ownership. NetJets fractional shares start at $300,000–$500,000 upfront plus monthly management fees. Charter has zero upfront cost — you pay only for flights you take.
