Aircraft, Pilots and Operations
The average charter aircraft in the U.S. is over 15 years old. This difference is noticeable not only in the lack of consistency in aircraft internal and external appearance, but also in the presence of mandated safety instrumentation and avionics at the pilots' disposal. Charter pilot experience, training levels and familiarity with the aircraft vary greatly; as does the supporting maintenance, operations and levels of insurance. With the Marquis Jet Card you have guaranteed access to the exclusive NetJets fleet, with an average aircraft age of 5 years and the most highly trained pilots in the world backed by world class maintenance and operations.

Cost Predictability
A chartered flight will often include such charges as empty legs (e.g. dead-legs and/or ferrying), landing fees, wait times and positioning. You may also be charged for minimum daily usage, catering and late cancellation fees. The Marquis Jet Card is available for a simple, upfront payment for 25-hours of flight time, with none of the extra charges associated with charter.
