A Cheaper Alternative To Purchasing A Business Jet- Fractional Ownership

By:


With so many ways to travel, there are many choices and many ways to spend your company's money. Most companies have a travel department, people that put together and coordinate all of the travel for the executives and managers and anybody else that needs to travel. Some companies are small enough or do so little traveling that flying commercial makes sense and is economically feasible, while other company's need to have the capability to fly anywhere at any time and at a moment's notice.

They may require the use of a jet at any moment to get anywhere half-way around the globe. Waiting for a commercial flight to take a team of individuals with them is going to be expensive along with difficult logistically. They may need a private airplane that the company owns and as long as the service and privilege isn't taken advantage of, it could make sense financially. But for some businesses, the use and ownership of a jet is not necessary, but they still require access to one.

That is where fractional ownership comes into play. It's a program where there is partial ownership of a jet. You buy in for a piece of the jet, generally 1/16 being the smallest buy-in. That's going to give you access to about 50 hours of flight over the course of a year. The higher percentage that you purchase, the more flying time you have access to. This is a greater program for a business or person that doesn't fly daily, but fly's more than fifty hours a year.

You're also accountable for a monthly maintenance cost, but you're not accountable for setting everything up or organizing the logistics of getting the airplane where you need it. In as little as a couple of hours, it's possible to have access to a private jet to take you to your destination. It may not be the jet which you own, because that one may be on the other side of the nation, however it will be one that's identical or at least equal to your plane, it could even be an upgrade if available.

There are some benefits to this type of program, one of them being that you are not responsible for the logistics or hiring of the crew. You know that every time you fly, you will have a plane that is up to date on every safety check and the pilot is well above government standards.
