Why Fractional Jet Ownership is the Smarter Choice

Jet card memberships may seem convenient at first glance, but they often come with hidden costs, inconsistent availability, and a lack of control over your travel experience. Fractional Jet Ownership, on the other hand, provides a more reliable, flexible, and cost-effective solution for frequent travellers.


Let's Break It Down

1. Cost Efficiency & Predictability

Jet Card Membership: Although advertised prices can be attractive, jet cards are just a pre-payment of a portion of private charter costs. High hourly rates, fuel surcharges, and repositioning fees can add up quickly, making costs unpredictable.

Fractional Jet Ownership with AirSprint: A cost-effective solution with transparent pricing, no repositioning costs, predictable expenses, and better long-term value for frequent flyers.

2. Guaranteed Access vs. Uncertain Availability

Jet Card Membership: Availability is subject to fleet demand, peak-day restrictions, and blackout dates. During high-traffic times, you may face delays or even be left without an aircraft.

Fractional Jet Ownership with AirSprint: Enjoy guaranteed access to a private jet when you need it. Your aircraft is always ready, ensuring seamless, stress-free travel.

3. Consistency & Quality of Aircraft

Jet Card Membership: Aircraft quality and interiors vary, as you may fly on different operators' jets with varying maintenance standards.

Fractional Jet Ownership with AirSprint: Fly on a meticulously maintained, modern fleet, with every jet held to the highest safety and quality standards.

4. Personalized Service & Experience

Jet Card Membership: You fly with different operators, leading to inconsistent service, varying crew experience, and an impersonal travel experience.

Fractional Jet Ownership with AirSprint: Fly with a team that knows your preferences, ensuring personalized service every time. Our dedicated crew and Owner Services team provide a seamless and elevated experience.

5. True Ownership & Investment

Jet Card Membership: You’re essentially renting time on an aircraft, with no equity or long-term benefits.

Fractional Jet Ownership with AirSprint: You own a share of a jet, benefiting from its value while enjoying a superior private aviation experience.

6. The Canadian Choice

We introduced Fractional Jet Ownership to Canada, setting a new standard for private jet travel. We were the first, and 25 years on, our team continues to deliver a truly exclusive private aviation experience—one that empowers successful Canadians to live fuller, more rewarding lives.

What is positioning and repositioning?

Positioning or repositioning typically occurs when an aircraft must travel empty to pick-up passengers at another location or return to its homebase after completing a passenger drop-off. These flights are commonly known as Empty Legs. At AirSprint, our Fractional Owners never pay more for the positioning or repositioning flights required to complete their mission—they only pay for their time on-board. In contrast, with other operators in Canada, a client requesting a pick-up will be responsible for covering the associated costs of positioning an aircraft to their location.
