Long Term Aircraft Rental

Long-Term Aircraft Rental at JetVIP: The Perfect Choice for Your Business

If you frequently use business aviation and need an aircraft ready for departure within 2-3 hours from your current location, long-term aircraft rental with a crew is your best solution.

Who Is Long-Term Aircraft Rental Suitable For?

This service is ideal for those who value their time and money while seeking flexibility, comfort, and confidentiality. With long-term rental, your aircraft is always ready for flight, and you can choose dates and routes according to your needs. A dedicated crew will be available 24/7, ready to fly you to any destination worldwide.

Long-term rental is suitable for both individuals and businesses planning to fly a minimum of 40-50 hours per month. A great option is to consider shared aircraft rentals with several partners (Private Jet Share). For example, five people can rent a Hawker 850 or Challenger 300 (50 hours per month) and distribute the hours among themselves, resulting in significant savings for each.

What’s Included in the Aircraft Rental Cost?

In a long-term rental agreement, you pay the operator a “guaranteed flight time,” which refers to the minimum number of hours per month, usually ranging from 40 to 60 hours depending on the type of aircraft. This guarantees the airline a certain amount of flight time each month.

•For light aircraft, this is typically 30-40 hours.

•For heavier aircraft like the Challenger 605 or Legacy 600, a minimum of 60-80 hours per month is required.

Any additional hours beyond the guaranteed amount will be charged at a pre-agreed rate that is fixed in the contract. Your company will assign a personal manager available 24/7 to handle all inquiries related to aircraft bookings and flight execution.

Example: Cost Calculation for Long-Term Rental of a Hawker 850XP

Suppose a client wishes to rent a cost-effective aircraft for transporting 3-6 passengers based in Chelyabinsk. The flight geography will consist of 70% domestic flights (Moscow, Sochi, Irkutsk, St. Petersburg) and 30% international flights (France, Italy, UAE, etc.).

Our company selected a Hawker 850XP (2008 model, 8 seats) with Russian registration and a professional crew. After negotiations with the airline, we secured a deal for 40 hours per month at a rate of 4,000 euros per hour, which is the minimum guaranteed flight time.

The hourly rate includes aircraft rental, crew operations, fuel, and airport fees. Additional charges apply for VIP terminal access, VIP catering, anti-icing treatment for the aircraft, and parking fees at airports outside the base airport.

Total cost: The rental of the Hawker 850XP for 40 hours per month would amount to 160,000 euros + additional variable costs (around 14,000 euros). The total cost “all-inclusive” would be 174,000 euros.
