There are very different ways to book a private flight: platforms that list empty legs from many operators, charter brokers, the operator directly, jet cards or aircraft shares, or by the seat. This overview groups the providers that appear most often in empty leg searches and compares each of them with PrivJet.
With PrivJet you search 10,000+ empty legs from 200+ operators in one place, get free quotes from several operators for your own route and follow private jets on the free live map. There is no membership: you pay the flight price + 20% service fee, shown before you book and only due once the operator has confirmed your flight.
