Thinking about chartering a private jet? Whether you’re planning a business trip or a luxury getaway to the California coast, this guide walks you through all your options—plus real-world pricing and insider tips to help you make the best decision.

🛩️ 1. On-Demand Private Jet Charters

Best For: Business travelers, last-minute trips, and luxury vacations.

With private jet rentals, you fly on your schedule—no ownership costs, no long-term commitment.

Why Travelers Love It:

  • Fly from private terminals—skip TSA lines and delays
  • Access regional airports like Monterey Jet Center or Salinas (SNS)
  • Pay per trip—only when you fly
  • Choose from dozens of jet types (Light, Midsize, Super Midsize, Heavy)

💰 Sample One-Way Pricing (Las Vegas Monterey):

  • Light Jet (4–6 seats): $5,500–$7,500
  • Midsize Jet (6–8 seats): $7,500–$9,500
  • Empty Legs: Save 50–70%—if you’re flexible with dates

🔍 Empty Legs are one-way repositioning flights offered at a discount. Availability changes daily.

Benefits:

  • Locked-in hourly rates

Best For: Ultra-frequent flyers logging 200+ hours/year or those seeking full control.

Advantages:

  • Aircraft always available when needed
  • Full customization (interiors, crew, branding)
