CRAFT Jet Card: a guaranteed Challenger on every hour.

It depends on the aircraft size, the card size and how much notice you give. On the CRAFT Fleet Jet Card, a Challenger 300 or 350, the published hourly rates are 25 hours: $12,950 (Planner), $13,700 (Priority), $14,450 (Express); 50 hours: $12,650 (Planner), $13,400 (Priority), $14,150 (Express); 100 hours: $12,250 (Planner), $13,000 (Priority), $13,750 (Express). Rates are fuel and FET included: fuel within the index band and the 7.5% federal excise tax on domestic legs. Peak days, trips inside 48 hours and international repositioning cost extra.

Our 25-hour card is $323,750 prepaid, at $12,950 an hour on the Planner (5 days) callout, fuel and FET included. Other programs price 25-hour cards by aircraft size, and many only quote on a sales call, so compare what each rate includes as well as the number.

A jet card is prepaid private jet flying: you buy a block of hours, usually 25, 50 or 100, at a fixed hourly rate for an aircraft size, and book flights with a set amount of notice. You don't own any part of an aircraft and you don't negotiate each trip. The terms that decide the real cost are the minimums, peak days, callout and what the rate includes.

A card makes sense when you fly often enough that pricing every trip gets tiring, roughly 25 hours a year or more, and you want a fixed rate and a guaranteed aircraft size on known notice. If you fly a few trips a year or your plans are hard to predict, on-demand charter is usually the better fit, and we will tell you so.

Published rates, fuel and FET included: 25 hours at $12,950/hr ($323,750), 50 hours at $12,650/hr ($632,500), 100 hours at $12,250/hr ($1,225,000).

Planner: 5 days, base rate. Priority: 72 hours, +$750/hr. Express: 48 hours, +$1,500/hr. Inside 48 hours, card trips fly as available at +20%.

2 hours per day flown, with no per-leg minimum and 12 minutes of taxi a leg. A same-day there-and-back of two short legs bills the 2 hours once, not twice.

Peak days are the busiest travel dates of the year, like Thanksgiving week, Christmas to New Year's, and spring break, when demand spikes. There are about 45 a year. Card flights on those dates are +20% and need 30 days' notice.

Fixed one-way rates with no ferry or repositioning fees anywhere in the lower 48. The Caribbean, Mexico and Canada are quoted with repositioning to and from the service area at $4,000 an hour, plus international handling.

Fuel within the published index band, the 7.5% federal excise tax on domestic legs, 12 minutes of taxi per leg, standard catering, pets, de-icing and Starlink. No membership or annual fees. Cancellation is free up to 48 hours before departure outside peak days.

It depends on how you fly. Charter is priced trip by trip and you pay only for what you take, which suits travel that is occasional or hard to predict. The card buys hours up front at a published rate, fuel and FET included, so you stop pricing every trip and always fly the same Challengers. If you are not sure which fits, tell us roughly how often you expect to fly and we will say which one suits you.

CRAFT does. We hold our own FAA Part 135 certificate, operate the five Challengers, maintain them in house, and employ the crews who fly them. When you call, you are talking to the people who schedule the aircraft and crews.

Nine on a Challenger 300 and eight on a Challenger 350. A flight attendant takes a cabin seat, so a 300 with one on board seats eight. For a group larger than that we can put more than one aircraft on the same trip.

We have flown charter since 2020 with a spotless safety record. Every flight operates under FAA Part 135 rules, including owner trips, and we are ARGUS Platinum Rated, which requires an on-site audit, and listed on the Wyvern registry.
