These are estimates, not quotes from Tradewind Aviation.
How does Tradewind Aviation compare with other jet cards from Boston to Orange County?
Among 6 published turboprop figures on this route, Tradewind Aviation's Goodspeed estimate is the 3rd lowest, 1% below the route's median of $55,400. The spread runs from $32,200 to $59,200. CRAFT's Fleet Jet Card is super-midsize only, so it isn't in this turboprop comparison; its estimate is with the super-midsize figures on the route page. Estimates use each company's own published rate as of the date shown, on the same tax and fuel basis, before minimums, fees and surcharges.
Does the Tradewind Aviation estimate include tax and fuel?
Per Tradewind Aviation's published terms, tax is added on top of the rate, and a fuel surcharge is added on top. To compare like for like with rates that include fuel and tax, we add the 7.5% federal excise tax where a company says it's extra or doesn't say, and a fuel surcharge of $300 an hour (the low end of the $300–$800 range we use) where it adds one without publishing the amount; nothing for fuel where it doesn't say fuel is extra. Airport fees, the segment tax, peak days and repositioning can add to any of these figures.
