Pure Play Economics

Compare Typical PRIVATE CLIENT Pricing vs Jet Cards on Key Routes

Stop paying a “convenience tax” so big brands can fund celebrity ambassadors and corporate hospitality parties. You didn’t build your success by overpaying for generic service, and you shouldn’t start now.

While others prioritize their marketing budgets, we offer the same exact planes at direct-from-operator pricing. We leverage proprietary technology and two decades of operational precision to ensure you get the right plane at the right price, every time.

“We were on a fractional jet card that looked great on paper, but it became incredibly restrictive—especially around holidays and the days we actually wanted to fly. After enrolling in Private Client, we’re flying on the same aircraft model we originally signed up for—a Challenger 300—but for 20–30% less, with true year-round access. Once our card hours are used, we’ll be flying exclusively with The Jet Merchants.”

Ben B. Public Company CFO (retired)

“We had a membership with a major provider and a 25-hour jet card, and honestly just kept re-upping out of familiarity. Working with Luis and his team opened our eyes to how many better options were available. We’re now saving meaningful money, flying on newer and nicer aircraft, and keeping our jet card only for major events like the Super Bowl or The Masters—where it actually makes sense. Private Client is a must-have strategic move for frequent private flyers.”

Joshua W. Entrepreneur

“After flying private for over 20 years, the experience had become frustrating—constant account manager turnover, changing rules, rising prices, and everything pushed into apps. Since flying with The Jet Merchants, I’ve deleted at least ten apps. I love having one trusted point of contact and a concierge team that actually knows me and my family. We’re flying on top-tier aircraft brands at a fraction of the cost, on a true pay-as-you-fly model. Enrolling in Private Client was an easy decision.”

Rob B. Real Estate Investor

“I attended one of Luis’s presentations for our wealth firm and was introduced to the ownership and tax advantages of aircraft triple net leases. I shared the concept with a real estate client facing a significant tax burden and looking for a smarter way to deploy capital. After introducing him to Luis, the value became immediately clear. We evaluated several structures and landed on the perfect solution. Luis’s depth of knowledge is exceptional, and I highly recommend him as a speaker and advisor for any wealth firm.”

Ownership Services

Beyond Traditional Whole Ownership.

We assist individuals in selecting the right fractional ownership program for their specific needs. With 12+ different providers, there are very specific differences our consulting service will match you with the right one.

For the “hands off owner” looking for tax-advantaged ownership structure with little to no personal usage, Triple Net Leases provide incredible value and consistent monthly cash-flow.

The Final Word

You can navigate the complexities of private aviation alone—enduring scripted sales pitches and costly mistakes in a market designed to sell you the highest commissionable product. Too many providers today meet operational failures with a list of excuses, knowing your capital is nonrefundable and your options are limited. Stop playing private jet roulette with your time.
