Magellan Jets vs. NetJets
financial stability
Reliability & Stability
Unlike NetJets, Magellan Jets has never shuttered our Jet Card program. Throughout these last years of economic instability, our leadership identified the shifts in the market and pivoted accordingly. During one of the most challenging periods for private travel, we kept Jet Cards open for all new customers while ensuring our existing Jet Card Owners had full access to their programs.
Access & Flexibility
Unlimited Access to Your Aircraft
With NetJets’ 25-hour lease and Jet Card, there are 45 days per year where you cannot fly at all, and 45 more where NetJets reserves the right to change your departure time. Additionally, you aren’t guaranteed the ability to upgrade to a larger jet if you need one. With Magellan, there are zero blackout days, giving you ultimate flexibility to pair the perfect aircraft with your needs—even on holidays and other busy dates.
Avoid the Traps of Fractional Ownership
With NetJets fractional ownership and leases, you’ll be locked into a three-to-five-year agreement with excessive monthly fees and funds that expire at the end of your contract. Magellan’s Jet Card program has no monthly maintenance or membership fees and no multi-year contract commitment—plus, the funds on your account are refundable and never expire, and you won’t be locked into a depreciating asset.
safety
Industry-Leading Safety
The real-time safety auditing we perform on every leg of every flight far surpasses our competitors. But we don’t simply exceed safety standards—we have a direct hand in driving the conversation and raising standards for the entire industry. Magellan Jets was the first asset light provider named to the Air Charter Safety Foundation, and our CEO, Joshua Hebert, also served as Chairman and was a founding ACSF member.
