What Makes Our Solution Different?
Magellan Jets offers competitive rates, lower daily minimums, and a more comprehensive service area than Wheels Up. Enjoy 365-day access, zero blackout days, and the backing of our 24/7, in-house Flight Support Department—and while Wheels Up has made headlines due to their financial difficulties, Magellan Jets remains financially stable, profitable, asset-light, and completely debt-free, giving you the ultimate peace of mind in your investment.
Better Value for Short Legs & the Caribbean
Wheels Up’s programs feature higher daily minimums and a restrictive service area. Magellan offers more value for guests who frequently fly shorter legs, with lower daily minimums—1.5 hours across all jet types. Our programs also offer fixed-rate travel to the Caribbean, while Wheels Up charges variable dynamic pricing.

Unlimited Access to Your Aircraft
If you want to fly with zero blackout days, Wheels Up requires a deposit of at least $200k. Our programs offer a 365-day guarantee—even during holidays, peak periods, or other times when private jet availability is harder to come by—so you’ll always have a jet when you need it.

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 was the first asset-light private aviation provider named to the Air Charter Safety Foundation, and our CEO, Joshua Hebert, also served as Chairman and was a founding ACSF member.

Customize Your Jet Card
Magellan Jets offers a complete lineup of the safest, most dependable, and most sought-after private aircraft on the market, on the most flexible programs in the industry. You’ll purchase flight hours in 25-hour increments, choosing between our four cabin-category cards and three premium jet-specific cards.
