flight_takeoffBook via Air PartnerFounded in 1961 in London and listed on the London Stock Exchange since 1995, Air Partner is one of Europe’s oldest and most respected private jet brokers. Over more than six decades of activity, the company has orchestrated emergency medical evacuations, diplomatic transports, stadium tours for the world’s biggest stars, and group charter flights for Fortune 100 companies. Its private jet division relies on a network of 8,000 certified aircraft in 150 countries to fulfil any request, from small turboprops to VIP Airbus ACJ320s.
Air Partner’s private jet broker model stands out for its expertise in complex situations: groups of 20 to 200 people, urgent medical freight, operational continuity for companies in crisis, or expatriate evacuations. Its JetCard division also offers prepaid 25-hour cards on light, midsize, and large fleets, with all-inclusive prices guaranteed at the time of booking and availability within 4 hours. Air Partner is a founding member of the EBAA (European Business Aviation Association).
Air Partner also manages a commercial airline charter (ACMI) and freight business, giving it access to aircraft and slots that purely private brokers cannot obtain. During peak demand periods — Cannes, Formula 1 Monaco, World Cup — Air Partner can position several aircraft simultaneously thanks to its privileged relationships with operators. With offices in London, Frankfurt, Dubai, and New York, its geographical coverage is among the most comprehensive in the sector.

Frequently asked questions about Air Partner
Air Partner is a British private jet broker founded in 1961, specialising in private charter, group flights, and complex aviation solutions. It acts as an intermediary between the client and the certified operators in its network of 8,000 aircraft across 150 countries. For each request, Air Partner selects the aircraft best suited to the budget, destination, and number of passengers, negotiates the rate, and manages all logistics. Its JetCard also enables recurring bookings at a guaranteed rate.
Yes — this is one of Air Partner's historical specialities. The company can organise flights for groups of 8 to 400 people on jets, turboprops, or VIP airliners. It has managed world tours for major music stars, entire sports team transfers (Champions League, F1), and corporate evacuations. For groups of 20 to 80 people, Air Partner often proposes Embraer ERJ or Boeing BBJ aircraft, which are more cost-effective than a fleet of several private jets.
The Air Partner JetCard is a prepaid 25-hour flight card on light, midsize, or large aircraft. The hourly rate is guaranteed at subscription, protecting the client from spot market price fluctuations. Availability is guaranteed within 4 hours throughout Europe. Hours are valid for 24 months and can be used on any route. It is an intermediate solution between spot flying (cheaper but not guaranteed) and fractional ownership (more expensive but most flexible).
Yes. Air Partner has a specialist division in airborne medical evacuations (medevac) and humanitarian flights. The company can equip private jets with a medical configuration including a stretcher, monitors, and resuscitation equipment within a few hours. It works with Europe's most significant repatriation insurance companies. Its ARGUS Platinum certification and global network allow it to intervene in remote or hard-to-reach areas.
Air Partner rates depend on the aircraft category and the route. For a light jet on Paris–London, expect €5,000 to €7,000. A midsize on Paris–Ibiza costs €9,000–12,000. A heavy jet on Paris–New York is negotiated between €55,000 and €85,000. As a broker, Air Partner's rates are competitive compared to direct operators, with the added benefit of multi-aircraft selection. The JetCard guarantees a fixed hourly rate from the time of subscription.
Air Partner and LunaJets are both private jet brokers, but their positioning differs. LunaJets is a digital platform founded in 2007, specialising in the premium European market with a real-time comparison interface. Air Partner is a historic broker (1961) with strong expertise in complex flights: groups, medevac, diplomatic, and cargo. Air Partner is preferred for atypical requests (a group of 50, an emergency evacuation), LunaJets for price optimisation on standard flights.
