VistaJet

VistaJet offers flight-hour access programmes on its 360-aircraft Bombardier fleet without the client owning any aircraft. The Direct Programme (minimum 50 hours per year) provides access to Challenger 350 and Global 5500, while the Global Programme (100 hours+) covers the entire worldwide fleet including Global 7500s. A fixed monthly fee includes flight hours, crew, catering and all operational costs. Unused hours can be carried over for 12 months.

VistaJet operates exclusively Bombardier aircraft to guarantee a standardised experience. In Europe, the fleet includes Challenger 350s (super-midsize, 10 pax, perfect for Paris-Moscow or London-Nice), Global 5500s (ultra-long-range, 16 pax, for Europe-Middle East or transcontinental routes) and Global 7500s (the flagship, 19 pax, for non-stop flights to Asia or the Americas). Every aircraft wears VistaJet's iconic silver and red livery.

VistaJet is particularly strong on intercontinental flights thanks to its Global 5500 and Global 7500 fleet, capable of linking Paris to Dubai (5,250 km), London to Mumbai (7,180 km) or Geneva to New York (6,330 km) non-stop. Its presence in 187 countries with local teams in Dubai, Hong Kong, New York and Moscow allows fast aircraft positioning on every continent. It is the operator of choice for business travellers who make 3 to 4 intercontinental trips per month.

The VistaJet Direct Programme starts at around €170,000 for 50 annual hours on a Challenger 350, i.e. €3,400/hour all inclusive. The Global Programme for 100 hours on a Global 5500 or 7500 represents an investment of €800,000 to €1,200,000 per year depending on the chosen fleet. These rates include absolutely everything — fuel, crew, insurance, gourmet catering, Wi-Fi and ground transfers — with no billing surprises.

Yes — VistaJet offers on-demand flights for travellers who do not wish to commit to an annual programme. These flights are available subject to fleet availability, with an on-demand hourly rate typically 20 to 30% higher than the programmes. For occasional trips, a private jet broker such as LunaJets or AeroAffaires often offers more pricing flexibility, but without VistaJet's standardisation and service guarantee.

VistaJet guarantees a 100% identical experience on every flight: the same procedures, the same crew trained to the same standards, the same catering, the same Wi-Fi. A traditional private jet broker offers a different operator on each flight, with inevitable variations in quality. For travellers logging 50 hours+ per year who value predictability and consistency above all, VistaJet is unmatched. Below 25 hours, a broker is generally more economical.
