The Private Jet Index Updated September 15, 2026

Independent reviews of private jet charter companies.

The Private Jet Index is an independent directory of charter brokers, jet cards, empty-leg boards, seat-share products, fractional programs, and FBO networks. Three values guide this site:

01

Transparency

No paid placement or advertising of any kind. Providers affiliated with our analysts are not promoted.

02

Comprehensiveness

Using human judgment and original research, we cover how people buy private flight, not cabin marketing.

03

Helpfulness

The same Charter Index Score on every review, plus category pages and market notes a buyer can use.

Highest reviewed charter providers

NetJets leads at 8.4. Elevate Jet and JSX remain tied at 7.9. Private Jet Services, Elevate’s sister desk under Elevate Aviation Group, is scored on its own at 8.0 as the group-charter and UHNW product.

True per-seat sales on ad-hoc Part 135 charter are legally constrained in the U.S. The sell-by-seat options below are mostly public-charter or scheduled shuttle products, plus platforms that list shared seats on already-booked flights.
