Delta Private Jets launches empty leg membership program
Just saw Delta Private Jets launched an empty leg membership program. It's $8,600 for year one and $6,000 per year after that. You get as many empty legs as you can use for free. You also get the entire aircraft - so seems like an advantage over JetSmarter. DPJ says they had over 6,300 empty legs last year. I wonder how that compares to the number of empties JS offered?
"If you are wondering what were the busiest airports for empties, Davis lists off Teterboro, White Plains, Charleston, Palm Beach, Atlanta, Naples, Washington Dulles, Boca Raton, Jacksonville, Salt Lake City and Cincinnati." There are also guaranteed one-way charter rates on a pay as you go basis. https://privatejetcardcomparisons.co...-availability/ |
operator owned by delta airlines right?
total number of empty legs is one thing, are all owners participating? light jets = citation and nextant can you use DPJ card to pay membership fee? $50K/yr (incl DL commercial) gets DL diamond. |
Any way to view current offerings without membership?

They now have a 90-day empty leg history on their web page that users can search. This can be accessed with a demo account, membership is not required.

This has to be sarcasm right? This is a bargain for access to the entire jet on empty legs $9,000 is a whole lot to pay for nothing. |

Sure, if you can get one. There are hardly any flights from or to California. The website shows about a dozen flights originating from SF/Oakland in the past 90 days, and about 40 from LAX/BUR/VNY, with many of those local re-positioning flights like from LAX to Santa Ana.

this. I haven’t seen any good flights really posted, with a lot in my area being super short or postioning. The lack of any recovery what so ever on cancellations makes it very hard as at that point you’re past hotel and such cancellation policies Delta Private Jets from what I understand does not own the aircraft in their fleet but manages the aircraft and sells charters for their individual owners. I have reached out to Delta directly for charter requests but found their pricing to be high, or them looking to just sell a jet card. I even chartered their Citation X (N2AZ) on a trip to Scottsdale last year through a broker. That Citation was in much nicer shape and any XO jet planes that I've flown on. Would love to see what else their fleet has to offer @ a lower cost than they currently command. |

XO is refurbishing their planes - not sure how far along -
Any idea what is happening to all of the 800XP that travel management no longer offers? Selling in bulk to another operator? aren't they partnered with XO, Maybe them? |
