Private Plane Charter — FAQ

Straight answers on price, booking, and what's included.

How much does it cost to charter a private plane?

Private plane charter costs from about $2,500 per hour for a turboprop to over $20,000 per hour for an ultra-long-range jet. A typical one-way domestic trip on a light jet runs $8,000 – $18,000; a midsize coast-to-coast trip is $32,000 – $52,000.

How far in advance should I book a private plane charter?

For on-demand charter, 24 – 72 hours of lead time is typical, and we can position aircraft in as little as 4 hours for same-day trips. Peak days (holidays, F1, Super Bowl) benefit from 2 – 4 weeks of notice.

What's included in a private plane charter quote?

A DesJets quote is all-in — aircraft, fuel, crew, landing and handling fees, and taxes. Optional extras like catering, ground transport and de-icing are quoted separately and confirmed before departure.

Can I charter a private plane one-way?

Yes. One-way private plane charter is standard — pricing includes the repositioning of the aircraft. Empty-leg flights are the cheapest one-way option when your route matches an existing movement.

Are your operators safety-certified?

Every operator on the DesJets marketplace is audited to ARGUS, Wyvern or IS-BAO standards. We verify insurance, crew currency and aircraft maintenance records before each flight.
