Unlike chartering, dry leasing gives you more control and consistency. If you’re considering dry leasing one of our jets, here’s a simple guide to what it is and how it differs from chartering with another company.
What is a Jet Dry Lease?
A jet dry lease is like renting a car without a driver or fuel. You lease one of our jets for months or years, but you’re responsible for arranging pilots, maintenance and complying with aviation regulations.
What You Get with a Dry Lease from PR Jets:
- Exclusive Use: The jet is yours to use whenever you want, giving you full control over your schedule.
- Fixed Costs: You pay a consistent monthly fee directly to the aircraft owner for the jet, plus your own costs for fuel, crew, and upkeep. This can save money if you fly often (e.g., 200+ hours a year).
- Your Team, Your Way: You hire and manage the pilots and crew, so you can customize your flying experience.
How is Dry Leasing Different from Chartering?
Chartering, offered by other companies, is like booking a private jet for a single trip. The charter company handles everything—plane, crew, maintenance, and planning—so you just show up and fly. PR Jets focuses solely on dry leasing, not chartering.
Key Differences:
- Dry Lease with PR Jets: You get exclusive use of one of our jets. You manage the crew, maintenance, and operations, which means more responsibility but also more control. It’s perfect for frequent flyers who want the same jet every time and lower costs over time.
- Chartering with Another Company: You pay per trip, and the charter company takes care of everything. You might get a different jet each time, and it’s pricier per hour, but there’s no long-term commitment or management involved. It’s ideal for occasional travelers.
Why Dry Lease with PR Jets?
Choose a dry lease if you fly often and want a dedicated jet with full control over its operations, without the expense of ownership. It’s a cost-effective way to have your own jet experience tailored to your needs.
What It Means to Dry Lease from PR Jets
When you dry lease from PR Jets, you get one of our jets for your exclusive use. You’ll hire pilots, arrange maintenance, and follow regulations, giving you the freedom to fly on your terms. Unlike chartering, where another company manages everything and provides a different jet each trip, our dry lease offers a consistent aircraft and savings for frequent flyers.
