Charter a jet for $4...!!!! (JetSuite)

[jgheggie]

Ok, so there's a few catches...but apparently you can charter a jet this 4th of July for $4. That's right, four dollars! Watched it on the local news this morning so I looked it up. Find your own way back.....lol

-----------------------------------

JetSuite is offering travelers quite the deal this coming July 4, and it’s a much better deal than you’ll see the rest of the year, according to Robb Reports.

Travelers can purchase tickets on July 3 only, for travel on July 4.

That’s the catch though, you can only travel on July 4 at the $4 dollar rate.

If you’re interested, you can sign up here to join their SuiteDeal Wishlist and that will notify you if there are deals at your desired airport.

Normally, JetSuite airfare is $536 dollars per plane, but the one-day-only Independence Day deal will only cost just $4 dollars per plane, not per person.

There are two options of planes, one holds four passengers and one holds six.

It is only for one-way, empty-leg flights from United States, Mexico and the Caribbean.

Meh, I'll stick with my Gulfstream at $11,490 an hour.

imagine the other things in this world you could rent for $11,490 per hour.

I'm like 99% sure that I've flown repo legs that you could have had for a friendly smile and whatever was in your pockets. But here's to monetizing it!

Could be illegal as they are publishing a schedule.

If I rent something for $11,490 per hour, it had better be life changing, no matter what it is. I will say this...there ain't nothing on a woman worth that much.

Rent my student loans for a day....

Good karma will pay you back....what's better than that?

They sell legs out of the Bay Area pretty often, so here's hoping. Thanks for the heads up.

 

[BEEF SUPREME]

Oh! Oh! Oh! I'll charter my jet for 3 DOLLARS!!! And I'll throw in our pilots as slaves for the weekend. You can do whatever you want with them. Housecleaning, toxic waste removal, manual labor, you name it. They are very willing and never say no. They don't even know what no means! Just say, 'we are getting a new jet soon' and they will believe it!

I tend to "rent" high end, but that's out of my price range.

Pretty sure they're just posting their empty repositioning legs, which is quite a bit different than scheduled service. I worked for JS for a long time. Good people, good company.

"According to a recent FAA legal interpretation, these flights may in fact meet the definition of a "schedule" and therefore must be conducted under Part 121 if a turbojet-powered aircraft is used. "

Good thing they're hair dryer powered and not turbo-jet powered.

Another charter company without their own hangars and mechanics. Looks good on paper.

Isn't this where that Flying magazine Doctor Dick Karl works?

Ever been to Magic City? Interesting article in GQ this month about that place.

The ex-surgeon guy, owns his own Cheyenne. He retired medicine and now works at (I'm pretty sure) jetSuite. I like his column, he usually has good stuff. S Weigel is also hitting it out of the park, impressed by that guy.

The only one that is "ugh" and nails-on-chalkboard would be Les Abend's column.
