Which of these show a dated price on this page?
3 of the 9 cards show a published price, with its currency as the company writes it. Ask every company for a written quote with your dates, aircraft and what it includes.
Who to contact first
Start with the 4 companies on this page that show prices online and publish their cancellation terms, then add any other card that fits your route and dates.
What to ask each one to set out in writing:
- The total price in writing, line by line: the aircraft, fuel, crew, landing and handling fees, taxes (VAT or US Federal Excise Tax), de-icing and catering. Then which of these can change after you book.
- The operator's name, the aircraft's tail number, its operating certificate and any safety audit the operator holds (ARGUS, Wyvern or IS-BAO).
- How your money is held before the flight, the deposit and when the balance is due.
- The cancellation terms and what happens if the aircraft goes unserviceable or an empty leg is cancelled.
Empty-leg apps: the questions people ask
What should I ask a private jet company before booking?
The total price line by line and what can change it; the operator's name, the aircraft's tail number and its operating certificate; any safety audit it holds; how your money is held; the deposit and the cancellation terms.
Can I book with these companies directly?
Yes. Each card links the company's own website or enquiry page; ask for a written quote that lists what the price includes and the cancellation terms.
Do these companies all sell the same thing?
No. Some arrange charter on other operators' aircraft, some fly their own fleet, some sell jet cards, memberships, fractional shares, empty legs or single seats. Each card says what the company sells, so compare the cards before you ask for quotes.
Who actually flies the aircraft when I book through a broker?
An operator that holds its own operating certificate (FAA Part 135 in the United States, an air operator certificate in Europe and the UK). Ask the company for the operator's name and certificate before you pay.
Which of these have the most Google reviews?
Silverhawk Aviation, P3 Jets and Airble, in that order. A count says how many people reviewed a company, not whether it fits your trip; each card gives the rating and count, read 10 November 2026.
Which of these publish their cancellation terms?
4 of the 9: Airble, Elevate Jet, P3 Jets and Silverhawk Aviation. Ask each for the full terms in writing before you pay a deposit.
Which of these publish their licences or memberships?
7 of the 9: Airble, Carrington Jets, Elevate Jet, Luxaviation, P3 Jets, Silverhawk Aviation and Vaunt. Check each with the issuer before you book.
Where can I check these facts myself?
Each card links the pages of the company's own website its lines were read from, with the date they were read.
How were these companies chosen?
Each one is in the Uncompromised Travel private jet charter table, built from the private jet companies ChatGPT names most often. On its own website it has its own app that lists or books empty legs. A company is on the page because its published facts fit the question, never because it paid.
Is any company on this page paying to be here?
No. No company on this page is a partner of Uncompromised Travel; none paid to be on it.
