Load any preset straight into the modeler above. Each scenario shows the all-in planning total and the cost-per-passenger break point.
TEB → BED · return same day
VNY → ASE · 2 nights on the ground
OPF → NAS → SBH · one-way island hop
A private charter is fixed-cost — fill more seats and the per-passenger number drops fast. Use this view to find the cabin class and passenger count where charter beats first-class commercial for your group.
Outcome quotes attributed by role only — no invented names, no theater. Just the metrics our clients feel.
"The wait-time slider settled a debate we'd had for years — when to book two one-ways vs a round trip. We re-baselined our whole travel policy off the cost-per-person view."
"Three firm quotes against the exact trip we modeled, side by side. The apples-to-apples handling row was the part none of the other brokers gave us."
"24/7 ops answered in under five minutes at 2 a.m. for an Asia repatriation. The planning estimate was within 6% of the final invoice."
Your calculator output becomes the trip spec we shop to FAA-licensed Part 135 operators. You receive up to three firm options against the same parameters — aircraft, route, dates, pax — and choose.
We'll match your modeled trip to operators and reply within minutes.
Five questions that explain the math behind the planning total.
Modeling When you keep the aircraft and crew on the ground between legs, the operator bills standby time at a reduced hourly rate that covers crew duty time, ramp or hangar parking, APU use, and the aircraft being unavailable for other charters.
The modeler multiplies your wait hours by a per-class wait rate (roughly 15–18% of the flight-hour rate). Same-day round-trips usually bill wait time; multi-day trips usually bill a flat overnight fee instead.
Compare For most short and medium hauls, a round-trip on the same aircraft with wait time on the ground is cheaper than two separate one-way legs. That's because one-way pricing has to account for the operator repositioning the aircraft or flying it home empty.
The OW vs RT compare view in the modeler shows both side by side. The note flags the crossover when two one-ways beat the round-trip — most commonly on longer overnights.
Overnight Almost always. An overnight triggers a flat per-night fee covering crew hotel, hangar or ramp parking, and aircraft availability for the return leg.
For trips of two or more nights, it can sometimes become cheaper to book two one-way legs instead of holding the aircraft — the compare view flags this when the round-trip path exceeds two one-way legs.
International International legs add oceanic or overflight handling, customs and immigration fees, landing permits, and longer sectors that often require a heavy or ultra-long-range jet.
The modeler scales the hourly rate by aircraft class and lets you set flight hours that reflect a great-circle route — e.g. TEB to London Biggin Hill (EGBJ) on an Ultra long-range is roughly 6.5 hours; HOU to EGBJ on a Global 6000 is roughly 10 hours. Final firm quotes include permits, handling, and international segment fees.
