History
[edit]1990's and 2000's
[edit]Founded in 1999, Jetfly initially operated as an owner club using Socata TBM 700 aircraft.[1] In 2004, the company received its first Pilatus PC-12 and launched a fractional ownership programme for this aircraft. In 2009, Jetfly took delivery of its first Pilatus PC-12 NG. [2]
2010's
[edit]In 2010, Jetfly's ownership evolved: the company's founders sold their stake to a new group of investors headed by Cédric Lescop and Maxime Bouchard[3]. In 2012 Jetfly decided to exclusively concentrate on the Pilatus PC-12, expanding its fleet to 15 aircraft. In 2014, Jetfly acquired a Pilatus-authorized maintenance center in Bournemouth, becoming an approved provider of maintenance services for the Pilatus PC-12.[4]
In 2018, the company officially launched its fractional ownership programme for the Pilatus PC-24, marked by the delivery of its first aircraft[5][6].
In 2019, Jetfly acquired Fly7, a company based in Lausanne that manages privately owned aircraft[7]. Additionally, Jetfly established a second maintenance center in Zweibrücken (Jetfly Technik), positioning itself as the second-largest Pilatus maintenance facility in Europe[8][9].
2020's
[edit]In 2020, Jetfly received the first PC-12 training simulator in Europe, operated by Fly7 Training in Lausanne[10].
In 2021, the Jetfly Fractional Ownership programme reaches 350 aircraft owners in all Europe, the UK and Switzerland[11].
In 2022, following Brexit, Jetfly established Jetfly UK to manage flight operations within the United Kingdom[12].
In 2023, Jetfly's fleet grews to 35 aircraft. Combined with Fly7, the group oversaw a total of 65 Pilatus aircraft, making it the operator of the largest Pilatus fleet in the world in 2023[13].
The following year, the company introduced the Cirrus Vision SF50 with the delivery of 3 aircraft[14]
Business model
[edit]Jetfly sells shares of aircraft. The size of a share corresponds to the owner’s in-flight needs. The commitment with Jetfly is formalized through a purchase and management contract.
Once an owner gets a share, he benefits guaranteed access to the aircraft with 18 to 48 hours' notice, anywhere in Europe and 24/7 service availability. If the owner's aircraft is unavailable for some reason, a comparable or larger aircraft will be provided instead.
