VistaJet

VistaJet is a private jet operator with a listed London office on Charles Street in Mayfair. It flies a global fleet of business jets in a distinctive silver and red livery, and sells flight time by the hour rather than through aircraft ownership.

There are no joining fees, and customers pay only for the hours they need. The VJ25 membership is aimed at people who fly less often, starting from 25 flight hours a year. The Program is a subscription membership that guarantees access to the whole fleet. The Corporate option offers business jet solutions for companies and executives. One-off charter is also available, priced at market rates that start from $11,000 an hour.

VistaJet pilots fly only one aircraft type each, so that they know it well. On board, cabin hosts look after passengers, and the dining service draws on more than 7,000 suppliers worldwide, from producers to private chefs and Michelin-starred restaurants, with seasonal menus.

For families, the Adventures in the Sky programme runs themed activities for children on board, such as an Alice in Wonderland experience. The VistaPet programme covers travel with pets, and every cabin host is trained in pet first aid and CPR.

Flights can be requested through the website’s planning form, after which the team gets in touch.
