Charter by the trip.
No membership, no deposit, no commitment. You tell us the mission; we come back with vetted aircraft, named operators, and an all-in price you can hold us to.
What is on-demand jet charter?
On-demand jet charter is private aircraft hire priced trip by trip, with no membership, deposit, or hourly commitment. You pay only for the flights you book. Velox names the operator, the aircraft, and one all-in price before you confirm — usually within an hour of the request.
One request, a shortlist you can actually compare.
Most requests come back as a wall of numbers with no way to tell them apart. Ours come back as a shortlist: three or so aircraft, each with the operator named, the tail identified, the safety rating attached, and one price that includes everything.
If the difference between two options is $4,000, we tell you what the $4,000 buys — a newer cabin, a better crew pairing, a direct leg instead of a fuel stop. If it buys nothing, we say that too.
You are never charged to receive a quote, and nothing is booked until you say so in writing.
From request to wheels up.
Same process whether you are flying Naples to Nassau or Miami to Geneva.
Route, dates, passenger count, and anything that matters — pets, skis, a 6am arrival, a client on board.
We search vetted operators for the right aircraft on that date and run our safety checks on each tail and crew.
One all-in price per option. Sign, fund, and the trip is contracted with the operator.
Catering, ground, permits, and changes handled by your advisor — reachable 24/7, before and during the trip.
All-in means all in.
The number we quote is the number you pay, unless you change the trip. Everything below is priced into the quote before you see it.
Flight time, crew duty, and crew expenses for the itinerary as quoted.
Fuel, fuel variability within normal bands, and operator surcharges are quoted up front, not added later.
Airport, FBO handling, ramp, and parking fees along the routing as planned.
Federal excise tax, segment fees, and international fees where applicable.
Coffee, water, and a light standard selection. Bespoke catering is quoted separately at cost.
Itinerary changes, extended waits, and de-icing are passed through at operator cost with the invoice attached.
On-demand charter, answered.
How far in advance should I book? +
Most domestic trips can be arranged with 24 to 48 hours’ notice, and shorter is often possible. Peak weekends, holidays, and large-cabin international trips reward more lead time — the earlier you ask, the better the aircraft you can hold.
Do I pay before the flight? +
Yes. Charter is funded before departure once the contract is signed. Wire, ACH, and card are accepted; card payments carry the processing fee charged by the operator.
Can I cancel? +
Cancellation terms are set by the operating carrier and are stated in the contract before you sign — they vary by aircraft and how close to departure you cancel. We flag the terms alongside the price so it is never a surprise.
What if the aircraft goes technical? +
Your advisor sources a recovery aircraft and rebooks the trip. Because we work across operators rather than one fleet, we are not limited to what a single company happens to have available.
Is on-demand the right choice for me? +
If you fly a handful of trips a year on flexible dates, yes. If you fly regularly, on short notice, or through peak periods, Velox Reserve locks your rate and guarantees availability — we will tell you honestly which one fits.
Not sure this is the right structure?
Three ways to fly with us. Same aircraft, same vetting — the difference is how you buy.
