The Newest Private Jet Disruptor is Here and This Company Allows You to Finance Your Jet Card

With a 10-Hour Jet Card, flexible payment options, and concierge-level service, BC Flight is making it easier to fly private.

The last several years have seen a steady rise in private aviation as business and personal use of private jets continues to increase. The chaos of Covid-19, various airport challenges, flight delays and flight cancellations have contributed to an increase in private jet travel – and reports indicate the trend will continue. Further increasing demand are first-class travelers who have grown weary of long lines and the decline of the first-class experience, and who are now turning to private jet options for some travel.

BC Flight is transforming private aviation with unique offerings that make private jet travel available to a much wider audience through their financed jet card and low commitment jet card options. These two offerings individually are a major departure from standard industry practice. But with both of these available to their clients, BC Flight has opened private jet travel to more individuals who desire the next level of air travel.

The 10-hour jet card, one of the lowest private jet card options in private aviation, is an entry level card which allows clients to fly private without a major financial commitment. The financing program allows the use of 10-hour and 25-hour jet cards while making payments for 27-months and 24-months respectively. Finally, they round out their service with the “Flex Feature”, which allows clients the ability to downgrade in certain scenarios to a Very Light Jet (VLJ) or Turboprop at a reduced rate.

In 2023, they launched a 10-Hour Jet Card, one of the only options of its kind in the industry. Contrary to other charter companies whose entry-level memberships start at 25 hours or a whopping $250,000 initial deposit requirement, BC Flight is thrilled to offer clients their 10-hour card. For individuals looking to fly privately for an annual luxury vacation or for those in need of a return flight for personal or business reasons – when the commercial airline schedule won’t accommodate them – a 10-Hour Jet Card is the perfect solution. Since ease of doing business and a true white-glove experience is BC Flight’s overall philosophy, they offer the 10-hour card with the intent of earning repeat clients by providing overall excellent service. Add to that the fact that the 10-Hour Jet Card is eligible for financing, and this is a rare offering.

BC Flight’s “Fly Now, Pay Later” program is truly unparallelled. This first-of-its-kind jet card financing program allows individuals and businesses with qualified credit to begin flying immediately after they complete the jet card agreement and make a down payment. There are virtually no companies that offer a finance program that allows customers to fly before paying off the card. The 10-hour card requires only $9,500 down and a monthly payment of $1,962 over 27 months. Clients receive a full block of 10 hours on a light jet, and this covers everything required for a typical flight except federal excise tax (when applicable). This is an ideal solution for clients who are interested in trying BC Flight or for new flyers who want to carefully enter the private jet world.

It’s important to note BC Flight still offers traditional jet card levels, including 25-hour, 50-hour, and 100-hour jet cards, with the 10-hour and 25-hour cards eligible for the “Fly Now, Pay Later” option.

Customer satisfaction is at the core of their company mission, and the recently-introduced Flex Feature developed as a solution to client requests.  This allows jet card members to downgrade to a qualified VLJ or Turboprop and save up to 55% off each hour, depending on the jet card size. For shorter trips or few passengers, it’s arguably one of the most cost-effective, green and fuel-efficient options available for private travel. Very light jets, like the Citation Mustang or HondaJet and the Turboprop King Air C90-GTx continue to be in high demand for charter, making BC Flight’s Flex Feature an exclusive program for members.

Outstanding customer service is one of the voids in the private jet industry, which BC Flight aimed to fill from the outset. Many companies use the white glove service adage without a serious commitment to maintaining said level of service. The company continues to earn clients’ trust by avoiding common frustrations like hidden and surprise charges. They also steer clear of the unfortunately common occurrence of inflated exorbitant fees for support services like in-flight catering and rental cars. There are no annual membership or initiation fees, no repositioning fees, and no blackout dates. BC Flight understands clients want stress-free flying from start to finish.

CEO and Founder, Thane Namy, is focused on providing this true white glove experience to clients. “Having flown privately over the years, I felt the overall flight experience could be elevated substantially without dramatic cost increases to the client,” says Namy. “Luxury travel goes beyond the jet”, he continued. “While many of our competitors are reducing concierge-level services, we’re not only providing a high level of service but including special touches individual to each client – all of which are inclusive in our competitive yet sustainable rates.” Namy continued, “We are focused on building long-term relationships, which in turn fosters an enjoyable experience for our clients and staff, alike.”

BC Flight’s dedicated client support team works hard to deliver an effortless and relaxing trip to each client. Dedicated staff are readily available to communicate with the client through email, text or over the phone to quickly make arrangements, eliminating the stress of setting up flights and travelling. Upon boarding, customers unwind within minutes thanks to complimentary refreshments like chilled champagne, a custom charcuterie board, and a specially-curated travel wellness kit.

In an effort to continue the company’s momentum, what’s next? Building a fleet, of course. Having cultivated its business as an air charter broker since inception, BC Flight has shifted to owning more of the customer experience by recently acquiring a Cessna Citation medium jet.

“We are very excited to reach this company milestone,” says CEO Thane Namy. “Building a fleet has been one of BC Flight’s goals since the business was founded, and this will be the first of several aircraft we purchase and put into service.” Namy continues, “the Citation 650 flying at Mach 0.83 is an impressive balance between high performance, comfort, and cost, which is perfectly positioned to meet our customers’ needs.”
