Book private jets through a jet reservation service. Available through most airports in the United States and abroad, these companies allow you to log into their system, choose a day, time and aircraft and make your reservations. A leader in this industry is Air Charter; try out their link in the Resources section below.
Rent a private jet from a private owners. Owners who may not be able to use their jet often may allow the pilot to rent the plane's service out on an hourly basis. Renting from these private owners is more difficult since there are limited numbers of them available in some areas. Contact your local airport to find private owners.
Fly your own jet by renting just the jet itself, not a pilot. With your pilot's license and registration within the airport, you can book a jet to use through local companies. Find these companies locally or by contacting your airport for more information.
Name your price, and book your jet through an online auction site. Much like other travel booking websites, companies like One Sky allow you to log into their service, pick the trip type you would like, the departure date, the origin city and the destination from their list of available flights. Within a few minutes, you can see what's available to choose from.
Compare private jet companies before your purchase. Look at their adherence to safety standards, their capital outlay requirements, the number of jets they have available, the make and model of each, and the cost. Consider empty-leg service as well for those looking for one-way trips at discounted rates.
