    The Power of a Fleet

    Your Aircraft. Our Buying Power.

    When you join Sky Travel's managed fleet, your aircraft isn't managed in isolation — it benefits from the collective scale of our entire operation.

    Discounted Parts

    All Tiers

    Fleet-wide purchasing power means lower prices on OEM and aftermarket parts — savings passed directly to you.

    Fleet Insurance Rates

    Tier II & III

    Your aircraft joins our fleet policy, dramatically reducing hull and liability premiums compared to individual owner coverage.

    Preferred Fuel & FBO Pricing

    Tier II & III

    Volume fuel contracts and negotiated FBO rates across the country — costs that individual owners simply can't access alone.

    Charter Revenue Program

    Turn Your Aircraft Into
    a Revenue Asset

    As a managed client, you have the option to place your aircraft on our FAA Part 135 charter certificate (AOC 57SA4600). When you're not flying, your aircraft generates charter revenue — offsetting fixed costs like hangar, insurance, crew, and maintenance.

    Some owners reduce their annual operating costs by 40–60%. Others turn a net profit. Either way, your aircraft works for you even when you're not on board.

    You stay in full control — set blackout dates, approve trip types, and define minimum notice periods. We handle the rest: marketing, sales, crew dispatch, and billing.

    How It Works

    • 01

      Place on Certificate

      Your aircraft is added to our Part 135 certificate with zero upfront cost.

    • 02

      Set Your Terms

      Define availability windows, blackout dates, and trip preferences.

    • 03

      We Operate & Market

      Our team handles all charter sales, dispatch, and crew coordination.

    • 04

      You Earn Revenue

      Charter proceeds are deposited directly — transparent reporting via your Client Portal.

    • 05

      Offset or Profit

      Apply earnings against fixed costs, or pocket the difference. Your choice.

    How Billing Works

    The Operating Fund Model

    All Sky Travel management programs operate on an operating fund model. Rather than paying dozens of vendors individually, you fund a single operating account managed by our team. Every expense — fuel, maintenance, hangar, insurance, crew, catering — flows through this fund with full transparency.

    During onboarding, we estimate your monthly operating costs based on your aircraft type, anticipated usage, and selected services. This estimate determines the initial operating fund deposit included in your tailored proposal.

    You'll always have full visibility into fund balances and expenditures through your Client Portal — no surprises, no mark-ups, complete accountability.

    What It Covers

    • Fuel & landing fees
    • Scheduled & unscheduled maintenance
    • Hangar rent & facility fees
    • Insurance premiums
    • Crew payroll & training (Tier III)
    • Catering & ground transport
    • International permits & handling
    • Management fee

    03
