Published membership pricing
flyExclusive cost: what the published Jet Club deposit covers
flyExclusive cost starts with a published Jet Club deposit: $100,000 for Jet Club and $200,000 for Jet Club Plus. In its March 12, 2026 announcement, flyExclusive listed pre-owned Citation XLS+ shares from $695,000, depending on share size. Both programs are then priced daily plus hourly. The Jet Club rates come in a proposal, and the fractional rates are set by the purchase agreement.
The published deposit is not the client’s final cost per hour. Under daily-plus-hourly pricing, the effective cost depends on how many separate days the client’s hours fall on, the rates in the proposal, the access terms and the membership or purchase agreement. We review flyExclusive’s proposal and agreement against competing programs using the same flight history and assumptions.

flyExclusive’s published Jet Club pricing
Current Jet Club page and April 16, 2026 launch release checked October 14, 2026. Dollar amounts are prepaid U.S. dollar flight funds, not fees or annual flying costs; every deposited dollar goes toward flying. Daily and hourly charges consume the funds. Published inclusions apply to Jet Club quotes, not automatically to fractional ownership.

Cost interpretation
How travel days affect daily-plus-hourly pricing
Under a daily-plus-hourly structure, one charge is triggered by a travel day and the other by flight time. The same hours flown across more separate days therefore produce a larger bill at the same rates.
A client who flies long trips, or several legs on the same day, spreads each daily charge across more flight time. A client who makes frequent single short hops on separate days pays the daily charge more often for the same hours.
Membership terms
Jet Club 2026 fees and tax-inclusive quotes
flyExclusive states that the redesigned Jet Club membership is evergreen, with no monthly membership fee, no fuel surcharge, no taxi time billing and no late-night or regional surcharges. Federal Excise Tax is included in all quoted rates.
A quote stated before tax will appear lower than the same quote with tax included. Quotes need to use the same tax basis for a fair comparison. Membership and fractional flying are not necessarily taxed the same way, so Jet Club’s tax-inclusive pricing does not establish how tax applies to flyExclusive’s fractional program.
Rate protection
Jet Club’s 24-month rate lock, expiry and refund terms
Jet Club member flying rates are locked for 24 months from the time of deposit. The current Jet Club page says funds never expire and every dollar goes toward flying. It does not publish refund rights for the current offer. The 2025 Form 10-K describes non-refundable deposits under earlier membership terms that also carried a monthly fee, so that disclosure does not establish the redesigned offer’s refund treatment.
The value of the lock depends on when the client flies relative to the deposit date and on the rates that apply when the lock ends. The membership agreement governs how rates are handled after the 24 months.
Operator structure
Jet Club access is built around the flyExclusive fleet
flyExclusive lists the Citation CJ3+ and Citation Excel/XLS for Jet Club in its light and midsize category and the Challenger 350 in super-midsize. Its service is built around its own fleet, but its published terms also allow approved vendor air carriers. The operating carrier holds operational control of the flight.
A broker-sourced card can provide access across several carriers and aircraft types. In a fleet-based program, availability and substitution terms still affect which aircraft operates a particular trip.
The fractional program
flyExclusive fractional ownership cost
The flyExclusive fractional program offers shares in the Citation CJ3+, Citation XLS+ and Bombardier Challenger 350 in four sizes: 50 hours a year (a 6.25% share), 75 hours (9.375%), 100 hours (12.5%) and 200 or more (25%). Further hours come in 25-hour increments. There is no monthly management fee, and the owner pays daily and hourly rates when flying, set by the purchase agreement.
The program includes both new deliveries and pre-owned aircraft. Its March 12, 2026 announcement listed pre-owned XLS+ shares from $695,000, depending on share size; that announcement is not a current proposal. Repurchase value and deductions follow the agreement, as explained in selling a fractional share.
A pre-owned aircraft’s purchase price and eventual resale value reflect its condition, maintenance status and market demand as well as its age. Its eventual resale proceeds can therefore differ from those of a new delivery.
A program without a monthly fee has fewer recurring operating charges during periods of little flying, although acquisition capital stays committed. Total cost still depends on the daily and hourly rates, aircraft category and agreement.
Travel pattern
Who Jet Club and the fractional program suit
flyExclusive positions Jet Club for flyers at or under 50 hours a year and the fractional program for those above it. Jet Club membership can suit a client who flies periodically and prefers an established access arrangement centered on one fleet. The fractional program can suit a client whose hours justify committing acquisition capital to an aircraft interest across a five-year term.
Those annual-hour ranges are a starting point. Under daily-plus-hourly pricing, the number of separate travel days also affects cost, along with aircraft category, trip length and routing. Access and flexibility must suit the client’s travel schedule as well.
What we do
We compare flyExclusive costs for the client’s travel schedule
We compare flyExclusive’s daily and hourly charges with the relevant alternatives for the client’s flying. The review covers cost and access under the membership or purchase agreement, with tax treatment kept consistent across the comparison.
For a fractional buyer, expected utilization and the aircraft’s value at exit are central to the decision. We assess whether the capital commitment and use-based charges fit the client’s travel and holding period.
We compare flyExclusive’s daily and hourly charges with alternatives for your travel. For a fractional purchase, the review also considers the capital commitment, expected use and value at exit.
