24/7 access answered right away never a call center
The Jet Configurator
Tell us where you are going and how many are traveling. You will get the right aircraft category, a realistic flight time, and the honest reasoning behind both — in about ten seconds, with nothing to sign.
Your trip
We will come back personally with real availability and a real number — not an auto-generated quote. Every inquiry is answered personally — 24/7, and we come back to you right away.
The Velocity Jet Card
A pre-paid 25-hour block that behaves the way you would design it if you were the one flying. Here are the terms, in full, before you ask for them.
Aircraft and operators
The highest safety ratings in the industry
Every aircraft is chosen for the trip and flown by an independently audited, FAA Part 135 certificated air carrier holding the top rating available. There is no house exception. The audit standards are named in full on The Velocity Standard.
Refundability
Always refundable
Unflown hours are returned whenever you ask. Not a credit, not a rollover with conditions, not forfeited at an anniversary — your money back.
Hour expiry
None
Your hourly rate holds and your hours do not expire. There is no anniversary at which unflown time quietly becomes worth less.
Blackout dates
None
There is no date on the calendar you are locked out of. Peak travel dates need fourteen days notice and are priced by the market rather than by us — see the nine questions for the full version.
Overnight fees
None
The aircraft staying with you overnight costs nothing extra.
Ground hold and wait fees
None
Your meeting runs two hours long. That is what a private aircraft is for, and it does not generate an invoice.
The honest comparison
The large programs have the biggest fleets. That is a genuine advantage and we will not pretend otherwise. Here is everything else, line for line.
| Velocity Jets | Large fleet card | Fractional | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Up-front commitment | A customized program, built around how you fly | A fixed tier you buy into, at a level the program sets | A capital purchase plus monthly management fees, typically on a five-year term |
| Unused funds | Always refundable | Commonly non-refundable, or refundable with a penalty after a window | Locked in the asset until the share is sold back, at a remarketing fee |
| Peak days | No Velocity surcharge, no blackouts | Typically 40–90 designated peak days with surcharges or blackouts | Peak-day restrictions and extended callout apply |
| Peak travel dates cost more wherever you book them — that is market demand, and it is not a Velocity fee. What Velocity does not add is a surcharge of its own, and there are no blackout dates. | |||
| Callout notice | 24 hours | Commonly 24–72 hours, longer on peak days | Commonly 24–72 hours, longer on peak days |
| Who answers the phone | One number, answered 24/7 | An account team or a service center | An owner services desk |
| Aircraft you fly | The type you approve | A type within a category, assigned by the program | Your type, or an interchange aircraft when yours is unavailable |
The fleet
Turboprops through heavy jets, with every specification re-verified against manufacturer data — because eight aircraft on the old site were wrong, and the worst of them by four thousand miles.

The Velocity Standard
Every aircraft. Every crew. Every trip. Independently vetted before it is offered to you — not once at onboarding, but every single time.
We source exclusively from FAA Part 135 certificated air carriers holding the highest safety ratings available from independent third-party auditors, and we choose the aircraft for the trip rather than filling a fleet. A rating is not a badge an operator buys; it is an audit they pass.
An operator can be excellent in March and have a lapsed certificate in August. Before every trip we re-confirm the operator’s current certificate status, insurance, and rating — for that trip, on that aircraft, with that crew.
Total hours are not the whole story. We verify time in the specific aircraft type and, where the destination demands it, experience with that field — Aspen in winter and a Caribbean strip at night are not routine airports.
If an operator, an aircraft or a crew does not meet the standard, we do not offer it — even when it is the only option available and even when saying so costs us the booking. That has happened. It will happen again.
Velocity AI
A concierge that actually knows the program — the terms, the fleet, and the honest flight time for the route you have in mind. It will not quote you a price, because pricing is written per member against live availability, by a person.
The principal
Velocity has spent over twenty years flying principals — families, industry figures, production and sport. Velocity is deliberately small: you get a mobile number, it gets answered, and the number of members taken on is limited by that fact rather than by a growth target.
Insights
The private aviation category is not short of marketing. It is short of straight answers. These are ours.
The essential read
Including the one almost nobody asks — whether the program owns the aircraft it is about to put you on.
ReadAircraft
Under an hour in the air a jet never settles into the cruise it was built for, and there are fields it simply cannot use. Here is where a turboprop suits the mission better — and where it stops.
ReadComparison
An honest answer, including the flying pattern where fractional genuinely wins and we say so.
ReadNo template, no tiers you have to fit yourself into. Tell us how you fly and we will build the program around it.
Every inquiry is answered personally — 24/7, and we come back to you right away.
