Jet Republic

Becoming a private and exclusive club, a worldwide model of continental elegance and a shining example of tailored aviation: such is the aim of Jet Republic — admittedly no small task. For Jonathan Breeze, the company’s charismatic founder and former RAF pilot, a Jet Republic aeroplane is nothing short of a flying five-star hotel.

Planes on the front page

Launched in September 2008, the company immediately made the headlines, by placing the largest order to date, in Europe at least, for Bombardier Learjets. Indeed, no fewer than 100 aircrafts should soon fly its clients to over a thousand destinations around Europe. Flights are scheduled a mere 24 to 48 hours in advance, allowing for every whim and whimsy. 

Sky high exclusivity


One-of-a-kind fleet has been custom designed to offer everything the modern nomad may require: fine cuisine, quality wines, real espresso and multilingual on-board staff. Technology fanciers will stay connected at all times thanks to the planes’ built-in iPod and Blackberry compatibility. A personal concierge, always available, even on the ground, will finish smoothening out the little hurdles a jet-setter may face.

An extensive network of partners allows the company to fly its clients anywhere in the world, in the aircraft best suited to the length of their journey.

Luxury and ecology

While the environmental impact of all its flights has already been greatly reduced by the forward-thinking design of its fleet, Jet Republic wanted to be carbon-neutral from day one. Therefore, the company has partnered with ClimateCare to transparently compensate its energy consumption by participating in eco-friendly projects in communities worldwide.

Freedom to fly

Flexibility is a key concept here, and it also applies to pricing. Indeed, flight credits can be obtained for as low as 115,000 euros for 25 hours.

Personal aviation cognoscenti will be much better off acquiring shares in one of the company’s exclusive Learjets 60 XR, thereby significantly increasing the predictability and comfort of their flights. A “sixteenth” of an aircraft will set you back a mere 875,000 dollars.

Always luxurious, always fun

Focusing on flexibility and a select clientele already allows the company to offer fun and innovative services. Among others, the Jet Republic Ski Card, a precious passport allowing sports fanatics to fly away to the winter resort of their choice, as if by magic.
