As stated in part 1 of this DayJet review the soon to open private jet taxi company is going to offer private luxury jets to executive travelers and anyone else who can afford a ride in a private jet. I have a feeling that many wealthy students in Tallahassee and Gainesville are going to add to Day Jets’ bottom line.
A flight from Boca Raton to Gainesville, with a two-hour window for DayJet to complete the trip, would cost about $854. Such a scenario would apply to someone who needs to leave Boca by 8 a.m. and get to Gainesville by 10 a.m. Charter Flight prices can go down to about $331 with a wider time window to complete the flight.
Once the client chooses the time window and departure-destination cities, they receive a price but not the exact time of departure and arrival. This information is sent via e-mail the night before because Day Jet waits until the last moment in oder to attempt to use it’s jets (Eclipse 500) in the most efficient way possible.
The cities with little air service will benefit from DayJets’ flights bringing 16 jobs to Gainesville airport alone.
One major unknown is the use of new aircraft which are untested in a commercial use setting and mainteneace and realiability are still unknown variables. Otherwise DayJets’ private business jet charter flights should be a hit.
