Jet Partners

Jet Partners is a private jet charter broker based at 101 Hering Drive in Ronkonkoma, on Long Island, New York. Benton Morgan and Erik Hocoluk co-founded the company in 2010. According to the company, both founders have worked in private jet charter since 2007.

The company describes itself as a charter services arranger under 14 CFR Part 295, not a direct air carrier. It does not operate its own aircraft. Instead, it arranges flights with third-party licensed operators, and the operator chosen for each trip keeps operational control of the aircraft, crew and flight.

Its services include on-demand charter, group charter for events, teams and corporate travel, and cargo charter for time-sensitive freight. Its website also lists empty-leg flights and a jet card program. Quotes are built around each itinerary, and clients can compare the proposed aircraft, the named carrier, the schedule, fees and written terms before they accept a trip.

The aircraft on offer range from turboprops such as the King Air 350 and Pilatus PC-12, through light, midsize and super-midsize jets, up to heavy jets such as the Gulfstream G650 and Global 7500. Which aircraft is available depends on the operators the company finds for each request. It arranges both domestic and international trips.

Jet Partners says clients can ask for carrier details and third-party audit information, such as ARGUS or Wyvern data, on the operator proposed for a trip. These ratings belong to the carriers, not to Jet Partners. Flyers who want this information should ask for it with each quote. The company also says it was listed on the Inc. 5000 in 2015 and 2016.
