How the IONA JETS platform works for private, commercial and cargo charter.
IONA JETS is a Swiss digital referral platform. A single request, with your route, dates and requirements, connects you with vetted international broker partners across private aviation, commercial group flights and air cargo charter. Proposals come back through your private Client Portal, where you compare options side by side, message brokers directly and accept the offer that fits your route and your budget. Your contact details stay confidential until you decide to share them with the broker of your choice. No platform fees. No registration. No commitment, at any stage of the process.
- Private aviation: business jets for corporate travel, leisure flights for family holidays, medical evacuations with ICU-equipped aircraft and critical care teams, helicopter transfers for city-to-resort or airport-to-yacht legs, and empty leg flights on repositioning aircraft at reduced rates. Broker partners connect with certified operators worldwide across every aircraft category, from very light jets for short regional sectors to ultra-long-range jets for non-stop intercontinental travel. Submit your route, dates and passenger details in a single request, and structured proposals come back through your Client Portal.
- Group and airline charter: large-scale flights for corporate events and MICE programs, sports teams traveling between fixtures, diplomatic missions under strict confidentiality protocols, music tours aligned to performance dates, and airline sub-charter operations with ACMI and wet lease structures from 20 passengers upward. Broker partners handle manifest coordination, dedicated check-in, fast-track security, branded cabin configurations, tailored catering and ground logistics at each destination. Whether you need a narrowbody for a European shuttle or a widebody for an intercontinental delegation, the network covers all categories.
- Air cargo charter: standard commercial freight on dedicated freighters, urgent AOG components with rapid deployment for production line emergencies, pharmaceutical cold chain cargo under GDP compliance, dangerous goods across all nine IATA DGR hazard classes with certified operators, perishable produce with phytosanitary clearance, heavy and outsize equipment on nose-loading freighters, humanitarian aid air cargo charter, and live animals under IATA LAR compliance with climate-controlled compartments. Broker partners manage ground handling, customs clearance, regulatory compliance and shipment monitoring from warehouse collection to final delivery.
A Swiss platform built on transparency, broker expertise and operational structure.
The air charter market is complex and fragmented. Finding the right broker, understanding pricing and comparing options takes industry knowledge most clients do not have. IONA JETS exists to bridge that gap. Founded in Geneva by an aviation professional, the platform partners with leading private jet charter brokerage firms including Air Charter Service, Eurosky Corporate Solutions and Jet Luxe. Each request goes to qualified broker partners who handle quoting, contracting and operational coordination with certified operators worldwide.
- Confidential until you decide: Your personal and contact details including your name, email address, telephone number, company name and billing information are masked from all broker partners until you accept a proposal through the Client Portal. You review aircraft options, compare pricing from multiple brokers, ask questions through the built-in messaging system and evaluate attached documents without any broker having access to your identity or contact information. You maintain full control over when and with whom you engage, and the decision to share your details is triggered only by your explicit action within the Client Portal.
- No cost to clients: IONA JETS does not charge any fee, commission, surcharge or service cost to clients at any stage of the process, from initial request submission through proposal review, broker comparison and booking confirmation. The platform is funded by commissions paid by broker partners upon successful conversion of referred client requests. Your financial relationship is established directly and exclusively with the broker partner you select and the operating carrier they engage on your behalf. There are no hidden costs, no subscription requirements and no registration fees associated with using the platform or the Client Portal.
- Safety and compliance: Broker partners work with operators holding valid Air Operator Certificates (AOCs) issued by competent aviation authorities such as EASA, the FAA or equivalent national regulators. Crew qualifications, recurrent training, insurance coverage and aircraft maintenance compliance are verified as part of the operator selection process for each mission. Industry audit programs such as IS-BAO, Wyvern Wingman, ARGUS and IOSA provide additional independent verification. The full safety and compliance framework is detailed on our dedicated page.

Frequently asked questions about the IONA JETS platform.

How much does it cost to charter a private jet through IONA JETS?
Private jet charter pricing depends on five variables: aircraft category, route distance, passenger count, positioning legs and seasonal demand. A light jet on a short European hop may start at a few thousand euros; an ultra-long-range aircraft on an intercontinental route can reach six figures. Through IONA JETS, you receive multiple private charter quotes from competing brokers and compare pricing transparently. No platform fees are ever charged to the client. For a detailed pricing breakdown by aircraft type, see our private jet cost guide.
What types of charter flights can I request on the platform?
The platform covers three segments: private aviation (business jets, leisure flights, medical evacuations, helicopters, air taxis and empty leg flights), commercial group flights (airline sub-charters with ACMI structures, MICE and corporate events, sports teams, diplomatic missions, music tours), and air cargo charter (standard freight, express AOG, pharma cold chain, dangerous goods, heavy lift and humanitarian aid). Submit requests across all segments from a single account and manage them through your Client Portal. Each segment has a dedicated page with detailed information on aircraft types, use cases and booking options.
Is IONA JETS a charter broker or an aircraft operator?
Neither. IONA JETS is a Swiss digital referral platform. We do not operate aircraft, hold an Air Operator Certificate or negotiate flight contracts. Once you submit a request, one or more vetted broker partners in the network take over: sourcing aircraft, negotiating pricing, managing your flight. The model gives you access to multiple broker proposals with full transparency throughout. Read more about how the platform was built and how the broker network is structured on our dedicated pages.
How quickly can I get a charter flight quote?
Broker partners typically return initial proposals within a few hours of receiving a detailed request. The turnaround tracks the complexity of each mission: routing, aircraft requirements, passenger or cargo specifics, and any special logistics involved. On well-served private jet charter routes, quotes often land within the hour. Complex air cargo operations, multi-leg group itineraries or short-notice missions take longer, since brokers verify operator availability, regulatory clearances, insurance coverage and ground handling at each point of the journey.
IONA JETS acts solely as a digital referral platform connecting clients with independent air charter brokers across private, commercial and cargo aviation. IONA JETS is not an air carrier or aircraft operator and does not operate any flights; all flights are quoted, contracted and performed exclusively by third-party brokers and/or certified operators under their own licenses, terms and conditions and insurance policies. The descriptions provided on this website are of a general nature and reflect common practices and service standards within the air charter industry; they are for guidance only and do not constitute a guarantee that a particular service, configuration or feature will be available on every mission. All services remain subject to operational constraints, availability and applicable regulations, and the precise conditions of your trip or shipment will be confirmed by the broker partner at the time of booking. Any transport-related obligations or liabilities rest solely with the contractual carrier and/or broker identified in the booking documentation. The IONA JETS Business subscription provides team management, billing consolidation and workspace tools, and does not modify the contractual relationship between client and broker for any specific flight. The IONA JETS Business subscription is made available exclusively to professional and business users, and is not intended for consumers acting outside the scope of a commercial, industrial, craft or liberal activity. Payment processing is operated by Stripe Payments Europe Ltd under their own terms and privacy policy, and IONA JETS does not store full card details on its own infrastructure. (1) IONA JETS is remunerated exclusively by partner brokers in the form of a commission, upon successful conversion. Clients pay no fee directly to IONA JETS at any stage of the process. Broker partners retain full pricing autonomy and set the quoted price independently for each Flight Request, taking into account their own commercial parameters and the standard practices of the air charter industry; IONA JETS does not set, control or guarantee the final price proposed by any broker, and encourages but cannot impose pricing parity with direct requests. The competitive multi-broker quoting available through the Platform is designed to provide market-driven pricing transparency, which remains subject to competition between brokers and operators. (2) Aircraft, country coverage and broker partner office figures reflect the aggregate global reach of IONA JETS partner brokers as publicly communicated by each partner. Aircraft accessibility and country coverage depend on operator availability, route, and certifications applicable to each mission; figures are indicative and subject to change. (3) The IONA JETS Business 14-day free trial requires a valid payment method on file at signup; no charge is processed during the trial period. Unless canceled before the end of the trial, the subscription automatically converts to the paid plan at 99 CHF/month + applicable VAT, with the first invoice issued on the day following the end of the trial. (4) The IONA JETS Business subscription is offered on a monthly recurring basis at the price displayed on this page (currently 99 CHF per month, excluding any applicable VAT or local taxes). IONA JETS is a Swiss-registered business (CHE-214.262.010 TVA); the applicable Swiss VAT (currently 8.1%) is added at checkout for subscribers located in Switzerland. For business subscribers established in the EU/EEA who provide a valid VAT identification number at checkout, the reverse-charge mechanism may apply in accordance with applicable rules, in which case the subscriber accounts for VAT under their own jurisdiction and no Swiss VAT is charged. Prices, payment terms and feature scope may evolve over time; any material change will be communicated in advance to active subscribers in accordance with applicable consumer protection regulations. (5) The IONA JETS Business subscription renews automatically each month until canceled. Cancellation can be performed at any time from the IONA JETS Business Portal and takes effect at the end of the current billing period; no pro-rata refund is issued for partial periods, and access to the IONA JETS Business features is preserved until the end of the period already paid.
