About those hourly rates

They are indicative market ranges for the cabin class, not a rate for a specific tail and not a quote. What a trip actually costs depends on where the aircraft is positioned, the season, the airports and the operator — which is why we quote a trip rather than sell an hourly rate. Our 10% fee and federal excise tax sit on top, both shown as their own lines.
