Latitude Means Freedom
Freedom to come and go as you please. Aboard the specific aircraft you choose, from our select network of 2,500 jets. With flight availability guaranteed on as little as 10 hours’ notice.* In the competitive arena of private jet travel, OneSky’s Latitude program is unparalleled in service, safety and satisfaction. As a member, you’ll enjoy the ultimate flying experience, beginning with a personal flight advisor who will execute every detail of your trip to perfection.
Latitude members are always our first priority. Unlike jet card programs, where members are second in line to fractional owners and may be subject to a bump in departure time on peak days. While fixed-rate charter cards eliminate your ability to choose the specific aircraft on which you will fly. These programs make money by putting you on the lowest cost (often the oldest) plane available. OneSky’s Latitude program is engineered so that our interests align with yours. You pick the plane, you set the departure time, we do the rest.
The more you fly with us, the more you’ll feel at home. We make it our business to get to know you and your preferences. We’ll make sure to have your favorite food and beverages onboard and any other personal touch that will make your trip more pleasant.
Safety First
At OneSky, we’re very proud of our industry-leading safety program. We only partner with private jet operators that exceed FAA Part 135 requirements. We have worked closely with the noted aviation safety group, Wyvern, to develop the breakthrough PASS program. This due diligence reporting system searches FAA databases daily to deliver the most accurate and up-to-date information on pilot history, aircraft status and charter operator compliance. Our PASS information is augmented and cross-referenced by ARG/US TripCheq, to deliver the most comprehensive set of trip-specific safety checks in the industry. Prior to each flight:
• All pilots receive background checks before they are approved. • We make sure the flight crew meets ARG/US and OneSky minimums of 3,000 hours; with a total of 250 hours in the specific type of aircraft you select for the pilot in command. • Aircraft records are checked to ensure that FAA information matches the certificate of the selected air carrier.
Expertise In and Out of the Cockpit
At OneSky, we’ve pioneered the use of sophisticated information technology to identify dozens of potential points of failure and inject quality checks to ensure reliability. Every flight is tracked, every detail is double checked. Nothing is left to chance.
In addition to being innovators, we’re also aviators. One third of our staff are licensed pilots. We can explain all of your options, like the difference between a Hawker 700 and the newer 850XP. That’s important, because when you fly with OneSky you don’t just choose the size of your jet, you actually select the specific aircraft for each flight from an array of options drawn from our carefully vetted network of over 2,500 jets.
Your Flight Account
Like other private jet membership programs, joining Latitude requires a cash deposit of at least $100,000. Your account will be drawn upon to facilitate easy and rapid confirmation of your flights. Unlike other programs, your money is automatically placed in escrow where it earns interest at no cost to you. All deposits are refundable and there is no expiration date. So, when compared with other programs, you’ll find that the Latitude flight account has no downside whatsoever.

Latitude membership complements your existing program with an easy, hassle-free way to take advantage of savings available in the charter marketplace-- without sacrificing safety or service standards!
Real Life Member ExperiencesA Marquis Jet® member had a last-minute family emergency that happened to fall on a Marquis Jet "peak period" day. Marquis told him that he was out of luck. The gentleman reached out to OneSky and was matched with an empty leg on a Citation Sovereign from Teterboro to West Palm Beach for $14,750 – representing a savings of $8,990.
The same Marquis Jet® member was vacationing in Aspen and inquired about availability to get a better value than with his Marquis hours on his return to Teterboro. An empty leg was available on a 2004 Hawker 800XP for $18,500 – representing a savings of $11,785.
A Sentient member was looking for a one-way from Palm Springs to Indianapolis, continuing on to Detroit. He had booked a midsize jet (in the select class) for $22,000 through Sentient. OneSky had an empty leg on a light jet available for $11,100, representing a savings of $5,300 over the Sentient light jet rate.
A Marquis Jet® Member had a 2-day round trip from Birmingham, AL to Casper, WY on a Hawker 800XP. The Marquis price for this trip would have been $52,975. OneSky secured a Hawker 800A (slightly older aircraft) for $31,416, representing a savings of $21,559.
A FlexJet member had a same-day round trip from Islip, NY to Racine, WI. This trip would have consumed approximately 4 hours of his fraction, representing a cost of $16,000. He booked a round-trip through OneSky for $9,200 on a Citation II, representing a savings of $6,800.
A Sentient member booked a one-way from Bedford, MA to Vail on a "select" midsize jet for $24,300. His trip matched with an empty leg on a 2002 Hawker 800XP (a much newer, nicer aircraft) for $22,000, representing a savings of $2,300 on an upgraded aircraft. ________
