Charter & Fractional
Fractionals See Shift in Travel, Fleet
Fractionals move to larger and longer-range aircraft while membership companies remain happy with small aircraft.

Major fractional operators are slowly changing their fleet makeup and eying new markets as their clients request more international flights, senior executives at NetJets and Flexjet/Flight Options agree. At the same time, though, shorter flights in smaller aircraft are bringing new customers to private aviation, said an executive at membership-based Wheels Up. The executives painted the changing fractional and membership landscapes during NATA’s 2015 Aviation Business Conference in Washington, D.C.
