The resurgence of business travel has led to a significant increase in private jet activity, with WINGX reporting a rise in worldwide flights for 20 out of 24 weeks this year. VistaJet has noted a threefold increase in corporate requests for private aviation solutions in the first half of 2025. Private jet usage is also popular for leisure travel, especially to destinations without commercial flights. Demand peaks during sporting events and holidays, revealing opportunities in the market despite challenges in the booking process for private aviation.
"You can save a lot of time-and time, ultimately, is money." George Mattson, CEO of Wheels Up.
According to aircraft charter specialist Chapman Freeborn, harder-to-reach destinations like Scotland's Hebrides, and the French and Italian islands of Corsica and Ischia, are trending this summer.
This year, worldwide private jet activity has been up year-over-year for 20 out of the past 24 weeks, per WINGX data.
