Phenom 100 Scheduled Service Launched by JetSuiteX

New public charter service JetSuiteX is introducing service between Carlsbad and San Jose, CA, starting October 17th. JetSuiteX is offering “private jet travel” but is sold by the seat at commercial rates. Seat fares for the new San Diego County – Bay Area route will begin at $499 each way, according to a press release by the company.

JetSuiteX will connect McClellan–Palomar Airport with Mineta San José International Airport with four roundtrip flights per week – a 7:45am departure from Carlsbad and a 5:00pm return flight from San Jose – on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, on a four-seat Phenom 100 aircraft. The public charter operator launched service in April, and currently offers regular flights on 30-seat E135 aircraft in major west coast markets, including Las Vegas, Burbank and Concord in the East Bay.

Flight frequency along JetSuiteX’s other San Jose “Tech Charter” route to Burbank will also increase starting on October 17th, with two round-trip flights daily and fares starting from $129 each way.

“We are thrilled to introduce service between San Diego County and the Bay Area, adding yet another JetSuiteX destination,” said JetSuite CEO Alex Wilcox. “Our new route is the first publicly available non-stop service to the Bay Area in at least 20 years. This service, in combination with our BurbankSan Jose service and seasonal San JoseBozeman, MT route will make San Jose a cornerstone of JetSuiteX offerings.”

JetSuiteX provides many of the comforts usually associated with private jet travel but for the price of a traditional airline seat, offering:

  • Private jet terminals (FBOs) so the experience is faster and more comfortable, with no airport terminal delays, security lines, waiting for gates or long walks through terminals;
  • 4, 6, and 30 seat jets, each with legroom comparable to domestic airlines’ business class service;
  • Individual power outlets;
  • Free WiFi and inflight entertainment onboard streamed to passengers’ personal devices, and;
  • A spacious, extra soundproofed cabin interior covered in soft leather.

Unlike alternative offerings, JetSuiteX clients don’t need to pay a monthly subscription, or travel in small propeller airplanes.
