What Private Jet Card Comparisons does

Private Jet Card Comparisons, founded in 2017 and based in Miami, Florida, is a subscription-based buyer's guide and comparison platform for private aviation programs. The company's core offering is a database covering more than 500 jet card and fractional ownership programs from over 80 providers, evaluated across 65+ variables and 40,000+ data points. It also operates a corporate-tier database of 1,500+ program options for the B2B segment and publishes proprietary research including weekly WingX flight activity, monthly ARGUS data, and quarterly jet card pricing reports. Supporting tools include a Quick Compare Flight Pricing Calculator, a free Private Jet Charter Flight Time Calculator across seven aircraft categories, and a Fractional Aircraft Ownership Cost Calculator.

The company's revenue model is a $500 annual subscription, with positioning that explicitly excludes referral fees and customer data resale. Customer segments include ultra-high-net-worth individuals (primary), wealth advisors, corporate flight departments (primary for the new B2B product), and private aviation enthusiasts. Go-to-market combines content marketing, industry events including NBAA and Corporate Jet Investor, and trade publication coverage in outlets such as the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, CNBC, and Robb Report, which has recognized the company as an expert source. Founder Doug Gollan serves as Editor-in-Chief; Brett Berkley is COO.

Operationally, Private Jet Card Comparisons is a bootstrapped, founder-led firm with 1-10 employees and no disclosed venture capital or private equity investment. Recent strategic activity in 2026 includes three product launches, the most significant being PJCC for Corporate Flight Departments, which extends the platform into a B2B subscription vertical targeting aviation departments at corporations and fractional operators.

Others

• Robb Report: Robb Report is a luxury-lifestyle publication that extensively covers private aviation and has cited PJCC as an expert source. While not a direct research competitor, it is a comparable media brand reaching the same UHNW buyer and serves as both a peer in audience and a channel for PJCC's earned media.

Broad incumbents

• Flying Magazine: Flying Magazine is a general aviation publication covering piston to turboprop to business jets, including consumer education on ownership and charter. It is comparable as an aviation content and comparison resource for prospective buyers, though its scope is broader than PJCC's jet-card focus.
• Aviation International News (AIN): AIN is a long-established aviation media outlet producing news, data, and analysis across business aviation, commercial, and military segments. It overlaps with PJCC's coverage of business aviation operators, fractional providers, and jet card programs but operates at a broader industry scope with deeper resources.

Direct peers

• Corporate Jet Investor: Corporate Jet Investor is a business aviation research, events, and intelligence company covering the operator, OEM, and financier ecosystem. PJCC participated in its conferences on topics like AI in private jet travel, indicating overlapping audience and editorial coverage of the same providers and programs.
• Business Jet Traveler: Business Jet Traveler is a consumer-facing business aviation publication covering aircraft reviews, ownership options, and charter insights for affluent buyers. It competes for the same UHNW reader as PJCC and overlaps in editorial coverage of jet cards, fractional ownership, and charter alternatives.
• SherpaReport: SherpaReport is a business aviation market intelligence and consulting firm that produces research, benchmarking, and advisory for operators, financiers, and corporate flight departments. It is the closest direct comparison to PJCC's research-and-comparison model, with overlapping subject matter (jet cards, fractional, charter) and a similar subscription/research monetization.
