About IONA JETS

Air charter referral services

IONA JETS provides a structured digital entry point for private aviation, commercial group charter, air cargo and related service requests. Clients submit relevant requirements through the Platform, and participating vetted Broker Partners independently decide whether to assess them and prepare proposals subject to provider availability, feasibility and applicable rules.

Request a flight

Private aviation requests for varied travel needs

Private aviation requests may concern executive travel, leisure itineraries, medical transport, regional air taxi sectors, helicopter charter or travel with animals. A useful submission describes the route, dates, passenger profile, baggage, accessibility needs and any time-sensitive or medically relevant information that responsible providers are permitted to receive. Participating vetted Broker Partners independently decide whether to assess the request, identify possible operators and prepare a proposal. Aircraft suitability, airport access, operating permissions, cabin features and specialist support remain subject to written confirmation for the particular journey.

  • Business and personal travel: Requests may cover executive meetings, multi-city programs, family journeys or leisure travel. Review the dedicated business charter guidance and disclose the complete itinerary before assessing any proposal.
  • Medical and regional missions: A request involving patient transport requires accurate clinical and mobility information for responsible providers. The medical evacuation page explains why aircraft, medical team and acceptance remain mission-specific.
  • Helicopters and animals: Helicopter sectors and animal travel involve distinct restrictions, documentation and provider decisions. Consult the helicopter charter information and state every material passenger, animal, baggage and landing requirement.

Commercial and group charter requests

Commercial-capacity requests may arise from airline disruption, corporate programs, public-sector travel, conferences, entertainment tours or sports movements. State passenger numbers, routing, dates, schedule constraints, baggage or equipment, accessibility needs and requested onboard or ground services. Participating vetted Broker Partners independently decide whether to assess feasibility and which operators or providers to consult. Aircraft capacity, slots, permits, traffic rights, handling, passenger processing and service delivery depend on the operation and decisions of the responsible parties.

  • Airline and urgent capacity: Airlines or authorized buyers may submit sub-charter requirements for identified capacity gaps or disruption. The airline sub-charter page sets out the operational information needed for an initial assessment.
  • Events and organized groups: Conference, incentive and event requests should document passenger flows, schedules, baggage and service priorities. See the MICE and incentive guidance for factors that can affect a group proposal.
  • Sports and entertainment: Team and tour movements may involve equipment, production freight, privacy requests and critical timings. The sports team charter page explains how to present these requirements without assuming availability or synchronized delivery.

Air cargo requests defined by the shipment

Air cargo charter requests may involve general freight, urgent aircraft parts, humanitarian supplies, healthcare products, dangerous goods, perishables, outsize loads or live animals. Assessment begins with commodity, packaging, weight, dimensions, route, timing and documentation, not a generic aircraft preference. Participating vetted Broker Partners independently decide whether to assess the shipment and consult operators, handlers or specialist providers. Acceptance, classification, permits, screening, temperature control, loading, customs and onward services remain the responsibility of contractual parties and authorities.

  • General and urgent freight: Commercial goods and time-critical parts require a complete shipment profile and realistic collection window. Use the general cargo guidance to identify the information needed before feasibility can be assessed.
  • Healthcare and controlled conditions: Medical products may require documented temperature ranges, packaging, monitoring or handling conditions. The healthcare and pharmaceutical cargo page distinguishes requested controls from conditions confirmed by responsible providers.
  • Restricted or complex loads: Dangerous goods, animals and outsize freight require classification, documentation and specialist acceptance. Review the dangerous goods requirements and never rely on a proposal as regulatory approval.

Complementary services subject to confirmation

A flight request may include ground transport, helicopter transfers, terminal or lounge access, airport fast track, cabin presentation, catering or independent security services. These are separate services supplied by the providers identified in the applicable documentation, even when requested alongside a flight. Participating vetted Broker Partners may consult relevant providers if they choose to assess the request, but access, timing, specifications and personnel are not assured. Clients should declare important needs early, review each provider and scope, and obtain written confirmation of price, terms, responsibilities and contingencies before acceptance.

  • Ground movement and terminals: Vehicle transfers and private-terminal access depend on local facilities and permissions. The chauffeur and limousine guidance explains the information to declare before a responsible provider confirms the service.
  • Airport and onboard requests: Lounge access, fast track, cabin presentation and catering remain provider-specific. Consult the VIP terminal information and ensure every requested feature appears in the applicable written confirmation.
  • Catering and security: Dietary needs and security requirements require separate, proportionate disclosures. Review the in-flight catering page and the relevant provider documentation rather than treating a flight proposal as confirmation.

Frequently asked questions about IONA JETS services

These answers explain which request families are available through the Platform, what information helps Broker Partners assess feasibility and where contractual responsibility sits at each stage. They do not confirm that a particular mission, aircraft, provider or complementary service will be available for a submitted request.

Clients may submit requests relating to private aviation, commercial group charter, air cargo and complementary services associated with a proposed itinerary. The available pages help structure information for business, leisure, medical, airline, event, sports, entertainment, freight and specialist requirements. Submission does not mean every request can be served. Participating vetted Broker Partners independently decide whether to assess it, and any aircraft, provider, routing, service or condition remains subject to feasibility and written confirmation.

IONA JETS transmits the submitted requirements through its Swiss digital referral platform to participating vetted Broker Partners. Each Broker Partner independently decides whether to assess the request and prepare a proposal, so no response, number of proposals or timing is guaranteed. If the Client selects a proposal, the selected Broker Partner identifies the proposed operator, carries out its own checks, finalizes the applicable contractual and payment documents and coordinates the confirmed flight with the responsible providers.

Yes, a Client may include ground transport, helicopter transfers, terminal or lounge access, fast track, cabin presentation, catering or independent security requirements in a request. These services are not supplied or guaranteed by IONA JETS. A participating Broker Partner may consult relevant providers, but each service remains subject to local rules, infrastructure, availability and written acceptance. The Client should review the named provider, scope, price, cancellation terms and responsibilities before confirming any proposal.

No universal passenger, aircraft, shipment or financial threshold should be inferred from this page. Whether a request can be assessed depends on its route, timing, scale, documentation, legal status, operational feasibility and the independent decisions of participating Broker Partners and responsible providers. Clients should submit accurate requirements without assuming acceptance. Any proposal must identify its scope and contractual parties, and it should be reviewed on its own terms before a flight or third-party service is confirmed.

IONA JETS acts solely as a Swiss digital referral platform connecting clients with independent air charter Broker Partners across private aviation, group charter and air cargo. IONA JETS is not an air charter broker, air carrier, airline or aircraft operator and does not own, lease, operate, schedule, dispatch, control or perform flights. Participating vetted Broker Partners independently decide whether to assess a request and prepare a proposal. Their participation and the receipt, number, timing, content or terms of proposals are not guaranteed. If a client selects a proposal, operator sourcing, the checks the selected Broker Partner applies to the proposed operator, the applicable contract and payment arrangements and the coordination of the confirmed flight and agreed third-party services with the responsible providers all fall within that broker's own responsibility and procedures. IONA JETS neither performs nor supervises those checks. Each confirmed flight is performed exclusively by the aircraft operator identified in the contractual documentation, under its own operating certificate, approvals, operational control, terms and insurance. IONA JETS reviews Broker Partners before network admission but does not directly certify, approve, select or verify every aircraft operator or downstream provider. Each Broker Partner, operator, authority and provider remains responsible for its own services, decisions, authorizations, insurance, personnel, equipment, contractual obligations and regulatory compliance. Information on this page is general and may change. It does not constitute a quote, booking confirmation, operational assessment or legal, regulatory, safety, environmental, tax or other professional advice. No aircraft, operator, service, response, proposal, price, saving, availability, schedule, performance, result or other outcome is promised or guaranteed. Clients must review the named contractual parties, scope, price, taxes, payment terms, change and cancellation conditions and supporting documents before acceptance. IONA JETS is not a party to the flight or third-party service contract unless expressly stated otherwise in writing. IONA JETS does not charge clients a platform fee for submitting a request, reviewing available proposals or selecting an option through the standard referral service. IONA JETS Business is a separate optional paid subscription. IONA JETS receives remuneration from a Broker Partner when a referred request results in a confirmed booking. The service families described on this page are categories of requests that may be submitted through the Platform, not services performed, managed or guaranteed by IONA JETS. Their inclusion does not establish that every route, aircraft, shipment, provider, permit, facility or complementary service is available or suitable. Any medical, dangerous goods, security, customs, immigration, accessibility or other specialist requirement must be disclosed accurately and assessed by the responsible qualified providers and authorities. *Cashback is available only on eligible bookings and remains subject to the applicable Loyalty Program terms.
