Private Charter, Personally Arranged

The luxury
of being known.

Private aviation should feel personal. Your time matters. So do the details. At Cypress Jet, you have an aviation advisor who knows you, not just where you're going. We know how you like to fly, who travels with you, what matters when you get there, and when the details aren't negotiable. So when you call, you don't start with an introduction. You start with where you need to go. Private aviation, personally.

When you call, we know who's calling. Tell us where you need to go, your advisor will take it from there.

Family with dog boarding a Cypress Jet aircraft

The difference is what we remember.

The aircraft matters. So does everything around it.

We remember which aircraft you prefer and which ones you don't. Your usual catering order. Your dog's name. The car you want waiting. That you prefer a better value when you're traveling alone, but something newer when you're traveling with family.

Most charter experiences start over every time: a different voice, the same questions, no memory of what mattered to you last time. That's not what this is.

And we know that sometimes a flight isn't just a flight. There's a meeting you cannot miss. A family obligation that won't wait. A reason you're making the same trip every week that you'd rather not have to explain every time you call.

That's why your relationship with Cypress Jet doesn't reset after every landing.

The longer we know you, the less you have to ask.

How It Works

You tell us where. We handle what comes next.

Flying private should give you time back, not another itinerary to manage. From the first call to wheels-up, your Cypress Jet advisor handles the details, and remembers them for next time.

01 / TELL US WHERE

Start with the trip.

Send us the route, timing, and who's traveling. If there's something else we need to know, we'll ask. If you've flown with us before, chances are we already know the rest.

02 / WE HANDLE THE MARKET

The right aircraft. The right operator. The right terms.

We source across our operator network, evaluate the options, verify safety standards, and negotiate on your behalf. You get a clear recommendation, not a list of airplanes to sort through yourself.

03 / WE HANDLE THE DETAILS

You just need to show up.

Once you confirm, we coordinate the details around the flight, from catering and ground transportation to the preferences, people, pets, and priorities that make the trip yours. And next time, you won't have to tell us all over again.

The Aircraft

The right aircraft is different for every trip.

We don't own a fleet, so we're never trying to put you on ours. We source from a vetted network and recommend the aircraft that makes sense for your route, passengers, preferences, priorities, and budget. Sometimes that's the newest aircraft available. Sometimes it's the smartest value. We'll know which matters to you.

Aircraft shown are representative of each category. Before every trip, your Cypress Jet advisor confirms the specific aircraft, operator, safety credentials, configuration, amenities, and capabilities that matter for your flight.

Know exactly what you want? We'll find it. Don't know a Citation from a Challenger? Tell us about your trip and what matters, and we'll provide you with recommendations and walk you through it.

Why Cypress Jet

The details that don't show up in a quote.

Finding an aircraft is only the beginning. What happens before, during, and after every flight is what turns private aviation into something truly effortless.

You won't have to introduce yourself twice

Your Cypress Jet advisor gets to know how you fly, and everything around it. Your aircraft preferences. Your family. Your pets. Your priorities. The things that matter every time, and the things that matter only this time. The relationship doesn't reset when the flight ends.

We stay ahead of the trip POWERED BY FLYATLAS.AI

From booking through arrival, we actively track the details around your flight so you don't have to. Behind the scenes, real-time flight and request tracking through flyAtlas.ai helps us catch changes early and keep you informed when something needs your attention, not every time it doesn't.

Safety isn't assumed

Every operator and aircraft we offer is reviewed against our safety standards and applicable third-party audit data before we recommend it. Because the right aircraft isn't the right aircraft unless we're comfortable putting you on it.

We'll tell you what it costs, and what we think

Clear, all-in pricing means you understand what you're paying before you commit. And because we're your private aviation advisor, we'll also tell you when we think you're paying for something you don't need, or when spending more is worth it.

Members & Clients

Private aviation is personal. So is the recommendation.

I followed Steve from his last firm the moment he went independent. He was always the reason I stayed, never the company.

MANAGING DIRECTOR, PRIVATE EQUITY · CLIENT ACROSS TWO FIRMS
"

I lost a tooth mid-trip in Santa Fe and needed a dentist in New Orleans, then back to finish my vacation, my dog included. Steve had us there and back in a day. No cargo hold, no stress, no missed vacation.

LONGTIME CLIENT · FAMILY & PET TRAVEL
"

I had over $200,000 sitting with another program, and they wanted more money before I could touch my own funds. I walked away from every dollar of it. I haven't looked back since.

CLIENT · MOVED TO ON-DEMAND CHARTER
Steve Simard, Founder & CEO of Cypress Jet
Who's Behind Cypress Jet

I built Cypress Jet because private aviation should feel more personal than it does.

I'm Steve Simard. The Marine Corps taught me that when people are counting on you, the standard doesn't change under pressure. Fifteen years in technology sales taught me that trust is earned by listening, remembering, and doing what you said you'd do.

Then I found private aviation, and clients who had access to nearly anything, but were still being treated like transactions. Cypress Jet is the company I thought they deserved.

Safety & Vetting

The right aircraft starts with the right operator.

Access to an aircraft isn't enough. Before we recommend an option, we evaluate the operator, aircraft, crew, insurance, and available third-party safety data against our standards and the requirements of your trip. If we're not comfortable putting you on it, we don't offer it.

Third-Party Safety Audited $20M+ Operator Liability Coverage FAA Part 135 Operators

Our job isn't to get you to yes.Sometimes the best option costs less. Sometimes it costs more. And sometimes we'll tell you that an available aircraft isn't one we're willing to recommend. You hire us for access. You keep us for judgment.

Questions

Read on. Or just call us.

You'll typically hear from a Cypress Jet advisor quickly during the day and evening. Overnight, our 24/7 AI Concierge can check availability and get your request moving right away, not a voicemail that sits unanswered until morning. We'd rather tell you exactly when you're reaching a person than make a 24/7 promise we can't keep, which is more than most brokers in this industry will tell you. Straightforward domestic trips can often be quoted quickly; complex routings, international travel, and last-minute requests may take longer while we confirm aircraft availability and trip requirements. We'd rather give you a quote we stand behind than rush one to your inbox.

No. Every trip with Cypress Jet is booked on demand, trip by trip, with no prepaid balance, membership fee, or long-term commitment required. You pay for the flights you take. Start with a charter trip. Get to know us. Let us earn your business.

No, and that's intentional. Cypress Jet is a charter broker, not a fleet operator. That means we're not trying to put you on an aircraft simply because we own it or need it to fly. We source across our vetted operator network and recommend the aircraft that makes the most sense for your trip, your preferences, and your priorities.

We start with more than your route and passenger count. We consider range, runway requirements, cabin size, baggage, aircraft age and configuration, amenities, operator credentials, pricing, and the preferences we've learned from flying with you. Then we narrow the market to the options we believe actually make sense and explain the tradeoffs clearly.

You don't need to know which aircraft you need. That's our job.

Every trip is sourced through properly certificated operators and reviewed under Cypress Jet's vetting standards. We evaluate available safety credentials and third-party audit data, insurance, the specific aircraft, and other information relevant to the trip before presenting an option. If we aren't comfortable recommending it, we don't offer it.

The earlier you book, the more aircraft options we'll typically have to choose from, particularly for holidays, major events, international travel, and other peak periods. But private aviation is built for flexibility, and we routinely work with much shorter notice.

If you know you're going, call us. If you just found out you need to go, call us then, too. We'll tell you what's realistically available and work from there.

Often, yes. Same-day availability depends on aircraft positioning, crew availability and duty time, airport requirements, and the specifics of your trip. Call us as soon as you know you need to move, and we'll tell you what's realistically possible.

Yes. We arrange both domestic and international private charter, including complex and multi-leg itineraries. International trips can involve additional considerations, from permits and customs to airport restrictions, handling, documentation, and aircraft range, and we'll coordinate the aviation details around your itinerary.

Tell us where you need to be. We'll work backward from there.

Call us. Your advisor will handle the changes directly rather than sending you back through a booking process. Trips are subject to the operator's cancellation and change terms, which we'll show you before you book.

This is when having an advisor matters most. If something disrupts your trip, we work the problem, coordinating with the operator, evaluating alternatives, and keeping you informed of the options. You shouldn't be left calling around trying to solve an aviation problem yourself.

Yes. We regularly arrange travel with pets. Tell us who's coming, including the four-legged passengers, and we'll source an aircraft and operator that can accommodate them and help address any applicable documentation or destination requirements.

And once we know who's usually coming with you, you shouldn't have to remind us every time.

Yes. Your advisor can coordinate the details surrounding your flight, including ground transportation, catering, and other trip-specific requests. More importantly, we'll learn your preferences over time so arranging them becomes less of a conversation and more of a given.

No, you don't have to be on every flight. You can book trips for family members, colleagues, guests, or others you authorize, whether or not you're on board.

Your advisor will know who's authorized on your account and can coordinate directly with you or the people you authorize to manage their travel.

Absolutely. We can work directly with you or with the people you trust to manage your schedule and travel. We'll learn how you prefer to communicate, who is authorized to make decisions, and which details should come to you versus being handled behind the scenes.

The goal is the same: the people managing your travel shouldn't have to start from scratch every time, either.

Our quotes are presented as all-in pricing for the itinerary you've requested, including the costs and standard fees identified in your quote. The price should only change if the trip changes or an additional service or charge arises that wasn't part of the original itinerary.
