Summary
Ride-sharing apps have become an essential tool for both everyday life and travel. However, booking a private jet is often less straightforward, frequently requiring assistance from intermediaries. Realizing this challenge, Marc Sellouk introduced Flewber for real-time private jet reservations.
Founded in 2018, this innovative company aims to make private air travel more accessible, affordable, and efficient. Flewber boasts access to over 9,000 aircraft — the largest of which can accommodate up to 18 passengers — and 1,900 airports, including exclusive private airstrips often off-limits to many travelers. Users can locate these exclusive runways by searching via address or point of interest, in addition to airport codes, to pinpoint the ones closest to their departure and destination. Moreover, the app is designed for those who tend to plan at the last minute, enabling users to get on their way within 24 hours.
Initially, Flewber offered regional flights solely within the Northeast. However, the service has expanded to cover routes across the United States, Mexico, Canada, and the Caribbean. Travelers simply open the app, select the number of passengers, input their departure and arrival destinations, and specify their desired time and date. The app then presents the user with options to either receive an instant quote or start a search for an empty-leg flight — allowing potential savings of up to 60% on a charter. The updated app incorporates a “share” feature, enabling users to send proposed itineraries to friends or family, making it easy to split costs. Furthermore, while many private jet companies impose annual membership fees, there are none associated with Flewber’s service.
Flying private offers numerous advantages. In addition to scheduling flexibility, travelers do not need to arrive hours in advance to navigate TSA lines. In fact, it is possible to arrive just 15 minutes before takeoff, bypassing crowded airports and boarding directly from the tarmac. Should you choose to arrive early, dedicated personnel are on hand to assist with valet parking and guide you to a business-class lounge featuring snacks and drinks for preflight relaxation.
