Private Jet Management Services
Many aircraft owners are using private jet management services to help with the operational aspects of owning and to generate charter income. As a leading private jet management company, Latitude 33 Aviation provides a complete suite of private aircraft management services, including aircraft operation, charter and revenue management, accounting and reporting, and other support functions designed to make aircraft ownership easier and less time-consuming.
What Is Involved in Private Aircraft Management?
Our private jet management services include all the operations required to maintain and operate an aircraft in accordance with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) regulations. We provide both partial and complete aircraft management services to meet each owner’s needs.
Our business jet management services include handling repairs and maintenance, managing crews, ensuring regulatory compliance, and conducting accounting tasks. We provide crew training, arrange scheduling for flights, coordinate aircraft positioning, and work directly with fixed-based operators (FBOs) for ground services. Aircraft owners who select turnkey private jet aircraft management give operational control to our management team, eliminating day-to-day ownership requirements.
Generate Charter Income to Offset Ownership Expenses
When an aircraft is not being used, aircraft owners have the option to earn revenue by allowing the aircraft to be chartered. Our charter department manages scheduling, obtains necessary certifications, coordinates logistics, books charter flights, and arranges a lease-back, generating passive income to offset ownership costs and preserve the aircraft’s value.
Cost Savings and Additional Financial Benefits
Our private aircraft management programs offer significant cost savings opportunities via our industry relationships. The following are some examples:
• Industry-wide low-cost fleet insurance for ground risk, hull, liability, and passenger liability coverage.
• Discounts on fuel costs to reduce per-flight operating costs.
• Discounts on parts and labor for aircraft maintenance and replacement components.
• Access to a pilot pool with type-rated pilots for the owner’s aircraft type, reducing the cost of having a dedicated crew.

FAQs
Aircraft management is a professional service that helps private aircraft owners operate, maintain, crew, schedule, and support their aircraft.
For many owners, aircraft management removes the day-to-day complexity of aircraft ownership. A management company oversees key operational details such as flight crew coordination, maintenance tracking, regulatory compliance, trip planning, hangar coordination, insurance support, and owner scheduling.
Latitude 33 Aviation provides aircraft management from its Carlsbad/McClellan-Palomar Airport location, with experience managing light, midsize, super-midsize, and large-cabin aircraft. The goal is to help owners enjoy private aircraft ownership with more confidence, efficiency, and support.

Aircraft management helps owners reduce the workload, complexity, and operational burden of owning a private aircraft.
The main benefits include professional crew management, maintenance oversight, flight scheduling, regulatory support, vendor coordination, safety program management, and access to operational expertise. A management company can also help owners better understand aircraft availability, trip costs, maintenance timelines, and long-term ownership planning.
For eligible aircraft, charter revenue may also help offset some ownership costs when the aircraft is not being used by the owner. Latitude 33 Aviation can help owners determine whether chartering is appropriate based on the aircraft, owner usage, and market demand.
Aircraft management costs vary based on the aircraft type, size, usage, crew needs, maintenance requirements, hangar location, insurance, and whether the aircraft is used for charter.
There is no single cost that applies to every aircraft owner. A light jet may have a different management structure than a super-midsize or large-cabin aircraft. Costs may include management fees, crew salaries, training, maintenance, insurance, hangar, subscriptions, regulatory support, and trip-related expenses.
Latitude 33 Aviation can provide a management proposal based on the specific aircraft, where it is based, how often it flies, and the owner’s goals. This helps provide a clearer picture of expected operating costs and potential charter revenue opportunities.
Latitude 33 Aviation manages a wide range of private aircraft, including light jets, midsize jets, super-midsize jets, large-cabin aircraft, and turboprops.
