10. If I don't have a plane set up can I still post a flight?
YES- Many of our members wait until they have a group established to determine the best aircraft for their mission. Once they know the number of passengers and cargo requirements they can then search for applicable charter flights on our site or contact the charter companies to find a plane appropriate for their mission.
11. How come I can book a seat for some flights, but I have to reserve a whole plane for others?
Individuals who own their own plane or participate in a fractional/jet card program may offer one or more seats on flights that they are arranging, with certain legal restrictions (see http://www.privatejetclub.com/members/sharing_details.html for details). Charter companies are prohibited from offering individual seats on any given charter flight; they are only permitted to charter the entire plane for any given flight.
