About Jetify
We put people who aren’t pilots
into the second seat.
Jetify is a UK-based specialist that arranges passenger flights in ex-military fighter jets. We work with nine civil-certified operators across seven countries, booking flights in seven aircraft types for people with no licence and no flying experience. We are not a charter broker and we do not operate aircraft ourselves.

History
How we got here.
2011
Jetify launches as a UK reseller of fighter jet experiences, working with two operators in the Czech Republic.
2014
Alpine flights added with a Swiss operator flying the L-39 Albatros and Hawker Hunter out of Sion.
2018
Private jet charter added as a second line of business, and later wound down.
2023
The open aircraft database launches, covering sixty-plus types well beyond the ones we book.
2026
Charter is retired. Jetify refocuses entirely on fighter jet flights and begins opening the platform to other operators.
Operators
Who actually flies the aircraft.
Jetify does not own or operate aircraft. Every flight is flown by a civil-certified operator under its own national aviation authority approval, by pilots who are current on type. We audit each operator before listing them and review maintenance and incident records annually. If an operator loses a certification, we stop selling that flight the same day.
Certification
Each operator holds a current national aviation authority approval
Pilots
Ex-military, current on type, minimum 1,000 hours
Insurance
Passenger liability cover verified annually
Review cycle
Maintenance and incident records reviewed every 12 months
