Private travel is often out of reach for people with hectic schedules. Democratizing access has been a goal for years, but several attempts by innovators such as DayJet and Eclipse Aviation have failed. Most private jet operators operate on a cost-plus basis with little discipline around cost and efficiency. About TimeFlys
About TimeFlys Jet Platform: Innovation in Air Travel Booking
Gonzales launched the company to bring a Gulfstream and Honda alumnus’s approach to fractional ownership to the market. Jet It sells HondaJet Elites in increments between 10 percent and 50 percent. Buyers pay for usage by the day, rather than the number of hours most fractional providers charge. And buyers can log flight time with captains to build turbine experience and meet insurance requirements for owning their own airplanes in the future.
In 2023, Peter MacDonald joined the team as CEO to add a digital platform to make it easier to source and directly book flights with operators. The platform’s transparency allows customers to connect with operators, see clear pricing, and save time. By simplifying access, TimeFlys hopes to help people get where they need to be for work and family – with less stress.
