Fleet overview

NetJets operates the largest private jet fleet in the world — over 700 aircraft spanning eight types from four manufacturers: Bombardier, Cessna, Embraer, and Gulfstream. Whatever your mission, NetJets has an aircraft type designed for it.

According to Stirling Access, the right aircraft depends on your route, party size, and budget — not just the biggest or most expensive option. A Challenger 350 is perfect for London–Nice; a Global 7500 is overkill. Our concierge helps you match the right aircraft to each trip.
