EJM or Delta Air Elite

I have a client that may get into an XLS+ and wants to put it out for charter a couple hundred hours a year. It will be based in both's back yards. Have spoken to both, but have no history with either.
What say you?

EJM because they are part of the large NetJets group. That network can get several hundred hours of charter.

Call CitationAir. They manage aircraft as well, and if he hasn't already purchased it they can probably get a better price.

They we also guaranteeing charter revenue.

He would rather have his airplane in a hangar everynight.

AT DAE, the pilots receive Delta SkyMiles for every mile of charter flown. The aircraft owner has access to first class and all the benefits that Delta Platinum Medallion members get when they need to use the airline for travel. In addition, charter customers of DAE can combine bookings between Delta Airlines and charter aircraft. All of this can be done on the Delta website.

Didn't Delta Air Elite just change it's name to Delta Private Jets? The owners get some airline considerations also I think. Both outfits are good from what I have heard.

The jet can be placed in a hangar every night. That is not a problem at all.
