So what ? There are other considerations and noone ever makes all the sales.
we don't get all of them, but we are getting a lot of owners who left nja. Just a drop in the bucket for you all but it is making our pie sweet. Man as hard as I try I still can't spell nor tipe.
 
GV did you research the trip recovery time? If you look at NJAowner's post he damn sure did. I would bet that if you figure a fixed number of flights per year will have an aircraft issue, maint etc.. then take the hourly worth of most owners and multiply that times the difference of hours delayed during recovery that there is no one in the industry that will save you as much as Netjets... No matter how much the black and white sales prices look next to one another everyone seems to forget how long it takes to recover.
 
You know there is + & -s everywhere but the thing is flex is getting better with recovery. More a/c more pilots. We have a big problem in that mother can't make the airplanes fast enough.
 
There is no "best"

What you all need to remember in these "wars of words" is that there is no "best" when the criteria is subjective. NJA is not necessarily "better" than others. It is a matter of what suits the needs of each individual cusotmer. If a customer never flies on peak days, has a flexible schedule, and always flies in or out of TEB, BED, HPN, etc., recovery time is not a big deal. If on the other hand you frequent Bozeman, MT on holidays and need to get back home, recovery is very important. (On the recovery issue, twice I have also gotten heavy metal --Flacon & Gulfstream -- from EJM to step in).

Because these matters are subjective, we have McDonalds, Burger King & Wendy's, and also Morton's, Ruth's Chris and Outback. And then again, there are vegetarians.

Fly safe.

Yes, sure did. This particular client does most of his flying between major city pairs East of the Mississippi, so Flex was a good fit for him. As NJA Owner suggests, if he had a ranch in Livingston, Montana where he liked to spend holidays, then NJA would have been a better choice.

My only point was that Flex is getting competitive. They are aggressively cutting prices, are willing to deal and, with the Challenger 300, are operating an aircraft point designed for the fractional industry.
