Cessna Citation XLS for Lease

A wet lease is a comprehensive package designed to cover all your travel needs from point A to point B. It includes fuel, maintenance costs, and, most importantly, a crew to operate the aircraft.

The term ‘ACMI charter’ is often used interchangeably with wet leasing, providing a clearer understanding of what a wet lease entails. Here’s a breakdown of the ‘ACMI’ acronym:

A stands for ‘aircraft,’ the essential component required for your journey.

C means ‘crew,’ ensuring the presence of pilots to operate the plane and typically cabin crew for in-flight service.

M refers to ‘maintenance,’ meaning that with a wet lease, you won’t have to handle or pay separately for aircraft upkeep.

I signifies ‘insurance,’ which, like car rentals, offers comprehensive coverage. This could include everything from technical issues to exchange guarantees, ensuring seamless travel if an aircraft is delayed or becomes unserviceable.

Private individuals often seek wet lease options when chartering private jets because it offers a hassle-free, all-inclusive solution for starting their journey.
