Sky Access members will enjoy:

  • No limit on quantity of empty legs booked
  • No per-leg cost for empty legs
  • Fixed hourly rate private jet travel
    • Guaranteed availability for domestic flights with 24 hours’ notice on non-peak days
  • Easy online booking through the Delta Private Jets mobile app or Client Portal
  • Access to a fleet of more than 70 Wi-Fi equipped aircraft across the United States
    • All flights operated using twin engine jets

“We are delighted to offer this suite of services and options for our Sky Access members at a reasonable price,” said Gary Hammes, president, Delta Private Jets. “In fact, just one empty leg’s value could be greater than the cost of a full Sky Access membership, making luxury travel affordable and a sound investment for those individuals who don’t want to feel like travelers.”

Empty legs are flights scheduled without passengers to ensure an aircraft is positioned for a trip at the right airport and the right time. This repositioning creates opportunity for last-minute trips at no fee for Sky Access members.
