JSX

Scheduled public-charter seats on 30-seat Embraer jets from private terminals. The highest-volume legal sell-by-seat product in the U.S.

7.9/10
Recommend

Best for

Point-to-point U.S. city pairs where you want a private terminal and a published fare, not a whole-aircraft quote.

Not ideal for

Anyone who needs a true private cabin, last-minute off-network routing, or a guaranteed empty airplane.

Verdict

JSX is the reference sell-by-seat product and is tied with Elevate Jet at 7.9 on the Charter Index. You buy a ticket, not a jet. The public-charter structure is what makes individual seats legal and scalable. Cabin is a 30-seat regional jet with no middle seats, 20–30 minute airport arrival, and fares that often sit closer to first class than to charter. Inventory exists only on published routes. That constraint is the product — and the reason the score matches Elevate rather than sitting above it.
