Aircraft Trading: Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trade my jet instead of selling it?
Yes—and in many cases, it’s the smarter, faster path. Trading lets you seamlessly move out of your current aircraft while upgrading to a better fit. We manage both ends of the transaction to ensure it’s seamless, fair, and strategically timed.
How is an aircraft trade different from a standard sale or purchase?
Trades require twice the clarity. You're coordinating two assets, two valuations, and two sets of interests. That's why our deals start with strategy, not speculation. We align timing, tax, and transition details before the LOI is ever posted.
Do you handle the tax implications and regulatory steps of aircraft trading?
Absolutely. We coordinate all legal, regulatory, and tax-related aspects of the trade to protect your interests and ensure compliance.
What does a private jet dealer do for me?
A private jet dealer facilitates aircraft-for-aircraft exchanges. They assess both assets, negotiate terms, coordinate logistics, and ensure the transition is seamless and financially sound.
