Availability

When you own a ¼ share in a Pilatus PC-12 with SOMA Jets, you gain guaranteed access to your aircraft, without the uncertainty that comes with traditional charter or jet cards.

We’ve structured our fractional ownership program to ensure your aircraft is ready when you need it, with scheduling built around fairness, responsiveness, and personalized support.

  • 72+ days of access per year (¼ of the calendar year), including peak travel periods

  • Guaranteed aircraft availability with as little as 48–72 hours’ notice

  • Additional access at discounted rates when your fellow owners aren’t flying

  • Priority booking for holidays and high-demand weekends

Cash Flow Potential

Unlike most private aviation programs where aircraft sit idle when not in use, SOMA Jets puts your investment to work. Our Pilatus PC‑12s are not just luxury travel assets — they’re also mission-capable tools that participate in aerial firefighting contracts throughout the year.

This means that, as a ¼ share owner, you’re not just minimizing travel costs — you have the potential to generate positive cashflow from your ownership.

How It Works

  • When you’re not flying, the aircraft is deployed under SOMA’s managed firefighting operations

  • Government and private contracts generate revenue for the aircraft while it’s on mission

  • That revenue is used to offset operating costs, maintenance, hangar, and insurance

  • At the end of each year, any profits beyond expenses are distributed among owners based on share percentage

The Advantage of Utility and ROI

Most fractional programs focus only on access — SOMA gives you access and income potential. Through strategic seasonal firefighting deployment, our PC‑12s stay active, compliant, and revenue-generating, all while being maintained to the highest private aviation standards.

What Owners Can Expect

While cashflow results may vary based on the year’s deployment schedule and mission duration, many owners experience:

  • Reduced out-of-pocket costs for their flight hours

  • Partial or full offset of annual operating expenses

  • Year-end distributions depending on the aircraft’s contract performance

Ownership That Works as Hard as You Do

With SOMA Jets, fractional ownership isn’t just a luxury — it’s a well-rounded aviation investment with meaningful upside. It’s an opportunity to enjoy the freedom of private flight while your aircraft supports critical missions and earns revenue when you're not flying.

Cost

¼ share in a Pilatus PC‑12 with SOMA Jets: $975,000

If you’re flying private more than a few times a year, chartering can quickly become expensive and unpredictable. With a ¼ share in a Pilatus PC‑12, you gain guaranteed access at a fixed, discounted hourly rate; with none of the markup or fluctuation that comes with on-demand charter.

Predictable Budgeting. No Surprises.

  • Fixed hourly rates

  • No repositioning fees

  • No peak-day surcharges

  • No minimum flight hour requirements

You’re not paying retail charter pricing for someone else’s aircraft, you’re flying your own, with priority scheduling and total cost transparency.
