JetShared - Terms and Conditions

Last updated: 18 February 2025

JetShared offers a website where requests for quotations can be submitted for one or more flights with a private aircraft. JetShared is not the company that offers and operates the flights on a private aircraft and is not a party to the agreement between the quotation requester and an aircraft operator that may be established after a request for quotation. These general terms and conditions apply to the submission of the request for quotation and to the service that JetShared provides to quotation requesters.

1. Definitions

  1. In these general terms and conditions, the following terms written with an initial capital letter are used in the following meaning, unless expressly stated otherwise or the context indicates otherwise:
    • Account: The account of the Quotation Requester on the Website;
    • Booking: The agreement between the Aircraft Operator and the Quotation Requester whereby the Quotation Requester books one or more Flights for one or more persons with the Aircraft Operator;
    • JetShared: The user of these general terms and conditions: JetShared
    • Quotation: The quotation for the Flight(s) requested by the Quotation Requester;
    • Request for Quotation: The request for quotation submitted by the Quotation Requester via the Website or received by JetShared or any other means from the Quotation Requester for one or more Flights;
    • Quotation Requester: The legal person, organisation or natural person who has submitted or wishes to submit a Request for Quotation;
    • Passenger: The natural person for whom the Quotation Requester wishes to book a Flight or for whom the Flight has been booked. If the Quotation Requester has submitted a Request for Quotation or has booked a Flight for his own benefit, the Quotation Requester is then also the Passenger;
    • In writing: In writing or by e-mail;
    • Service: The service that JetShared provides, including the provision of the Website on which Flights can be viewed and where the Quotation Requester can submit a Request for Quotation and process it on behalf of an Aircraft Operator;
    • Aircraft Operator: The aircraft operator that offers flights with a private aircraft and with which JetShared cooperates;
    • Flight: The flight with a private aircraft that the Aircraft Operator offers or performs or is required to perform under the Booking;
    • Flight details: Details of a flight by private aircraft;
    • Website: The website www.jetshared.com and the associated application of JetShared.
  2. Unless the context indicates otherwise, terms defined in the singular also refer to the plural and vice versa.
  3. Wherever “he” or “his” is mentioned in these general terms and conditions, “she” or “her” can of course also be read.

2. General

  1. These terms and conditions apply to the submission of the Request for Quotation, the legal relationship between the Quotation Requester and JetShared, the use of the Account and the Service.
  2. Any deviations from these general terms and conditions are only valid if they have been expressly agreed in writing and only apply to the relevant Service for which the deviating agreements have been agreed.
  3. If one or more provisions in these general terms and conditions become void or may be nullified, then the remaining provisions of these general terms and conditions shall remain fully applicable. In that case, JetShared has the right to substitute a provision that is not unreasonably burdensome for the Offer Applicant and that approximates the void provision as closely as possible.
  4. JetShared has the right to change these general terms and conditions unilaterally. The Quotation Requester will be notified of the amended terms and conditions and the date of entry into force by e-mail. If the Quotation Requester does not agree to the amended terms and conditions, the Quotation Requester must no longer use the Service and must delete his Account.
  5. If JetShared does not require strict compliance with these general terms and conditions, this does not mean that the provisions thereof do not apply or that, to any degree, JetShared would lose the right to demand strict compliance in other cases with the provisions of these general terms and conditions.

3. Offer

  1. All Flight Details published on the Website are non-binding and come from Aircraft Operators. JetShared does not guarantee that the Flight Details are correct and complete or that the Flights displayed on the Website are (still) available.
  2. The Flights are offered by the Aircraft Operators and not by JetShared.
  3. Prices on the Website included in Flight Details are indicative, and no rights can be derived from them.

  5. JetShared offers the Service only to Quotation Requesters who are 18 years of age or older.

5. Consequences of non-compliance

  1. JetShared has the right to block the access of the Quotation Requester to his Account or to refuse a Request for Quotation without the Quotation Requester being entitled to any form of compensation if:

  3. The Quotation is without obligation. This means that the Aircraft Operator can revoke the Quotation, even if the actions have been performed as described in Article 8.2. If the Aircraft Operator withdraws the Quotation after the acts as described in Article 8.2 have been performed, such withdrawal shall take place immediately after the acceptance of the Quotation. If the Aircraft Operator withdraws the Quotation and the Quotation Requester has made a deposit or payment, then JetShared will reimburse this amount to the Quotation Requester.

  2. If the Quotation Requester (partially) cancels the Booking, the cancellation conditions of the Aircraft Operator shall apply. These cancellation conditions can be read in the general or other terms and conditions of the Aircraft Operator that have been sent to the Quotation Requester together with the Quotation.

11. Cancellation of the Flight

  1. If the Aircraft Operator cancels the Flight or the Flight does not proceed for any other reason and, to the extent applicable, the Quotation Requester does not agree with the alternative flight offered by the Aircraft Operator, then the price for the Booking will be refunded by JetShared, on behalf of the Aircraft Operator, to the Quotation Requester, provided that JetShared has received this amount from the Aircraft Operator. If JetShared cannot reimburse the Quotation Requester because JetShared has not received the amount from the Aircraft Operator, for example due to the bankruptcy of the Aircraft Operator, JetShared is not obliged to reimburse and JetShared is not liable for any damage suffered by the Quotation Requester as a result.
  2. If the Aircraft Operator goes bankrupt, the Quotation Requester may contact the receiver to file his claim. Submitting a claim on behalf of the Quotation Requester is not covered by the Service.
  3. If the Flight is cancelled by the Aircraft Operator, the Flight does not proceed for any other reason or the Passenger misses the Flight, then JetShared is not obliged or responsible for offering an alternative flight or itinerary and JetShared is not liable for any damage suffered by the Passenger as a result.

The Passenger is responsible for checking that he has the correct travel documents.
  8. If a Passenger is not allowed to leave the country in which he is staying, for example due to laws or regulations or a court ruling, the Quotation Requester is not permitted to submit a Request for Quotation or to book a Flight for the benefit of this Passenger.

13. Position of JetShared

  1. JetShared performs legal acts on behalf of the Aircraft Operator, such as, but not limited to, sending a Quotation and booking confirmation and collecting the price for the Booking.

  3. The Aircraft Operator is not hired by JetShared. The Quotation Requester enters into a contractual relationship with the Aircraft Operator directly. JetShared has only a facilitating function. The Flights are not offered or operated by JetShared. Therefore, JetShared cannot guarantee the quality of the Flights made.
  4. JetShared is not responsible for information coming from an Aircraft Operator.

14. Liability and limitation period

  1. JetShared cannot guarantee the continuous availability of the Website and the accuracy of all data contained on the Website.

JetShared is not liable if the Website is temporarily unavailable or does not function properly.
  2. JetShared is not liable for damage suffered by a Quotation Requester due to a hacker, cyber-attack or a computer virus.
  3. The Quotation Requester is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the data and documents provided by him under all circumstances. JetShared is never liable for any damage that is (partly) caused by the fact that the data and documents provided by the Quotation Requester are incorrect.
  4. JetShared is in no way responsible to the Quotation Requester for the conduct, expressions, information etc. of the Aircraft Operator.

  7. JetShared is never responsible if the Aircraft Operator, for whatever reason, does not carry out the Flight, does not do so in a timely manner, or cancels the Flight.
  8. JetShared shall not be liable if the Aircraft Operator, for whatever reason, refuses to allow the Passenger to board the private aircraft or refuses to carry Passenger's baggage on the private aircraft.
  9. If the Aircraft Operator has not, has not timely or has not properly performed the Flight, has caused damage and/or has acted unlawfully towards the Quotation Requester and/or a Passenger, the Quotation Requester or the Passenger may hold the Aircraft Operator liable for this and not JetShared.

Consequential damage is in any case defined as: lost turnover, lost profit, lost savings, business damage, business interruption, stagnation damage, delay damage, damage to reputation, labour costs, lost holiday or other enjoyment, replacement transport, travel and accommodation costs, personal injury or death, fines imposed and indirect damage, regardless of their origin.
  11. If, despite the provisions of these general terms and conditions, any liability should rest on JetShared, then that liability is limited to €500. Since the Service is free of charge to the Quotation Requester, such limitation of liability shall be deemed to be reasonable. If JetShared relies on its liability insurance, the liability of JetShared will never exceed the amount actually paid out by the insurer of JetShared in the relevant case.
  12. The Quotation Requester indemnifies JetShared against all claims of third parties for damage caused by or in connection with the Service, insofar as JetShared would not be liable to the Quotation Requester for such damage.

Force majeure includes in any case: extreme weather conditions; floods; theft; natural disasters; terrorism; riots; epidemics; pandemic; quarantine obligation; obstacles by third parties, including those of governments; illness or personal family or other circumstances of the natural person who carries out the Service on behalf of JetShared; traffic obstacles; vehicle breakdown; wars or war hazards; fire; strike; boycott; internet failure; power failure; computer intrusion; hacker attack; cyber attack; malfunction in e-mail traffic; government measures; changes in laws and regulations.
