OneSky Jets Empowers Fractional and Flight Card Owners

Members Can "Trump" Their Fixed Prices and Win on Every Flight

New White Paper, "Guide to Private Jet Membership," Outlines Opportunities to Hedge Against Fractional and Fixed-Rate Market

MANCHESTER, NH--May 15, 2007 -- OneSky Jets (www.onesky.com ), the fastest-growing brand in private aviation, announced its new Latitude Membership product -- an innovative membership solution designed to meet the needs of frequent private jet travelers, including fractional owners, fractional cardholders, and flight cardholders.

OneSky's new Latitude Membership program leverages the professional experience and skills of a team of experts who understand the benets and pitfalls of every jet membership program to advise clients when it makes sense to use card or fractional hours and when it makes more sense to go 'out of program' with OneSky.

OneSky has also issued "The Guide to Private Jet Membership," a best practices white paper on private jet membership, detailing scenarios where xed-rate pricing represents a good value, and where it can be trumped by OneSky's high quality ondemand products. Travelers are invited to learn more about the program, and order the Guide at www.OneSky.com/Membership .

"We are arming our clientele with a gamechanging hedge against the price structures oered by their fractional providers," said Justin Sullivan, Vice President of OneSky's Private Client Group.  "It's really quite simple: anyone who is an owner of
a fractional share, or who holds a flight card, has a terrific asset -- guaranteed pricing as part of their existing program.

Sometimes this pricing is a good value, and other times it is not so good. We are here to advise our clients on a trip-by-trip
basis with the information they need to get the best deal. If the best value happens to be xed pricing through their existing
fractional share, we advise them to use those hours," continued Sullivan.

As an example of how Latitude trumps private jet cards, Kenneth Kahn, president of LRP Publications and a Sentient Travel Card Member, recently saved over $33,000 on two trips: West Palm Beach to Las Vegas for a 6-day trip on a midsize jet. Sentient price: $57,726. Latitude price: $36,432; West Palm Beach to San Diego for a 4-day trip on a midsize jet. Sentient price: $50,476. Latitude price: $38,158.

"In terms of level of service, aircraft quality, and overall experience, OneSky Jets is on par with my experience as a Sentient Member. Of course, the added element is value. OneSky has empowered me to make savvy buying decisions," said Kahn.
While most Members choose to place funds on deposit into escrow to ease the transaction process, it is not a requirement to participate. Latitude Membership is exclusively available to members of the following: Sentient Jet, NetJets/Marquis Jet, FlexJet/FlexJet 25, Flight Options/JetPass, CitationShares/VectorCard, Avant Air and JetNetwork.
