A cost-plus jet card that shows you exactly what you pay for. The raw operator cost, plus a single transparent management fee. No initiation fees, no monthly charges, no blackout dates. Funds never expire and unused balances are fully refundable.
The Model
Most jet cards charge a fixed hourly rate that hides the broker's margin inside the price. With Ravello One, you see the raw cost that the operating carrier charges for your specific trip, and you pay a single management fee on top. That fee is the only way we earn on the transaction. Nothing is hidden.
The actual price the Part 135 operator charges for your flight — including fuel, crew, landing fees, and repositioning. This number varies by route, date, and aircraft availability, which is exactly why a fixed hourly rate would either overcharge you or underserve you.
A single percentage applied to the operator cost. This covers our sourcing, operator verification, pilot review, trip coordination, and concierge services. The percentage decreases as your deposit tier increases.
No initiation fees. No monthly charges. No cancellation fees. No peak-day surcharges. No blackout dates. No fuel surcharges layered on after booking. The operator cost plus the management fee is the total.

Card Features
“The cost-plus model means you benefit when operator pricing is competitive. Instead of paying a fixed rate that accounts for the broker's worst-case scenario, you pay what the flight actually costs — plus a fee you can see.”
Fund security
When you deposit funds into the Ravello One Jet Card, that money is held in escrow by an independent escrow agent, a law firm named in your program documents. It is not held by us, and it is not used to fund our operations. Funds are released from escrow only to pay for a specific flight you have booked, and only with the explicit authorisation of Ravello Jets Inc. Operators require payment in full before departure, so the release happens once your flight is confirmed, and never for anything other than your flight.
Interest earned on escrowed balances is retained by Ravello Jets and offsets the cost of holding your funds independently. Your principal is never drawn except to pay for a flight you have booked and Ravello Jets Inc. has authorised.
Nothing leaves escrow in bulk, and nothing leaves ahead of a booking. When a flight is booked and authorised, its cost plus your management fee is drawn from your balance and paid to the operator. You receive a statement before you fly showing the raw cost, the fee, and your remaining balance.
Funds transfer to the operator only once a specific flight is booked, confirmed, and explicitly authorised by Ravello Jets Inc. Operators require payment in full before departure, which is why the release happens before you fly rather than after. Nothing is released for any other purpose.
The escrow agreement stipulates that undrawn funds remain your legal property. They cannot be seized as part of a bankruptcy estate if Ravello Jets were ever to fail.
The escrow agreement sets out an explicit written procedure under which all unused deposits remain fully refundable to you. If you decide the program is not for you, your unflown balance is returned in accordance with your program terms. Because the funds are held independently, returning them does not depend on our cash position.
A copy of the escrow agreement is available on request.
