L’AIRE is a membership that’s the perfect combination of commercial air travel and private jet charter. We’ve eliminated the need to surf web sites for the best fares.

Instead, L’AIRE membership offers a one-time annual or monthly subscription fee for unlimited travel within our destinations. We know you were born to travel the world. Arrive at a private terminal and board your flight like you would a private charter. L’AIRE flights include private jet aircraft, mid-size and commercial planes.
