Pickajet

Pickajet is an independent aviation advisory and jet charter company. It is an accredited member of The Air Charter Association. The company says it was founded in Malta in October 2022, on ten years of business aviation experience.

Who it works for

Pickajet advises principals, family offices and wealth managers. Its tagline is "Acquisition. Oversight. Charter." It keeps its focus narrow on corporate aviation. Its team is small.

Services

• Acquisition and advisory: independent buy-side help for people adding an aircraft to a portfolio, including sourcing, structuring and due diligence.
• Oversight: ongoing help with an aircraft after purchase.
• Charter coordination: the company says it does not run a booking platform. Each job starts with a conversation, so the aircraft and operator match what the trip needs.

Principles it states

• The advisory fee is paid by the buyer and does not depend on a deal closing.
• A lawyer and a flight dispatcher, each with about ten years of experience, work on every job.
• Most of the work comes from referrals and repeat clients.

Operational tools

Pickajet says its advice goes beyond the market. It uses mission and performance analysis, a review of jurisdictions and operator checks. It names Eurocontrol data and professional flight planning software among its tools.

The team

The founder and managing director is Andrea Cini. The site also names an executive assistant and a policy executive.

Client notes

Comments on the site cover a charter from Munich to Porto for a family of four, a last minute charter from Ibiza to Barcelona, and an aircraft purchase for a Swiss family office. The site says Pickajet Ltd acts as an intermediary when arranging air charter.
