Private jet charter reviews

Reviews from people who've been aboard.

Every review on BeenAboard comes from a flight we verified: a tail photo taken at the airport, a charter agreement or flight data. Read what flyers really thought of the operator, the aircraft and the trip before you book.

Coming soon to the App Store How verification works

For iPhone. Free to read reviews and to write them.

Spotless cabin, early departure

Crew had us wheels-up ten minutes early and the cabin was immaculate. Catering was exactly what we asked for.

How it works

Only people who were aboard can review.

Anyone can write a review online. On BeenAboard, a review publishes only after we confirm the flight happened and you were on it.

01

Log your flight

Scan the tail number at the airport, or add your charter agreement. It takes about 30 seconds.

02

We verify you were aboard

The tail photo's time and place are checked against the airport and the date. A charter agreement, flight data or the operator's confirmation can also verify it.

03

Your review goes live

It shows as "Verified flyer" with the month and region only: never your name, airports, exact dates or tail number.

Before you fly

Check an aircraft in seconds.

Enter the tail number from your quote and see what public FAA records show: which charter certificate lists the aircraft, the operator's names, where it's based, and the date of the FAA list we checked.

BeenAboard isn't a safety rating. It reports what public FAA records show and when they were last updated, alongside reviews from verified flyers.

Private by design

Honest reviews without giving anything away.

People who fly private value discretion. BeenAboard shows the public only what makes a review useful.

The public

Stars, scores, your words and video, the aircraft, and the month and region of the flight. Never who you are.

The operator you flew with

If it manages its page, it may be asked to confirm your flight and then sees your display name and the flight's details. Never your proof or what you paid, and it can't remove your review.

Moderators

May look at your flight and proof to verify it, and at reports, so the platform stays honest.

Only you

What you paid and your pre-trip checks. Prices count, anonymously, only in ranges built from at least five verified flights.

Honest by rule

Negative reviews stay up.

Reviews are never filtered or hidden for being critical. Operators can reply, but they can't remove a review.

  • A review is removed only if it's abusive, fake, off-topic or shares private information, or when its author deletes their account.
  • Operator scores appear only once there are at least five verified flights behind them.
  • A review publishes only after its flight is verified, and verification is never shown early.

For operators

Your page, your answers.

Charter operators can manage their BeenAboard page: confirm passengers' flights while the trip is fresh, and reply publicly to reviews.

Manage your operator page

Ask to manage your page in the app under Account → For operators. A moderator checks that you work for the operator before approving.

Questions

Good to know

Is BeenAboard a safety rating?

No. BeenAboard publishes reviews from verified flyers and reports what public FAA records show, with the date of the data. It doesn't rate, certify or audit operators.

How do you verify a flight?

The fastest way is a tail photo taken in the app at the airport around your flight date. A charter agreement, flight data that matches your photo, or the operator's confirmation can also verify a flight.

Who can see my review?

Everyone can read it, shown as "Verified flyer" with the aircraft and the month and region of the flight. Your name, airports, exact dates and tail number are never shown.

Can an operator remove a bad review?

No. Operators can reply publicly. Reviews are removed only if they're abusive, fake, off-topic or share private information, or when their author deletes their account.

Can I delete my account?

Yes, at any time in the app's Account tab. Everything personal attached to it is deleted with it.
