Aircraft Rental Rates
Premier Flight Academy's aircraft rental program is based on a dry rate pricing structure. This consists of an hourly flat rate along with a charge for fuel usage based the aircraft's hourly fuel burn and the current market price. Fuel prices typically vary anywhere from $5.00 - $6.75 per gallon. Additional ways to save include fueling aircraft at less expensive FBOs, or by participating in our pre-pay or member programs.
