Established in 1995 and based in Richardson, Texas, Bombardier Flexjet offers a variety of private jet travel options. In Early 2008, the company branded itself as the purveyor of the "working man's private jet" choosing to focus more on the business necessity of flying privately, as opposed to a perceived jet-setting, self-indulgent lifestyle.

Fractional ownership — Individuals or companies can purchase a share in a Bombardier business jet at a fraction of the full ownership cost. Flexjet owners select the aircraft type that best fits their needs, determine the number of hours per year they fly, and purchase shares starting at 1/16th of the total shares of an aircraft (equal to 50 hours of flying). Owners pay predictable monthly management and usage fees, while Flexjet manages aircraft maintenance, flight crews, hangars, fuel and insurance on their behalf. Flexjet fields an exclusive family of Bombardier business jets, including the Learjet 40 XR, Learjet 45 XR, Learjet 60 XR, Challenger 300 and Challenger 605 business jets.

Flexjet One — Under the new Flexjet One program, owners can purchase a whole aircraft and put it under Flexjet management. Benefits include access to the entire Flexjet fractional fleet, the ability to utilize more than one aircraft in a single day, and a simple, worry-free solution - as a result of predictable expenses, no start-up costs associated with typical aircraft ownership, and no decisions to manage regarding crews, hangaring and maintenance. In addition, owners have all the benefits of the Flexjet fractional program, such as its ground-breaking secondary service area, in which ferry fees are eliminated for travel to and from locations outside the continental United States.

Flexjet25 Jet Card — The Flexjet 25 jet card program, operated by Jet Solutions LLC, provides travel-by-the-hour on the Flexjet 25 fleet of Bombardier aircraft.
