Charter broker Mercury Jet Charter is offering one-way charter rates under its new Mercury Express program. Mercury will sell the entire aircraft or empty legs for rates starting at $4,500. Typical one-way rates include a coast-to-coast Citation X for $21,000, and a light jet from New York to South Florida starting at $7,000. Mercury Express also offers aircraft management services, although Mercury does not provide these directly, instead placing client aircraft with aircraft management firms that the charter broker deems suitable.
