Jetpooling (also known as jet-sharing) is an arrangement among a group of jet travelers by which each individual shares the cost of private jet travel by paying on a per seat, pro rata basis. Those included in such arrangements are referred to as 'jetpoolers'. Jetpooling is a fairly new concept (12/2008) that originated as an alternative for air travelers to still enjoy the benefits of travelling on a private jet without paying all of the expenses involved. It was also developed to help offset carbon emissions by allowing people who would otherwise book separate jets, to fly together.〔http://travelposh.com/index.php/flights/cogojets-private-jet-pooling. 2008〕 Jetpoolers match flight terms and then enlists an agent to act on their behalf to secure lift for the trip.〔http://cogojets.com 2008.〕 With jetpooling, flights are not previously booked, per se', rather they are booked once travelers agree on terms (from, to, date, time). No funds change hands amongst the travelers. Flight costs are collected by the agent that secures the jet. Jetpooling only applies to aircraft with turbine engines. Some aviation companies may offer a similar product using smaller, piston aircraft, but these offerings do not require DOT/FAA approval to do so. Companies that offer jetpooling using the aforementioned concept must receive DOT/FAA approval in order to legally allow travelers to pay on a per seat, pro rata basis.〔Federal Aviation Administration Regulation Part 135, subpart A, General section.〕 ==References== 1. http://cogojets.com 2. http://travelposh.com/index.php/flights/cogojets-private-jet-pooling 3. http://www.justluxe.com/lifestyle/aircraft/article-239780.php 4. http://www.omaha.com/index.php?u_page=1208&u_sid=10507649&u_rss=1& 5. http://www.nebraska.tv/Global/story.asp?S=9515658 6. http://www.flightpool.com 7. http://www.jetsfive.com/flight-pooling-forum.php 8. http://www.jetprivate.biz/share_a_flight_all_available_legs.php 9. http://economia.panorama.it/soldi/flight-pooling-ricchi-risparmiano-jet-prezzi-low-cost 10. http://www.jetcharterpool.com 11. http://www.WisconsinAirTravelNetwork.com 12. http://www.jetprivati.org/flight-pooling.php 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jetpooling」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
