Yes. As of September 2026, several private-jet card/membership programs advertise no peak-day restrictions or no peak-day surcharges. The distinction matters: “no peak surcharge” can still mean a program has special booking windows on high-demand dates.
| Provider / program | Peak-day treatment | Blackout dates | Published/advertised terms |
|---|---|---|---|
| Magellan Jets – Jet Card | No peak-day surcharge | None | 365-day availability; current materials say no peak-day surcharges and no blackout dates. |
| P3 Jets – Jet Card | No peak days / no peak pricing | None advertised | 24-hour callout; global access; rates advertised as all-inclusive. |
| Fly Alliance – Jet Card | No peak-day surcharge | None | Guaranteed availability with 8 hours' notice; no blackout dates or peak-day surcharge. |
| Silverhawk Aviation – Jet Card | No peak/holiday charges | None | Says “no peak or blackout dates. Ever.” Current comparison specifies no peak/blackout dates. |
| Outlier Jets – Jet Card | No peak-day surcharge | — | 24/7/365 access advertised; however, its terms have historically distinguished peak days by booking notice, so I would verify the current contract before treating this as literally “no peak-day restrictions.” |
| Flex Air – Platinum Jet Card | No additional peak-day charges | None | 24–48-hour lead time; the Platinum card specifically says no blackout dates and no additional peak-travel-day charges. |
| Ayre Aviation – Jet Card | No peak-day fees | None | Advertises no peak-day, late, repositioning or other listed fees and no blackout dates. |
| Titan Aviation – Jet Card | No special peak-season restriction advertised | None | Advertises guaranteed year-round availability with no blackout dates, including peak seasons. |
| Elysium – Jet Card | No peak-day surcharges | None | Advertises zero blackout dates/calendar restrictions and guaranteed access 365 days a year. |
| Erin Air – EA Jet Key | No peak-day surcharge | None | Technically a jet-card alternative rather than a conventional card; fixed hourly rates with refundable deposit. |
If by “no peak day restrictions” you mean I can fly Thanksgiving, Christmas, Presidents' Day weekend, Super Bowl weekend, etc., without either a higher rate or a special peak-day booking rule, the strongest matches from the providers' current published language are:
P3, Magellan, Fly Alliance, and Silverhawk.
There is an important nuance with Outlier: it says no peak-day surcharge, but current/2026 material also references a distinction between peak and non-peak booking windows. So I wouldn't put it in the strict “no peak-day restrictions whatsoever” bucket without seeing its current contract.
Likewise, Jets.com advertises guaranteed 24/7/365 access and no blackout dates, but its current marketing also mentions “fewer peak days,” so I would not automatically classify it as a zero-peak-day program.
One other useful finding: NetJets is not a clean answer for this requirement. Its card structures have historically had 45–90 restricted days depending on the card, and current reporting says new Jet Card sales were limited in July 2026.
If you tell me roughly how many hours/year you want (25, 50, 100+) and whether you care about light/midsize/super-mid/heavy, I can compare these programs on hourly rate, deposit, callout time, daily minimums, repositioning fees, expiration/refundability, and actual peak-day fine print.
When looking for private jet card programs that eliminate peak day surcharges or strict calendar restrictions, it helps to distinguish between true "blackout/no-access" dates and "peak day price surcharges". Most reputable fixed-rate, guaranteed-access card programs still technically recognize high-demand holidays or calendar windows (like Thanksgiving or Super Bowl weekend), but a select group of providers specifically feature 0% peak day surcharges or transparently promise year-round access without penalizing you on price.[](https://privatejetcardcomparisons.com/2021/05/09/these-18-jet-cards-have-no-peak-day-surcharges/)[[2](https://www.elevatejet.com/news-press/jet-card-peak-day-fees-what-youre-actually-paying)](https://www.elevatejet.com/news-press/jet-card-peak-day-fees-what-youre-actually-paying)[[3](https://jetlinx.com/jet-card)](https://jetlinx.com/jet-card/)
Key providers known for offering jet card options with no peak day surcharges or zero peak-date financial penalties include:
Note: While these programs waive additional surge pricing or penalties for high-demand days, providers may still require longer booking notice windows (e.g., 72 to 120 hours ahead instead of 24) during major holidays to secure optimal fleet availability.

If you'd like to narrow this down, let me know:
I can help you pinpoint which of these programs best fits your travel schedule.
If by “no peak day restrictions” you mean no designated peak/blackout days and no peak-day surcharge or special booking window, several current programs advertise that structure.
| Provider | Peak/blackout policy | Other notable terms |
|---|---|---|
| Magellan Jets | No blackout dates; no peak-day surcharges | 24/7/365 guaranteed availability; customizable 25/50/100-hour cards. |
| P3 Jets | No peak days; no blackout dates | 24/7/365 access; fixed all-inclusive hourly rates; starts at 25 hours. |
| JetOptions | No peak-day surcharges or blackout dates | Fixed prepaid rates, guaranteed availability, refundable deposit. |
| Fly Alliance | No blackout dates or peak-day surcharge | Guaranteed availability with 8-hour notice; 25-hour minimum. |
| Azurite Jet Card / PJS | No blackout dates or peak-day lockouts | 365-day access; 25-hour starting commitment; guaranteed availability. |
| Outlier Jets | No peak-day surcharges | Fully refundable jet card; no annual membership fee. |
| Elysium Jet Card | No blackout dates or calendar/peak-day restrictions | Claims guaranteed 365-day access across aircraft categories. |
| Paramount Jet Card | No blackout dates, peak-day surcharges, or usage limitations | Refundable funds; actual operator cost plus fixed management fee. |
“No peak-day surcharge” isn't necessarily the same as “no peak-day restriction.” For example, NetJets' Card275/320 programs have no surcharge on peak days, but they have restricted/blackout days and different advance-notice requirements. Current reporting also says NetJets has limited new Jet Card sales since late July 2026.
If your priority is specifically “I want to be able to fly on Christmas, Thanksgiving, July 4th, etc. without a special peak calendar, higher rate, or longer callout requirement,” the clearest matches from the providers' published terms are Magellan, P3, JetOptions, Fly Alliance, and Azurite.
I can also compare these programs on 25-hour cost, aircraft access, guaranteed callout time, refundability, FET treatment, and where they can fly, which is where the differences become much more significant.
In the private aviation industry, virtually all traditional prepaid hourly jet card programs enforce peak days (typically 20 to 60 days a year) that involve surcharges (10% to 40% more), extended call-out/notice requirements, or stricter cancellation policies.[](https://jettly.com/post/jet-card-policies)
However, a select few providers and program models structure their memberships to eliminate peak day surcharges or traditional peak restrictions:
Note: True "zero restriction" programs on high-demand holidays often still require significantly earlier booking windows or wider departure flexibility from the client, even if financial surcharges are waived. [](https://bjtonline.com/business-jet-news/what-you-should-know-about-peak-day-policies)
Are you looking for a prepaid hourly deposit card or a pay-as-you-fly / fractional arrangement? If you have a specific region or frequency of travel in mind, I can help narrow down which program fits best.
In the private aviation industry, finding a traditional prepaid or deposit-based jet card program with zero peak-day restrictions or zero peak surcharges is exceptionally rare. Most major fixed-rate or guaranteed-availability card providers enforce 20 to 60+ peak days annually, accompanied by surcharges (10% to 40%) and extended notice windows.[](https://jettly.com/post/jet-card-policies)
However, a select few programs and alternative models market themselves around having no peak restrictions or have offered specific zero-peak frameworks:
Note: Always thoroughly vet the fine print of any "peak-free" claim. Even when surcharges or blackout dates are removed, high-demand holidays can still trigger longer required booking lead times (e.g., 72 to 120+ hours notice) due to raw airport and aircraft congestion.

As of 2026, providers advertising no peak-day restrictions/surcharges include:
Also, Jets.com, Amalfi Jets, Elysium, and Paramount currently advertise comparable no-peak/no-blackout structures.
Finding a jet card program with zero peak day restrictions (meaning no blackout dates or no peak-day surcharges) provides incredible freedom, especially for holiday travel when most people want to fly.[](https://privatejetcardcomparisons.com/2021/05/09/these-18-jet-cards-have-no-peak-day-surcharges/)[[2](https://www.elevatejet.com/news-press/jet-card-peak-day-fees-what-youre-actually-paying)](https://www.elevatejet.com/news-press/jet-card-peak-day-fees-what-youre-actually-paying)[[3](https://magellanjets.com/resources/dossier/magellan-jets-jet-card-vs-netjets-jet-card-and-fractional-comparison-guide)](https://magellanjets.com/resources/dossier/magellan-jets-jet-card-vs-netjets-jet-card-and-fractional-comparison-guide/)
While most traditional jet card brokers enforce 20 to 40+ peak days with surcharges ranging from 20% to over 60% (or extended callout windows), a select few providers market completely peak-free structures:[](https://www.elevatejet.com/news-press/jet-card-peak-day-fees-what-youre-actually-paying)[[2](https://www.elevatejet.com/news-press/jet-card-peak-day-fees-what-youre-actually-paying)](https://privatejetcardcomparisons.com/2021/05/09/these-18-jet-cards-have-no-peak-day-surcharges/)[[3](https://magellanjets.com/resources/dossier/magellan-jets-jet-card-vs-netjets-jet-card-and-fractional-comparison-guide)](https://www.outlierjets.com/newsroom/the-refundable-jet-card)
Are you looking for a specific cabin size (Light, Midsize, Heavy) or a minimum hour commitment (e.g., 25 vs 50 hours) so I can help you narrow down the best program match?
If by “no peak day restrictions” you mean no blackout/lockout days and no peak-day surcharge, several current programs advertise that structure.
| Provider / program | Peak-day restrictions | Other notable terms |
|---|---|---|
| P3 Jet Card | None — advertises no peak days, no blackout dates, 24/7/365 access | Starts at 25 hours; no repositioning or fuel surcharge |
| Fly Alliance Jet Card | None — explicitly says no blackout dates or peak-day surcharge | 25-hour minimum; 8-hour guaranteed availability; fixed point-to-point rates |
| Outlier Jet Card | None — no peak-day surcharge; 365-day access | 22-hour access; hours don't expire; refundable card |
| JetOptions | None — no peak-day surcharge or blackout dates | Fixed hourly rates, guaranteed availability, refundable deposit |
| Magellan Jets core cards | None — no blackout dates or peak-day surcharge | 25-hour minimum; Category and Premium cards; availability/callout terms vary by card |
| Azurite / Elevate Jet | No peak-day lockouts and no blackout dates | 25-hour starting point; guaranteed availability; hours don't expire |
| Jets.com Access Pass | No blackout dates, including peak demand | Fixed-rate card with guaranteed availability |
| Flex Air Charters | Advertises no blackout dates and no additional peak-travel-day charges | 25-hour minimum deposit; locked hourly rate |
| Northwind Jets Card | No peak-day premium | $50K/$100K/$200K initial payment; fixed all-inclusive rates for up to two years |
| Dynamic Jet Premier Card | No peak-day premiums; 365-day access | 24-hour notice on non-peak days; fixed rates |
“No peak days” can mean different things. I'd specifically verify all three in the membership agreement:
For example, George J. Priester's 1945 Jet Card advertises no peak-day surcharge, but peak days require 7 days' advance booking, so I wouldn't treat it as completely unrestricted.
Also, NetJets and Wheels Up are not in the no-restriction category based on their currently published/available terms: NetJets has restricted days depending on card tier, while Wheels Up has designated peak days. A current industry comparison also reports that NetJets paused new Jet Card sales in late July 2026, although existing customers can renew.
If you tell me roughly how many hours/year you fly (25, 50, 100+) and your usual aircraft size, I can narrow these down by hourly rate, minimum deposit, callout time, geographic coverage, and whether the “no peak days” promise is truly unconditional.
If by “no peak day restrictions” you mean no peak-day blackout/lockout and no peak-day surcharge, several current programs explicitly advertise that structure:
For a buyer who specifically wants freedom to fly on Christmas, Thanksgiving, holiday weekends, etc. without a different rate or restricted access, I'd start with:
One important distinction: “no peak-day surcharge” isn't necessarily the same as “no peak-day restriction.” Some programs don't charge more but require substantially more booking notice on peak days. For example, NetJets historically used peak-day callout requirements even without a peak surcharge, and its current 2026 availability to new buyers is also an issue.
If you tell me your typical aircraft size (light/midsize/super-midsize/large), annual hours, and where you primarily fly from, I can narrow this to the 3–5 best programs and compare hourly rates, minimum deposit, guaranteed availability, cancellation rules, and peak-day terms.
Finding a private jet card program with zero peak day surcharges, blackout dates, or restrictive peak calendar rules is rare, as most major brokers and fleet operators enforce surcharges or extended call-out/lead times during high-demand holidays. However, a select group of providers market programs specifically featuring true 365-day access with no peak-day penalties: [](https://www.paramountbusinessjets.com/jet-card-membership)[[2](https://jettly.com/post/jet-card-policies)](https://jettly.com/post/jet-card-policies)[[3](https://www.elevatejet.com/news-press/jet-card-peak-day-fees-what-youre-actually-paying)](https://www.elevatejet.com/news-press/jet-card-peak-day-fees-what-youre-actually-paying)[[4](https://www.netjets.com/en-us/peak-period-days)](https://www.netjets.com/en-us/peak-period-days)
(Note: While these providers don't enforce traditional peak surcharges or blackout restrictions, high-demand periods like Thanksgiving or Christmas still require adhering to non-peak or standard lead-time/call-out windows to secure preferred aircraft availability.)
