Financing helps Magellan Jets’ clients secure year-end advantages
With tailored financing solutions from NFS Capital, Magellan Jets is making it easier for clients to pursue fractional ownership before year-end, while maintaining flexibility and financial efficiency.

To support clients pursuing fractional shares and potential 2025 tax benefits, Massachusetts-based Magellan Jets is now offering financing through NFS Capital. Known for providing fast, flexible and asset-backed solutions, NFS Capital is an experienced and trusted independent equipment finance company serving the US and Canada.

Magellan’s fractional ownership programme gives qualified buyers the opportunity to access capital to acquire fractional shares. It addresses the time constraints of year-end transactions by offering up to 90 per cent financing, a simplified underwriting process and closings within just several business days. Terms and availability of financing are determined by NFS Capital and may vary based on individual circumstances. Prospective buyers should consult their financial and tax advisors to understand how this financing structure may apply to their individual situation.

Magellan Jets’ fractional owners hold a share in a fleet of private aircraft professionally crewed, maintained and managed by Slate Aviation, an operator of Bombardier Challenger 850 and VIP CRJ aircraft. The dedicated financing solutions from NFS Capital ensures a turnkey ownership experience built on safety, reliability and service.

“Our goal is to make aircraft ownership as seamless and rewarding as possible,” says founder and CEO Joshua Hebert. “With NFS Capital’s tailored financing solutions, we’re making it easier for clients to pursue fractional ownership before year-end, while maintaining flexibility and financial efficiency.”

Unique to the industry, Magellan Jets fractional owners can apply their allotted hours from their Challenger 850 share towards guaranteed access to the company’s Phenom 300, Challenger 350 and Gulfstream G450 jet card offerings at preferred rates.
