Terms of Service

By accessing or using the LeapJet website located at www.leapjet.org (the “Platform”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree, you may not use the Platform. LeapJet reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Platform after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

LeapJet (“Company,” “we,” “us”) operates a technology marketplace that connects consumers with FAA-certified Part 135 air carriers and charter operators (“Operators”). LeapJet is not an air carrier, does not hold an FAA Part 135 certificate, and does not operate, maintain, or crew any aircraft.

All flights displayed on the Platform are operated solely by independent third-party Operators. LeapJet’s role is limited to facilitating introductions between customers and Operators through its technology platform.

Unless separately disclosed in writing, LeapJet does not act as a charter broker, air carrier, indirect air carrier, or ticket agent as defined under 14 CFR Part 295 or any other applicable federal regulation. LeapJet is a technology marketplace only. Any brokerage arrangement, if applicable, will be separately disclosed to the customer prior to booking and will be governed by a separate written agreement.

You must be at least 18 years of age and capable of entering into a binding legal agreement to use the Platform. By using the Platform you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.

LeapJet displays empty leg flights and charter availability submitted by Operators. When you submit a booking request through the Platform, LeapJet forwards your inquiry to the relevant Operator. If the Operator accepts your request, you enter into a direct contract with the Operator—not with LeapJet.

LeapJet does not guarantee the availability, pricing, aircraft type, scheduling, or any other aspect of flights listed on the Platform. Empty leg flights are by nature subject to change or cancellation if the underlying charter itinerary is modified by the primary charterer.

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.

LeapJet does not warrant that the Platform will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, or that any information displayed is accurate or complete. Flight details including price, aircraft type, route, and schedule are provided by Operators and may change without notice.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LEAPJET, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND AFFILIATES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM OR ANY FLIGHT BOOKED THROUGH IT.

LEAPJET IS NOT LIABLE FOR FLIGHT DELAYS, CANCELLATIONS, DIVERSIONS, MECHANICAL ISSUES, PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH, PROPERTY DAMAGE, OR ANY ACT OR OMISSION OF ANY OPERATOR, CREW MEMBER, OR THIRD PARTY.

IN NO EVENT SHALL LEAPJET’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO LEAPJET (NOT THE OPERATOR) IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100), WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless LeapJet, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and affiliates from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Platform; (b) your breach of these Terms; (c) your interaction with any Operator; or (d) any violation of applicable law or regulation by you.

Because LeapJet is a marketplace and not a contracting carrier, cancellation and refund policies are determined by the Operator you book with. LeapJet is not responsible for issuing refunds for flights, and any disputes regarding refunds must be resolved directly with the Operator.

Empty Leg Flight Policy

Empty leg flights are repositioning flights that exist because an aircraft must travel to another location for a previously scheduled charter. Due to their nature, empty leg flights are subject to change or cancellation if the underlying charter itinerary is modified by the operator or original charterer.

If the primary charter flight that created the empty leg is modified, rescheduled, or cancelled, the associated empty leg flight may also be cancelled or adjusted without prior notice. In the event of an operator-initiated cancellation due to a change in the primary charter schedule, the passenger shall receive a full refund of the amount paid for the empty leg flight. LeapJet shall not be responsible for arranging alternative transportation unless otherwise agreed in writing.

By booking an empty leg flight through the Platform, you acknowledge and accept that empty leg flights carry a higher risk of schedule change or cancellation than standard private charter flights. You voluntarily assume this risk as a condition of booking.

LeapJet acts solely as a technology platform connecting passengers with independent FAA-certified Part 135 operators. The Operator is solely responsible for the operation of the flight and the performance of the charter agreement. LeapJet shall have no liability for any cancellation, modification, or delay of an empty leg flight.

You agree not to:

• Scrape, crawl, or use automated tools (bots, spiders) to access or extract data from the Platform.
• Circumvent, bypass, or attempt to avoid any fees, commissions, or charges owed to LeapJet.
• Contact Operators listed on the Platform for the purpose of booking directly and avoiding LeapJet’s marketplace.
• Reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from Platform content without written permission.
• Use the Platform for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable law or regulation.
• Interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Platform.
• Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity.

All content on the Platform—including text, graphics, logos, images, software, and the LeapJet brand identity—is the exclusive property of LeapJet or its licensors and is protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may not use, reproduce, or distribute any Platform content without prior written consent from LeapJet.

Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Platform shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall take place in Los Angeles County, California.

YOU AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. You waive any right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration against LeapJet.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, LeapJet may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement of its intellectual property rights.

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any legal action not subject to arbitration shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California.

The Platform may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by LeapJet. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the remaining Terms remain in full force and effect.

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and LeapJet regarding your use of the Platform and supersede all prior agreements and understandings.
