Suggestions welcome for improving Draft:JETRON

edit

Hello everyone,

I would greatly appreciate any feedback or suggestions to help improve this draft article.

I've done my best to remove any explicitly promotional content from the History paragraph, but I’m of course open to further discussion to ensure the tone and neutrality meet Wikipedia's standards.

JETRON is a European company involved in private jet sales and services, with a growing presence in the business aviation sector.

If anyone is interested in helping, thank you in advance for your time and input!

Summary of Additional References Added to Draft Article

edit

Hello everyone,

Following the second comment I received, I’d like to provide a summary of each additional reference I’ve added to the draft article. As with other significant media outlets, some valuable content is not freely accessible these days :(. If needed, I can provide administrators with PDF screenshots of the articles that are online but behind a paywall.

1. Previously added reference from Hospodářské noviny: "[1]"

Hospodářské noviny – “Wealthy Czechs’ Interest in Private Jets Soars; Aircraft Sell Immediately” (9 Feb 2022)

The Czech business daily reports on a sharp increase in demand for private jets, both new and pre-owned, in the Czech and Slovak markets as part of a global surge. Marián Jančarík, CEO of Jetron, notes that supply is so tight that any aircraft entering the market sells almost immediately, and that the region’s base includes 79 jets and 58 turboprops.

The article details the number of transactions (21 in 2021), the growing role of private flights due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and how restrictions on commercial routes have driven new clients toward business aviation. It also covers factors attracting wealthy buyers — strong financial markets, rising asset values, and changing demographics — and provides price ranges for different aircraft models. Jetron’s role as a specialist in brokerage and advisory services for private aviation is highlighted within this broader market context.

2. New reference from e15: "[2]"

E15 – “Private Jets See Sharp Price Increases; Buyers Wait Two Years, Investors Still Expanding Fleets” (21 Feb 2022)

The Czech business daily reports on record demand for private jets, with delivery times for new aircraft extending up to two years and steep price increases for both new and pre-owned models. Marián Jančarík, CEO of Jetron, notes that wait times have risen from the previous six–nine months to the current two years, causing significant appreciation in the value of used jets. Jetron, which advises on aircraft purchases and sales, sees around 20 transactions annually in the Czech and Slovak markets.

The article places Jetron’s insights within broader market trends, including fleet expansions by regional operators, the impact of limited supply on pricing, and parallels to the pre-2008 boom. Jetron’s market data is cited to illustrate price changes — with average ten-year-old jets rising from USD 5 million pre-pandemic to USD 9 million — and to explain how manufacturers are deliberately avoiding overproduction.

3. New reference from e15: "[3]"

E15 – “Billionaires Clean Out the Used Bizjet Market; Supply Was Broader Even at the End of the Cold War” (22 Mar 2022)

The Czech business daily reports on unprecedented scarcity in the global market for pre-owned business jets, with only 2.4–3% of the world’s 25,000 active jets available for sale — the lowest share since records began in 1986. Jetron, a brokerage and advisory firm in the private aviation sector, is cited as the data source. CEO Marián Jančarík notes that nearly 3,000 pre-owned jets were sold globally in 2021, around 50% more than in pre-pandemic years, driven by health concerns, disrupted airline services, and new entrants to private aviation.

The article details regional market trends, including record European transaction levels, strong demand in Germany and Malta, and rapid price increases — with ten-year-old jets rising from USD 5 million pre-pandemic to almost USD 9 million. It also notes manufacturers’ caution about ramping up production and lists new and discontinued aircraft models. Jetron’s market data and commentary are used to frame the analysis of this historic shift in supply and demand dynamics.

4. New reference from Transport.sk: "[4]"

Transport.sk – “Growing Demand for Business Jets” (8 May 2022)

The Slovak transport industry magazine reports on the rising popularity of private business jets in Central Europe, describing ownership models, charter pricing, and the appeal of luxury and flexibility. The article outlines the market for both new and pre-owned jets, noting that only one in four purchased aircraft is new due to high prices, and highlighting recent model launches.

Marián Jančarík, CEO of Jetron, a Bratislava-based brokerage specializing in business jet sales and purchases, is quoted stating that the previous year saw a record 2,964 aircraft sold globally — the highest in industry history. He comments on the dynamic nature of the market in Slovakia, where several operators have exited and fleet ownership has shifted between companies.

If anyone is interested in helping or has any questions, please feel free to reach out, and I’ll be happy to respond.
