Which country has the most private jet flights? — 2026-08-20
AVI-GO SkyPulse data shows that the United States has the most private jet flights, with 81,394 departures over the trailing 14 days through 2026-08-20, an average of about 5,814 departures a day.
Business jets are also called private jets. These figures count business jets only — turboprops and piston aircraft are excluded, as is scheduled airline traffic; the same basis is used in AVI-GO's monthly reports. Movements count departures plus arrivals, while departures count only outbound flights. These are general-aviation / FBO-served operations.
