The Benefits of Aircraft Financing 

Owning a private plane or jet provides a wealth of benefits and opportunities, but paying for such a significant purchase may be a challenge.

Even if you have the liquidity to pay for a new aircraft in cash, it can be risky to disrupt your current investment portfolio or tie up so much of your financial resources into a single asset.

Aircraft loans can be a safer and more beneficial option for financing your plane or jet purchase compared to paying in cash. Aircraft financing typically may provide several significant benefits to individuals or businesses interested in purchasing a new plane or jet, including the following:

  • Potentially manageable monthly payments
  • Fixed interest rates
  • Freeing up available capital for other needs and expenses
  • Avoid depleting investment portfolios
  • Potential tax benefits for asset depreciation (Consult a tax advisor regarding your specific situation) 

Aircraft financing may be the best choice for securing the funds needed for your aircraft purchase, but it is important to choose the right bank for your specific financing needs. 

Why Banks Are Ideal for Financing an Aircraft Purchase

When you partner with a bank for your aircraft lending needs, you should gain access to the professionalism and lending expertise needed to navigate the aviation loan process successfully.

Other non-traditional lenders may lack resources, or they may not understand the unique financing needs of an individual or business interested in aircraft purchases.

Unlike online lenders or other financiers in the airline industry, banks typically have the strong financial backing, efficiency, and resources needed to review, approve, and fund aircraft loans. In other words, borrowers may  typically experience an expedited loan process.

Banks are also usually able to establish and build strong relationships with borrowers to ensure a smooth lending experience. Simply put, we work hard to understand the needs and goals of borrowers, then we have the ability to execute a loan program for qualified borrowers.
