Transcripts

Catch the clash: Prompt: “Schedule N519SD from KPHX to KAPA on Wednesday, November 4 at 8am Phoenix time, Jamie Cole as PIC.” The card shows KPHX → KAPA, aircraft N519SD, departs Nov 4, 2026 at 8:00 AM MST, PIC Jamie Cole. Checked: Found 1 aircraft conflict and 1 crew conflict. Prompt: “Make it Thursday, November 5 at 8 instead.” The new card shows Nov 5, 2026 at 8:00 AM MST. Checked: No aircraft or crew conflicts. Worked out: Read as 08:00 MST at KPHX — you said “Phoenix time” earlier. Assumed: nothing. Confirm. “Trip #659 created — N519SD.”

Move it: The Schedule shows #645, KPHX → KSAN on N519SD, at 7:30 AM MST. Prompt: “Move my KPHX to KSAN trip on October 27 to 10:30 Phoenix time.” The card shows #645 · KPHX → KSAN, departure Tue, Oct 27 07:30 MST struck through and replaced by Tue, Oct 27 10:30 MST at KPHX. Checked: 2 crew on this trip. Checked: No aircraft or crew conflicts at the new time. Confirm. “Trip #645 updated — departure now Tue, Oct 27 10:30 MST at KPHX.” The Schedule now shows #645 at 10:30 AM MST.

The short answer

  1. What is JetInsight?

    JetInsight runs a charter trip as one lifecycle, from quote to release to invoice and reconciliation, with built-in trip checklists. Its demo request covers charter (Part 135) and private (Part 91) operations and brokers (checked October 2026).

  2. Does Sky Duty quote charter trips or check duty limits?

    No. Quoting stays with the tool you sell charter with: Sky Duty does not quote trips, connect to the Avinode marketplace or keep a general ledger. It records flight time from the logbook and trip times from the schedule, and it does not make duty or rest determinations. Keep the tool you use for that.

    Sky Duty runs the operation that flies the trip instead, as flight department software: the schedule, the logbook, maintenance and each trip’s expenses.

  3. Which one fits my operation?

Why this comparison matters

JetInsight and Sky Duty both serve charter operators, from different sides: JetInsight runs each trip from quote to release to invoice, and Sky Duty runs the operation that flies it.

JetInsight builds the operator’s account, trains each department, and integrates with other systems from sales and marketing to maintenance and accounting.

If your charter sells, releases and bills every trip through one system, JetInsight is built for that.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is Sky Duty a good JetInsight alternative?
For a small charter fleet or a Part 91 department that does not need quoting, release and charter payments in one system, it can be. Sky Duty is a native iPhone and iPad app with scheduling, logbook, maintenance and expenses at $39 per aircraft per month with unlimited users. JetInsight runs each charter trip from quote to invoice, so an operator that sells and bills every trip through one system may be better served there.
How much does JetInsight cost?
JetInsight does not publish a price. Its site has no pricing page and asks you to schedule a demo (checked October 2026). Sky Duty publishes its price: $39 per aircraft per month, or $429 per aircraft per year (one month free), with unlimited users, so 3 aircraft = $117/month or $1,287/year. You sign up yourself in the app, with no quote process or sales call.
Does JetInsight have a free trial?
JetInsight publishes no trial terms; its site offers a demo (checked October 2026). Sky Duty’s trial is one you start in the app, free for 14 days with up to 2 aircraft. No card needed to start, and nothing is charged when the trial ends.
Is there a JetInsight app for iPhone and iPad?
Yes, for flight crews: JetInsight has an iOS and iPadOS crew app with access in the cockpit when there is no connection, and the platform itself runs in a web browser on any phone, tablet or computer (checked October 2026). Sky Duty is a native iPhone and iPad app: the schedule, logbook, expenses, squawks and maintenance records work on the device with no signal and sync when you reconnect, while weather, tail lookup, multi-leg trips and the AI assistant need a connection.
Can I switch from JetInsight to Sky Duty?
Yes, if your operation does not depend on quoting, release and charter payments in one system. Download the app, add your tail numbers, and Sky Duty pulls each aircraft from the FAA registry; import your logbook from CSV and invite the whole team. The trial takes up to 2 aircraft, and you add the rest when you subscribe.
