About Us
private JET charters TO cargo.
Our Story.
JTU Jets was originally designed to be a normal private aviation charter brokerage. Naturally, the founders of JTU Jets began dabbling in private jet acquisition a while after starting their aviation company, they wanted to increase their private aviation knowledge whilst also learning the art of buying, selling, communication and problem solving directly from top private aviation brokers. When deals of $19,000,000+ started landing into their laps two weeks after joining the acquisition world, the founders then learned how important the role of an intermediary really is, connecting businesses to the right people - this was no joke and it gave the founders an understanding of the responsibility and maturity required for the private aviation world.
Whilst serving individuals through their original private jet charter business model, the founders learned that most luxury flyers opt for business or first class and frequent private jet flyers tend to just buy the jet (primarily for business purposes since that’s what jets are typically used for).
The founders decided to offer a membership plan to luxury flyers, offering them charter broker services at a one time fee rather than recurring expenses with hopes that their new approach would bring in more clients. However, the founders soon learned that luxury flyers would still rather fly business or first class and chartering a jet wasn’t a frequent occurrence and more of a ‘every now and then’ type of travel so their membership wasn’t as lucrative as they thought it would be.
They then attempted to collaborate with luxury hotels and luxury concierge groups for exposure to the the clientele that would benefit from their membership plan, but they were continually rejected.
After almost all hope was lost, the founders thought of their private jet acquisition days and how business to business services are more necessary and required. The founders decided to alter their membership plan and arrange transportation for businesses as a way to simplify costs for businesses and get rid of recurring transport expenses. However, it wasn’t a simple route. The founders originally decided to arrange transportation for perishable goods, since perishable goods require quick transportation thus air would be the best mode of transport for perishable goods export companies. After speaking with many perishable goods export companies and wholesalers, the founders quickly learned that these companies prefer using sea shipping and were not worried about quick transportation but transportation that would keep their margins very, very low. Moreover, the companies who did use air transport frequently were more enticed by produce buyer networking rather than arrangement of transportation, it became difficult for JTU Jets to communicate their services.
The founders did not want to give up on their membership plan, they knew what they designed for businesses was something that could really help businesses. The founders decided to change their focus away from perishable goods and focus instead on high value, time sensitive goods, after studying the cargo and the market demands. Upon doing this, the founders were met by businesses who truly appreciated and understood what JTU Jets is offering as an air cargo brokerage.
JTU Jets now continues to serve businesses who require air transport arranged for their high value, time critical goods.

Meet The Founders.
Hey! I’m Jasmeet Mangara.
Meet Jasmeet Mangara. Jasmeet co-founded JTU Jets, but what got her here?
Jasmeet first got a taste of the business world at age 12 when she went door to door alongside her sister to raise money for a dog charity. Although this lasted 1 day, it taught Jasmeet that not everybody will care about your cause or understand it. It taught her to get comfortable with being told no even if your cause is great, a lesson she carries with her today. Around 15, Jasmeet began working at her mums clinic for free during her school holidays taking a humbling position behind the reception, as a cleaner and helped with email marketing. It was here that Jasmeet learned about the world of client acquisition, service and relationships. The portfolio of clients Jasmeet was attending to ranged from Barristers, to Investment bankers to magazine Models, these clients had high demands and Jasmeet learned how to adapt, manage, communicate and solve problems quickly to align with client demands. At 16, inspired by her dad telling her off for exceeding her phone bill limit to £100 that month, Jasmeet wanted to find a way to make her own money so she could spend as much as she wanted (every kids dream). Everything is always innovative with Jasmeet so she decided to pitch products to manufacturing companies in Singapore. However, desires to attend law school took Jasmeet’s attention away from her entrepreneurial path so that’s where she headed next. Law school! Jasmeet finally achieved her academic goal and began studying law but it wasn’t enjoyable, she had so many entrepreneurial ideas she knew she had to take a bet on herself. After many business ideas had failed her, Jasmeet and her sister came across private aviation. JTU Jets originally started off as your regular private jet charter brokerage, handling requests from athletes and business professionals. JTU Jets then dabbled in private jet acquisition helping to secure $19,000,000 deals. Finally, a membership based freight brokerage for cargo is what JTU Jets has become. Beyond JTU Jets, Jasmeet is super into marine biology, archaeology and aerospace - fun fact, Jasmeet received her first telescope when she was around 8-ish. Her favourite show is Shark Tank USA (who doesn’t love Mr. Wonderful?)

Meet Jasjeet Mangara. Jasjeet grew up surrounded by business owners. From the age of 4 she saw her role models take on the world of entrepreneurship, she saw small businesses owned by those in her intimate circle rise to the top of their leagues. As she grew, she was nurtured into a person who is diligent, confident, ruthless, adapting and understanding. These qualities are exactly what JTU Jets needed. Jasjeet was truly equipped for the world of sales and leadership. Before JTU Jets, Jasjeet was looking to get into the membership business model herself, so she absolutely loved JTU Jets when her sister presented it to her. Jasjeet is an aviation specialist, she knows all about transporting air freight around the world. Jasjeet showed her dedication to JTU Jets when she was dealing with a $55,000,000+ acquisition deal day and night, bringing that same energy to JTU Jets members’ businesses. Private aviation can be challenging at times. Jasjeet chose this sector specifically because she wanted to be challenged. Jasjeet has always been interested in aviation; from the interior to the private jet itself, there is always something about aviation that piques her curiosity, since she travelled often at a young age. Beyond private aviation, Jasjeet is into reading and baking!
