Tax Implications for Fractional Jet Owners

Fractional jet ownership offers convenience and cost-sharing benefits but comes with complex tax implications. Owners can claim deductions for business-related expenses, benefit from depreciation, and potentially use bonus depreciation for tax savings, provided the jet is primarily used for business purposes.
