Private aviation is no longer limited to owning an aircraft. Travellers can choose from among several options—fractional ownership, on-demand charter, and jet cards—each designed for different needs. For those who want established access and pricing without taking on the responsibilities of ownership or arranging every trip from scratch, the jet card offers a thoughtful, structured alternative.
Sentient Jet created the Jet Card in 1999 to bring greater flexibility, predictability, and clarity to private aviation. More than 25 years later, the company continues to define the model through experienced people, disciplined processes, and active oversight before, during, and after each flight.
At its best, private aviation does more than get you there faster. It changes what is possible within a day, giving you greater control over when and how you travel while removing much of the complexity behind the journey. With Sentient Jet, time is not simply saved; it is thoughtfully managed. Here is how the Sentient Jet Card brings that idea to life.
Predictability
Each Sentient Jet Card includes 25 hours of flight time at an established hourly rate that is locked in for 12 months. The hours never expire, giving Card Owners a consistent framework for planning future travel.
Flexibility
Card Owners can select the aircraft category and departure timing that suit the trip, with options accommodating up to 12 passengers depending on the aircraft chosen. Quotes and flights can be managed through Sentient’s mobile app, Card Owner website, automated text-to-book feature, or with the help of a live expert.
Human Expertise
Behind every journey is a team of more than 130 private aviation professionals who absorb complexity, guide decisions, and provide around-the-clock support. The value is not simply access to an aircraft, but the confidence that experienced people are actively managing the details.
Trust by Design
Sentient’s proprietary Sentient Certified program individually reviews each operator, aircraft, pilot, and flight. This active safety oversight is designed to bring rigor and informed human judgment to every journey.
Greater Access
Private aviation can bring travellers closer to their destination through airports beyond major commercial routes, while private terminals can reduce the time spent navigating the airport experience. The result is greater control over both the journey and the time surrounding it.
Meaningful Access
Card Owner benefits extend the same thoughtful approach beyond the aircraft. Curated golf journeys, destination stays, and cultural experiences are selected to help Card Owners make more of their time once they arrive.
Sustainability
Since 2021, every flight flown by Sentient Jet Card Owners has been offset at 300 percent to account for both carbon dioxide and other aviation emissions, at no additional cost to Card Owners.
For travellers who value structure, control, and experienced support, the Sentient Jet Card offers a considered way to access private aviation. Sentient Jet’s distinction lies not only in having created the model, but also in possessing the human judgment and operational discipline required to deliver it well.

A New Chapter for The Ocean Club
Even in the rarefied world of luxury resort communities, The Ocean Club, Four Seasons Residences, Bahamas, stands out. The enclave will not only boast the top-notch service and amenities one has come to expect from a Four Seasons destination, but also sit right next to the legendary Ocean Club. The Ocean Club opened its doors in 1962 and promptly became the tropical playground of choice for such Hollywood royalty as Elvis, Zsa Zsa Gabor, and Frank Sinatra. Over the decades, the posh resort continued to attract a discerning clientele who sought privacy, and also all the trappings of five-star accommodations. In 2017, Four Seasons welcomed the storied property into its portfolio and committed to burnishing its legacy and ushering it into the future. The iconic address’s newest evolution: 67 luxury homes spread out over four oceanfront buildings, just steps from the illustrious Ocean Club. They present a rare opportunity to own a piece of Paradise Island—and Hollywood history.
Of course, a starry past isn’t the only thing that distinguishes The Ocean Club, Four Seasons Residences, Bahamas from other resort communities. Here are four unique ways this one has more to offer:
Turnkey Oceanfront Homes
Designed by global architecture firm 10 Design (formerly SB Architects), each of the 67 residences will feature expansive open-plan layouts, floor-to-ceiling windows, and generous private terraces that maximize ocean views and blur the line between indoors and outdoors. The New York–based firm Champalimaud Design is overseeing the interior design; the upscale Bahamian-style units will be delivered fully furnished, with custom finishes, refined material palettes, and spa-inspired bathrooms. Whether the owner keeps the residence solely for personal use or chooses to participate in the rental program, a dedicated Four Seasons team will be on hand to help with all aspects of home management for a true lock-and-leave lifestyle.
Private Rum Room
Recognizing that Four Seasons Private Residence owners have a fondness for the finer things, the developers are including a Rum Room for residents only, with private lockers for storing top-shelf bourbon, rum, and the like. Each resident will also receive a custom decanter for their spirit of choice. There will even be a humidor in the centre of the room for vending cigars. This elegant wood-lined space, tucked next to the library and lounge, will provide an intimate, quiet spot to enjoy a post-dinner nightcap with invited guests.
Residents-Only Amenities
The Ocean Club, Four Seasons Residences, Bahamas is designed to be a world unto itself. Need to hop on a business call? Head to the coworking space. Looking to get in a workout? Try the state-of-the-art fitness centre and perhaps follow with a massage at the spa. Kids feeling antsy? Take them to the children’s playroom or head to the family pool and clubhouse for an afternoon of swimming and sunning. (There’s also a breathtaking infinity pool with cabanas for a quieter adults-only experience.) At day’s end, choose from one of two residents-only beachfront restaurants.
The Ocean Club Resort Amenities
There’s no need to venture far for more dining and entertainment options. At the nearby fabled resort, residents will have access to a host of premium amenities, including a Tom Weiskopf–designed 18-hole golf course; pickleball, padel, and Har-Tru tennis courts; three pools; an outdoor gym; Versailles-inspired gardens; Balinese-style spa villas; and DUNE by Jean-Georges, the acclaimed chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s signature restaurant at The Ocean Club.
Purchase in 2026 to enjoy the highest value and exclusive privileges. To learn more about The Ocean Club, Four Seasons Residences, Bahamas, head here.
What Flower Are You?
“Each gem they showed me was like a friend, unique and unforgettable.” For Harry Winston, this wasn’t just a sentiment; it was the guiding philosophy of his eponymous luxury house. A son of jewellers, he possessed a preternatural gift for understanding that every stone, like every person, has its own allure, its own quirks, its own personality.
The same can be said of his floral-inspired collections. With nature as his muse, Winston designed iconic jewellry lines based on the forget-me-not, the sunflower, and the lily. While all three are all undeniably beguiling (who wouldn’t fall in love with diamonds rendered as blooms?), each channels a different aura. And the one you choose can say a lot about your personality.
Which collection speaks to you?
Forget-Me-Not Collection: For the Classic Romantic
Archival sketches from the 1960s inspired the Forget-Me-Not Collection of necklaces, pendants, rings, bracelets, and earrings evoking the petite wildflower. Each delicate bloom consists of pear-shaped and marquise-cut gemstones surrounding a round brilliant diamond, and is available with diamond, ruby, pink sapphire, or blue sapphire petals.
WHAT’S NEW This season, Harry Winston debuts pendants and earrings featuring forget-me-not pairs. These sweet twin posies are offered in pink sapphire and diamond, ruby and diamond, blue sapphire and diamond, and all-diamond variations.
Sunflower Collection: For the Timeless Sophisticate
Is there another flower as unabashedly joyful as the sunflower? Harry Winston’s Sunflower Collection tempers the showy bloom’s cheeriness with elegance and substance. Its most iconic iteration is arguably the graduated necklace with continuously linked flowers, each bloom a composition of eight accent diamonds encircling a larger round brilliant stone.
WHAT’S NEW To celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Sunflower Collection last year, Harry Winston introduced coloured gemstones to the traditionally all-diamond line. The centre stone is now also available in yellow diamond, pink sapphire, blue sapphire, and ruby.
Lily Cluster Collection: For the Chic Minimalist
A variation on the classic Winston Cluster motif of the 1940s, the Lily Cluster Collection highlights the graceful silhouette of the perennial flower. More abstract than the Sunflower and Forget-Me-Not designs, the Lily Cluster captures the flower’s essence rather than its literal form. Each piece is set in platinum, yellow gold, or rose gold and lined with round brilliant diamonds.
WHAT’S NEW In 2025, Harry Winston unveiled the Infinite Lily Cluster, a modern twist on the original Lily Cluster. The new design—available as a pendant, earrings, and ring—looks as fluid and nimble as a fluttering butterfly.

A Singular Vision: AHLEM’s New Design-Forward Atelier
AHLEM, the global luxury eyewear brand founded by French-born Ahlem Manai-Platt, recently opened a fifth boutique. And just as with its other locations—in Paris’s St. Germain, San Francisco’s Hayes Valley, New York City’s Nolita, and L.A.’s Venice—the latest atelier is housed in a space as relevant and chic as its eyewear. Designed to be the flagship, the new Melrose Place store offers a quiet oasis in buzzy West Hollywood.
AHLEM isn’t the typical eyewear brand (is there another that would namecheck Bauhaus as a guiding creative principle?)—nor is its newest boutique the average optical store. Eyeglasses rest on minimalist inset wall shelving with gallery-like lighting. And the store’s design, spearheaded by architect Maja Bernvill, was inspired by not one, but three rather high-brow source materials.
First is architect Hiroshi Sugimoto’s Odawara Art Foundation in Japan. When Manai-Platt visited the museum, she experienced, she says, “the absolute stillness—almost sacred—and the raw emotion” of walking through a suspended space between matter and light.
Second is Richard Serra’s masterpiece at LACMA, a curving monolith of Corten steel. “I wanted the Melrose space to offer that same emotional resonance: a quiet intensity, where architecture invites you to feel rather than simply see,” says Manai-Platt.
And third, and perhaps most significantly, is the influential work of Rudolph Schindler, the mid-century architecture great who, in many of his projects in L.A., elevated authentic, humble materials like wood, plaster, glass, and steel, all of which are spotlighted in AHLEM’s Melrose location. “This space is not about recreating Schindler, though,” says Bernvill, who was brought on to turn Manai-Platt’s heady ideas into concrete plans. “It’s about being in dialogue with his theories and the Californian context he worked in.”
“Ahlem and I share a belief in precision, restraint, and atmosphere, so the design becomes a kind of quiet choreography between form, light, and material,” says Bernvill.

With a speed capability of 15 mph and an incline range of –3 to 15 percent, the Ultra 1 is designed to provide full treadmill capabilities. Commercial-grade Progressive Reflex cushioning absorbs up to 52 percent of impact to protect your joints, and the decoupled deck design reduces vibrations for a smoother run. If you’re targeting a heart rate zone, simply connect your Bluetooth heart rate monitor or wearable, and the Ultra 1’s ActivePulse feature will modulate the workout intensity to keep you in your desired training zone.
The first-in-class treadmill comes with a free one-month membership to iFIT Pro, with access to an expansive library of more than 10,000 trainer-led video workouts from around the world, including a HIIT class set among the stunning red rocks of Sedona, a 10K training series in the Balkans, and a hike to Mt. Everest base camp. Strength training, Pilates, yoga and other studio offerings are also available on the platform. Another premium perk: You’ll be able to enlist iFIT’s new AI Coach, a virtual personal trainer that creates customized training regimens based on your individual goals.
