Who pays for engine-program fees and how does Craft Pod cover surprise maintenance costs?

Craft Pod enrolls every jet in a manufacturer-approved engine and APU program, and the hourly premiums for those programs are already embedded in the occupied-hour rate you pay, so each flight quietly builds the balance for future overhauls. A dedicated maintenance reserve—funded by those hourly premiums, by the working-capital cash you wired at subscription, and, if needed, by short-term loans secured by the aircraft—stands ready for any cost that falls outside the programs. Because the reserve and credit line cover the bill, members should never face surprise maintenance invoices.
