Key reading

Private Aviation · London · AI Overview · Sep 28 – Oct 4, 2026

jettly.com holds the rank-1 position in the period-wide AI opening-control ranking at 10.92%, but the 9 sources behind jettly.com range from 10.34% down to 4.60% — a spread of 6.32 percentage points from top to bottom. The top 3 actors together hold less than the remaining 7 combined, confirming that opening share is dispersed rather than concentrated at the top. Across the 7-run window, the London private aviation market is fully open on this observed AI Overview surface — no actor has secured established authority on this opening-control rail. 7 of the 10 actors on the panel opened AI answers in all 7 comparable runs; 3 opened AI answers in fewer runs.

Pattern on the observed surface

Private Aviation · London · AI Overview · Sep 28 – Oct 4, 2026

The panel is structurally flat

The panel is structurally flat. The top 3 actors together hold less than the remaining 7 combined, and the 9 sources behind jettly.com range from 10.34% down to 4.60%. The upper tier — jettly.com, PrivateFly, accaviation.com — sits in a narrow cluster, while a visible gap separates the mid-panel niche domains from the lower tier of social platforms and smaller actors. Two general-purpose platforms — youtube.com and facebook.com — appear alongside niche domains, giving the surface a mixed composition rather than a specialist-only profile. 7 of the 10 actors on the panel opened AI answers in all 7 comparable runs; 3 opened AI answers in fewer runs.

Why this reading matters

Private Aviation · London · AI Overview · Sep 28 – Oct 4, 2026

jettly.com holds the rank-1 position in the period-wide ranking, yet its lead over PrivateFly is 0.57 percentage points — narrow enough that the opening-control surface reads as a contested space rather than a settled hierarchy. The presence of two social platforms (facebook.com and instagram.com) alongside focused aviation domains signals that AI Overview opening behavior on this market draws from a broader source mix than a specialist-only reading would suggest.

Market implication

Private Aviation · London · AI Overview · Sep 28 – Oct 4, 2026

Across the 7-run window, the London private aviation market is fully open on this AI Overview opening-control surface — no actor has secured established authority on this observed rail. The structural flatness of the panel, combined with the narrow gap between the rank-1 and rank-2 actors, suggests that monitoring this surface requires attention to the full governed panel rather than a single reference source.

FAQ

What does 'AI opening share' measure?
AI opening share measures which actor is cited at the very opening of an AI Overview answer — the source AI reaches for first when constructing its response. It is distinct from general citation share, which counts all citations regardless of position.
Does this card prove a longer-term trend in AI opening behavior?
No. This observation covers an observation period of 7 comparable scheduled runs (September 28 – October 4, 2026). AI Overview opening behavior is volatile across queries, models, and dates. This observation does not establish a longer-term trend.
Why do facebook.com and instagram.com record the same AI opening share but hold different ranks?
Both record 4.98% AI opening share on this market. The governed ranking applies a deterministic tie-break to assign distinct positions (#7 and #8). They are tied on the metric value but not on the governed rank.
