New first class air travel – monthly subscription of $1750 gets you a private jet

A new concept is gradually emerging in first class air travel for the moneyed – it is subscription-based airline memberships with new and upcoming companies that guarantee a private jet for as little as a monthly subscription of $1750.
This has been reported in dailymail.co.uk dated 21 May 2015.

While commercial airlines are always trying to pamper to those who travel first class and want nothing but the best, this new trend could be a game changer. The airlines offer special suites to incredible perks but, this new concept could be a competition of sorts.
Wealthy travelers, who do not belong to the category of those who own their own jets, the convenience and stress-free travel experience of subscriptions are worth it.
The advantages are many. The private jet can be booked online as is done for hotels and it can be to the time best suited to the traveler and the client can come from his driveway to the aircraft within an hour.
Then there is the factor of economy – irrespective of the number of passengers, the subscription is the same. Same for the number of flights in the month which can be more than one.
Moreover, private aircraft can access far more airports than scheduled airlines, thereby busy travelers can make use of airfields closer to home. And, of course, he can choose his own on-board catering. (Image courtesy wikimediacommons.org)
