Not only do passengers avoid long security queues and crowded airports, but they can also enjoy the luxuries on board. The industry is reshaping itself with new business jets to keep up with growing demand.
Amenities vary plane to plane, with smaller business aircraft like Volaris’ HondaJet offering four large recliners and a small galley in the cabin.

Meanwhile, deep-pocket travellers who want even more luxury and sophistication can opt for larger aircraft with multiple living spaces, like VistaJet’s Bombardier Global 7500, which costs tens of thousands of dollars to charter.
