Yes, the meals cost
more than an hour of flight
time.
In addition, they'll host
preflight cocktail parties for
you and your friends.
But maybe the biggest luxury of
all.
We depart on time or the
designated time of the
passenger.
We don't have the transportation
security issues that you deal
with at an airport.
You come to the aircraft.
We are ready for you.
Your bags on board before you
get here and we take off and
treat you like a first class
passenger that you are.
No baggage, a sky
in the sky.
All in a palace flying six miles
above the earth.
Not a bad way to fly.
Coming up, would you allow this
on your fantasy flight?
During the flight, one of the
kids took out the hockey stick
and started to beat on the
lavatory door.
We'll tell you who
did.
Later, what really happens when
they take the fantasy flight?
Find out when we return.
Five-star hotel
service.
You got to love it.
But what if you could get that
same service several miles up in
the air?
When you can award a fantasy
flight, that's just what you
get.
There are a couple of benefit
that is go with flying on a
private jet.
Anonymity.
To go where you would like to go
without anybody else knowing ..
from a standpoint of luxury,
most of the aircraft nowadays
are equipped with satellite
television.
Satellite phones.
Dvd players.
High speed internet.
Playstations.
Beds that have 700 thread count
sheets and feather pillows with
cashmere blankets.
Those are the types of things
our customers are asking for.
The real high end luxury items
they can buy in the stores vane
in their car they can have on
their private jets.
You have to be rich
to have this kind of high flying
pampering.
Well, not just rich.
You have to be very, very rich.
But if you don't want to fork
over the $40 million that it
costs to own the big ones, you
timeshare.
And you'll be surprised at who
does.
Our clients are the
billionaires of los angeles, the
established producers, directors
and actors.
The real a-list people that fly
with us.
For these a-listers
it is like joining that you are
own private, flying club without
the hassles of maintenance.
Buying a fractional share in
an aircraft has a lot of upfront
cost that is are involved.
In order to buy a quart share of
a gulf stream four, our upfront
costs are upwards of $10 to $12
million and then you would have
a monthly management fee and
then an occupied hourly rate.
So, it's very similar to charter
where you would call and
schedule your flights when you
want to fly on the aircraft but
now you're actually sharing
ownership with other
individuals.
But joining this
air club doesn't come cheap.
They spend $500,000 and $2
million a year with us.
It breaks down to hourly price
somewhere between 5 and $6,000
an hour.
We have seen
penthouses that cost 5,000 or
$10,000 a night.
But $5,000 an hour for a flight?
Now, that's rich.
We had to ask.
What do these wealthy fliers get
for the price?
Number one, let's check out the
aircraft.
We chose the gulf streams
because they're the safest, most
reliable aircraft built.
The gulf stream five is probably
the finest aircraft in the sky
including airliners.
This is one of the largest
private jets, flying the fastest
and highest.
I marvel at it.
I get a throttle pushing the
throttles forward for air
takeoff.
They make sure it's
ready any time you want it.
With the limited client base
in the program, we can have an
airplane ready in 45 minutes.
We can have an airplane
available any time day or night.
But is it really worth $2
million a year?
Time to dig a little deeper.
This jet comes as a car dealer
might say fully loaded.
Included in the price, how about
a private chef?
