BEST OF THE BEST

The elite, upper echelon of private aircraft are those that can fly farther and higher, with larger cabins and more space, and whose list prices tend to push into the high tens or even hundreds of millions. We are going to see some especially attractive new models of this class of aircraft in the near future.

You might expect that a pandemic would delay new aircraft production, and that we’d be facing a dearth of new planes to choose from for some time. But while some supply chains have been hampered and a few new aircraft are emerging a little later, there remain a number of exciting new jets on their way soon, in some cases just slightly later than first expected. And as more and more destinations open up to overseas arrivals, these high-performance, high-comfort jets really can’t come along soon enough.
