ETOPS For Dummies and NetJets

Hi, would someone be able to explain how (if at all) ETOPS affects air taxi, corporate and private flights?

For example a flight to the Caribbean, I guess if it was a Falcon 900 with 3 engines ETOPS doesn’t apply? What about twin jets that have the legs to make it one hit, say an GV or Global or maybe a Challenger 604 (would that make it one?

I am a bit ignorant about ETOPS, it wasn’t something that was explored to deeply at pilot scool and to be honest I didn’t ever think I would be flying anything that would need to comply.

Thanks in advance for any info.
