Corporations and individual aircraft owners employ chauffers whose vehicles happen to be airplanes ....
Jupp, and whats wrond with that ? Do airlines think better of their crews ? Appaerntly, one of the biggest employers in Europe (MOL) they donīt...

which are used mostly to gratify the egos of CEOs and owners.
Maybe. Our airplane is mainly used to meet schedules that you could not do using airlines. The board members do fly more hours on the airlines than we fly with the business jet, cause they use em whereever it makes sense.

Last year we did a 9 day trip that would have lasted 13 days using airlines.

So, our aircraft is a time saving tool, nothing more, nothing less. BTW the only options they bought was the smallest airshow, a coffeemashine and a satphone, otherwise our cabin is just seats and tables.
