Four Seasons announced its Private Jet experience in 2015. It appears the sky and the sea are no longer the limit for wealthy travelers for whom, to quote Jessie J, it's not about the money money money. The luxury portfolio with 34 resorts, hotels and private residences just announced its new Aman Private Jet. Unlike the Four Seasons jet (and a new custom Airbus A321neo launches in 2021), which has set itineraries and room for 40 plus guests, the Aman Private Jet is more akin to a charter, with a 12-person maximum. A Private Jet Concierge will handle every detail of the journey, be it a family escape or a corporate retreat.
