Politicians and the general public are often quick to discount the value of business aviation to the nation’s economy. They take for granted that company personnel can easily meet customers, explore new markets and develop successful businesses. It is when airline schedules are unable to satisfy the demanding needs of business or when delays disrupt meeting plans that they begin to appreciate the benefits of traveling efficiently and using time effectively. Even then, business aviation often is overlooked, or at least under-appreciated, as a viable travel option.
