The reasons for a corporate executive to use the company jet—including safety, security, and privacy—haven’t changed.
The reasons for a corporate executive to use the company jet—including safety, security, and privacy—haven’t changed. In today’s world, though, those reasons are more important than ever before.
While corporate aircraft have been much maligned over the years, the simple fact is that executives use them for the same reasons many people drive a car to work instead of taking a bus: they provide safe, reliable, flexible, and secure transportation.
Key executives can go where they want, when they want, and work in total privacy along the way. In today’s world, those benefits are more important than ever before. In fact, it’s increasingly common for companies to direct their top executives to use the corporate aircraft for safety and security, according to Alan Goldstein, a past chairman of the NBAA Tax Committee and a special advisor to Flight Department Solutions.
