Three Continents Connected
Jetsmarter, a private jet provider have recently launched their new long haul shuttle flight between London and Dubai. This flight also connects with existing New York to London shuttle, making a member can practically fly from New York to Dubai via London across 3 continents!
I purchased my Jetsmarter membership earlier in last summer and it has proven to be the best investment I've ever made! Currently, the membership fee cost $13,500 per year plus a one time joining fee. Once you joined, you can take full advantage of flying private jet between key cities in North America, Europe and Middle East as often as you like. For those who flies every week, I'd say it is a no brainer money saving investment!
My journey started out in London Luton Airport at Harrods Aviation FBO. The FBO is like a business class airline lounge, with good view of the apron. There are the usual snacks and beverage on offer as would an airline Business Class lounge.

Boarding the Gulfstream IV
With no security lines for screening, within minutes I am out on the apron and ready to board the gorgeous golden looking Gulfstream IV.
Before takeoff, I asked the pilots whether I can join them in the flight deck as an observer. It was not a problem! Obviously a perk when flying private!
We also have a dedicated flight attendant serving us food/drink and taking care of us.

Conclusion
I never thought I could afford to fly on a Gulfstream long haul from London to Dubai!
In many ways, it is different to commercial flying. You arrive at your own pace just a few minutes ahead of the flight, you feel completely relaxed like at home during the flight. You receive the utmost attention and care. During the flight, it present you unrivaled networking opportunity to meet other creative mindsets. Within a few minute of arrival, you're in a limo going home/hotel. No security lines, no passport queues! It is a whole different game compare than flying commercial flight. However, the catering standard varies. I still love the airline first class multi-course meal indulgence!
