Is Private Travel an Option for the Everyday Traveler? - Fodor's
The era of social distancing produced a growing demand for what was once thought of as luxury travel experiences—private jets and private islands.
Travel-starved Americans are eager to island-hop this winter as travel destinations begin reopening their doors to tourists. What most travelers are not eager to do is shuffle through long airport security lines, wait to board planes in busy airport terminals, sit on overcrowded beaches, or stay at a large resort. The pandemic has forced travelers to rethink the safest way to travel and their conclusion? Private travel.
Hopping on a private jet to fly off to a secluded private island was once thought of as a luxury only experienced by the ultra-rich a la Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous, but during the past eight months, more everyday travelers are turning to the private travel industry in droves.
