If anything, I'd see the current state of the air industry being in favour of what Boom promise - the [im?]practical concerns of the super-rich are vastly different to those of the rest of us.
- iancmceachern 6y agoI think the super rich would stick with private jets, no?
- mikepurvis 6y agoYeah, even if a private jet (whether owned or chartered) may not be as fast as this, it's going to be way less in terms of overall travel time in most cases, especially if it means you can fly out of non-busy regional airports closer to your origin and destination points.
- ceejayoz 6y agoAt the stated price point of $200M, this isn't out of reach for the super-rich. There are plenty of $100M+ privately owned jets around. (With some hilariously crazy features: https://www.greenpoint.com/747-8-aerolift/ https://www.greenpoint.com/747-8-aerolift/)
