Yes, I wasn't referring to this service in particular, but meant flying in private planes in general. The biggest problem with this company is that small planes don't get the economies of scale that larger aircraft get. They don't get reasonable seat costs per mile (the pilots cost the same flying 10 people vs. 100 people, you still need baggage handlers, etc.). The second you scale up to a larger plane, you're not giving the same level of service (you need security, have to corral more people, etc.).
There's a reason why Warren Buffett calls his jet "The Indefensible". There's no way you could ever rationalize the cost, other than flying private planes is freaking awesome.
