There are legitimate reasons for private jets to exist, though the list is admittedly small.
The ability to transport lifesaving medications and things like organs long distances as fast as possible comes to mind.
There isn’t much reason for individuals to travel on private jets in non emergency scenarios though
Transporting organs doesn’t happen on Private Jets, helicopters and courier craft typically do the job. It’s also now well within the possibility for medium sized drones to be able to rapdily move something the size of an organ container reliably long distance, faster and more efficient than a jet can load, fuel, taxi, land and unload.
Private Jets are just luxury items of the rich, and are the carbon equivalent of burning down small forests or power a small town with coal burning. There is nothing they do that can’t be done more efficiently by a drone or helicopter for a fraction of the emissions.
What helicopters and drones are flying over the ocean, across Europe, Africa and North America?
And what is a ‘courier craft’ do you mean a private airplane?
Private != Billionaire owned, it means a privately owned plane that flies general aviation (non FAR 121)
Transferring organs absolutely happens in private jets.
I think you might just not know what the term ‘private jet’ means.
