    You probably didn’t mean it, but your comment implies there are also necessary uses for private jets lol

      It’s hard to prove the blanket statement, “there are no good reasons to have a private jet.” But it’s easy to prove, “one overpaid person taking a private jet to commute 1000 miles is frivolous.”

      Easy arguement life saving supplies like organ donation or an expert surgeon. Harder argument world leaders like president. I don’t agree with that one presidents shouldn’t be above us.

        Emergency charter are not the same as a “personal jet used by CEO”, but I get what you’re saying.

        The core issue is really that the wasteful uses of this amazing technology (flight) far far far outnumber the useful ones.

        Its REDUCE, Reuse, and recycle.

        We need to reduce and eliminate wasteful consumption. Not throw useful tools out with the bath water (to butcher an analogy)
