    It found almost half the jets travelled less than 500km and 900,000 were used “like taxis” for trips of less than 50km.

    Less than 50 kilometres. With a jet. Let that level of misanthropic assholery sink in.

      I drive 130-160km(depending what route I take) a day getting to and from work 5 days a week. It’s about 2hrs driving time daily. £70 of fuel a week roughly. The fact that these people are spending probably just as much time, and magnitudes more money to go the same distance… seems like an angry mob and a BBQ could solve this problem…

        Anything can be an airport if you are suicidal rich enough.

        A lot of major cities will have a lot of smaller general aviation airports next to each other.
