Should You Compare Private Jet Costs to First Class? Here’s What to Know Before You Travel from the West Coast to Paris
Planning a summer getaway to Paris? If you’re considering flying privately—or even if you’re just exploring First or Business Class on a commercial airline—it’s worth comparing all your options. At Vegas Express Jet, our Charter and Travel Team specializes in helping clients make smart, informed decisions for overseas travel.
✈️ Private Jet vs. First Class: What’s the Real Cost?
When booking a single First Class seat on Air France, British Airways, or other premium carriers, you can expect prices ranging from $15,380 to $18,700 for a round-trip, one-week summer stay in Paris.
By contrast, the cost to charter a Gulfstream 550 or similar long-range private jet for the same journey ranges between $300,000 and $400,000. That said, a G550 can accommodate up to 14 passengers. When shared among your group, the cost per seat averages around $25,000—including full privacy, direct flights, and personalized in-flight service.
💼 When Does Flying Commercial Make More Sense?
While private jet travel offers unmatched flexibility and luxury, commercial First or Business Class flights may offer significant savings, especially for solo travelers or couples. That’s why Vegas Express Jet offers both private jet and commercial flight options—so you can compare and decide what works best for your journey and budget.
