Honda Jet priced lower than a regular luxury business private jet
When you hear of flying
on a private jet, what comes to your mind will be luxury, private business
meeting 5,000 feet above the sea level, no flight delays, faster transportation
among other luxury privileges.
The experience of flying on a Private Jet is
getting better as automobile company ‘Honda’ has built a very light jet which
has a maximum speed of 782 km/h (485 mph) and is built mainly for the American
market.
The jet cabin is very
small with a sitting capacity of four passengers with two seats facing each
other. The jet can be controlled by only one pilot however two pilots can
control the jet. The cabin sitting can be expanded to five while if only one
pilot is flying the jet, it can carry six passengers with a passenger sitting
at the cabin. The jet is equipped with a standard toilet and sink and a toilet
door which costs about $35,000.
The Honda Jet is not
like the typical private jet that has a passenger sitting capacity of 18
however it is built for short and fast business trips which will carry
passengers within a short destination in a short period of time instead of
going by road which will involve more time, as the saying goes time is money,
so this will cut down on the time spent for a transit like from New York to Los
Angeles.
The Honda Jet which was designed in Japan and developed in Greensboro North Carolina, USA is priced
at $4.8 million contrary to the private jet that Dangote uses, the Bombardier
Global Express 5000 which is priced at $50 million. This is the first private
jet to be offered at this price which is definitely a fair deal.
With the price that the
Honda Jet is offered at, this will mean that more people will soon start
acquiring and chartering private jets, which will boost the air transport
luxury industry.
With this new venture
into the jet industry by Honda, they are definitely breaking new grounds, and
it will not surprise us if Honda decides to start building commercial jets in
the nearest future.
