“My son, happiness is made of small things: a small yacht, a small mansion, a small fortune.” To this hilarious quote from Groucho Marx we could also add “a small plane;” there is no more comfortable way to travel than on a private jet.
In the case of the Basque Country, the BASQUE LUXURY PRIVATE JET air service is in charge of linking the region with the rest of Europe and North Africa quickly and directly. The company’s jet is a Citation Excel made in the USA by Cessna, with a cruising speed of 802 km/h and a range of four and a half hours (reaching up to 3,056 km).
The inside of the cabin is pure comfort, featuring fine wood and leather finishes: it has a length of 5.67 m, a width of 1.68 m, a height of 1.75 m, and seating for eight passengers. The seats rotate to create a club or meeting area. The jet has a bathroom and a large cargo hold to store luggage – there is even room to transport surfboards, golf clubs, and skis. Passengers have digital screens with an entertainment system and can use a satellite telephone during flight. In addition, those who are interested in this service can have a flight attendant on hand to assist passengers.
The BASQUE LUXURY PRIVATE JET air service is designed for both individuals and companies and based out of the Vitoria-Gasteiz Foronda Airport, as this is the only airport in the Basque Country that operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The hiring of the plane also includes the management of transfer services to and from the airports and an onboard catering service that can be customized to the client’s liking.
Getting back to film references, this brings to mind the character of reporter Virginia Vallejo in “Loving Pablo,” played by Penélope Cruz (a lover of the Basque Country), who said, “If you are going to cry over a man, better in a private jet than on a bus.” Happy flying.
