Many VP\CEO types make hundreds, if not thousands of dollars per hour. So is it more cost efficient to spend several hours on a business jet or an entire day on a commercial flight? Because let's face it, commercial travel isn't exactly time efficient. Not to mention being able to tailor flight time to busy schedules.
I know it's easy to think "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" when you see a business jet. But sometimes compared to the alternative, they're the more cost effective option.

If they weren't flying luxury motels clad in "Corinthian leather"(LOL!) people would probably not get so pissed. It's one thing to buy a small jet for business, and quite another to buy a flying Bentley.
