Is Buying A Private Jet Company A Good Idea Now?

[ukanonymous]

So as we are told that going on holiday is illegal now and we will not be able to travel and expect lockdowns in the next 10 years. Well would it be a good idea to buy a private jet company like Bill gates just did?
I mean we know all the rich people are exempt from covid rules so tv presenters, sports stars etc will still be able to travel.
Is it good business sense to buy it though

Sorry for my ignorance, but where did you get the information from, that we should .....
"expect lockdowns in the next 10 years" ??

[Neveracrossword]

I know lots of rich people, none of whom are exempt from Covid rules. I hope this reassures you.

[Hopkirk]

Don't buy one, just charter one when you need it.

[bobbinwales]

You certainly think outside the box.
Your in France. Are holidays illegal there?

[Peter Pedant]

yes ! it is tremendously good sense
how er do you come up with these money makers?
er hehe

Peter i wish it was... lockdowns should be ending now the elderly and care workers have the jab. At the 3nd of the day we never will though. This is it for good now :(

They're selling out fast, get one while there's still some left.

//lockdowns should be ending now the elderly and care workers have the jab.//
Not when half of covid ICU beds are filled with under 55s and this group wont be vaxxed for a few months yet. so releasing lockdown now would soon fill up all beds. Plus it takes 3 weeks for jabs to be fully effective. And we need 2nd jab 12 weeks later. And in some communities vax take up is well under 50% so theres going to be ongoing transmission there on a big scale.

Anyway, if your really in France vaccinnes are only just starting so your goverments not near being able to release lockdown

[bobbinwales]

Oh yes, and take up among care workers is pretty low too

Thinking out of the box is a lot easier when the thinker is already outside it ...

whenever I go anywhere in my private jet I still have to go through the same process as anyone else when I land, all be it a fast track past the poor people. So I have no idea why you think we are exempt from the rules.

[ichkeria]

If going on holiday was illegal (which it isn't btw) then buying a jet company would seem rather a bad idea ...
And I just checked and I can't afford it anyway

[ToraToraTora]

ich, I'll lend you my jet!

[davebro]

Bill Gates buying a private jet co. probably impacts his finances as much as it would me buying a push bike.

[bednobs]

the best time to buy a private jet company was a year ago. The second best time is now ...

have you won the euro lottery?

[drmorgans]

Is the means of transport the problem? Won't countries have lockdown and quarantine restrictions and penalties for breaches?
