These jets make the ride so wonderful that people never forget their ride.
Good description of Boeing 747-8. Really after reading this we can say it is a VIP business jet.
Environmentalists will be going insane over that one haha. But that jet is amazing. I'd buy one if I could.
These are all amazing private jets, but I was amazed to see a Saudi prince customise the jumbo Airbus A380 for him for $485 million
Paint and interior will be more like $50 to $100 million and up. a BBJ (737-700) executive interior and paint starts around $20 million.
