We have 2. With all of the time it takes to get to and through the aiport it pays off. Saved time elimnates hotel stays.

5. Gulfstreams
1 has seats 9 the other 11.
Goes up really fast and descends the same.
Not any louder than commercial.

We have a site on our corp intranet to book time on the flights.
We have 4 full time and 2 part time pilots. They are busy all the time.

3. Not on a jet owned by the company that I worked for...
... but for a company that we worked with (large office furniture co.).

Extremely cool. Would like to do it again someday...

4. Never worked for a company that owned a jet
most of my employers have either been small businesses, or non- or not-for-profits. Those types of organizations don't own their own transportation.
