Top Five Luxury Amenities for Private Jet Interiors


For the world’s most elite travelers, private jet ownership is just the beginning. After all, any idiot with $50 million or so to spare can shell out for a Gulfstream. It turns out that when it comes to private jets, what your mother always told you is true: it’s what’s on the inside that counts. A custom designed interior is what separates a staid mode of corporate conveyance from a stylish reflection of personal panache. We’ve compiled a list of the top 5 must-have luxury amenities for private jet interiors.

Custom Seats and Couches

The most luxurious private jets feature a variety of seating options—chairs, divans and couches—for all the different social situations that may transpire aboard your jet. And of course, all should be upholstered in swank fabrics—or better yet crocodile skin, to really give it some masculine charm. Seat belts? Fine, just make sure they’re plated in gold.

Personalized Jet-Ware

Texas-based Dahlgren Duck designs complete sets of luxury accessories for jets. Impress guests with monogrammed bone china, sterling silverware and champagne flutes tinted in the same shade of blue as the curtains. Remember: It’s all in the details.

Entertainment Systems

Forget LCD screens in head-rests. The hottest designs for private planes, including those submitted by BMW Designworks for a Boeing 787 Dreamliner, and by Lufthansa Technik for Prince Alwaleed’s Airbus 380 all feature enclosed movie theatres.

Bathrooms

A bathroom with a shower is an absolute necessity. The latest trend, according to a recent article in the Wall Street Journal, is steam showers. Whether you choose to go with gold chrome faucets or stick with a muted matte finish is, of course, a matter of personal preference.

Bedrooms

A private jet without a bedroom is like an action movie without a high-speed car chase. Likewise, while it’s great to impress all your friends aboard with the plush furnishings and polished finishes, the real envy coup de grace comes as you rise from the couch and announce that you’re going to go to the back of the plane to take a nap, and that you’ll see all of them nine hours later, in Tokyo.
