Book a room at the Four Seasons’ private jet

The Toronto-based luxury resort company said Wednesday that it’s launching the first Four Seasons-branded private jet.

The plane will come with many of the amenities of a Four Seasons suite—from puffy duvets and chef-prepared meals—and will ferry passengers to Four Seasons resorts around the world on tours that cost more $100,000 per person. “Taking our legendary service to the skies is a natural extension of what we’ve been doing in our hotels for more than 50 years,” said Susan Helstab, executive vice president for marketing.

“It will be relaxed and elegant and comfortable and come with all of the Four Seasons’ service and the ability for the individual to tailor the experience to whatever their desires.” The jet ratchets up the competition in the burgeoning business of private-jet tours. Companies like Abercrombie & Kent, National Geographic and Smithsonian Journeys have been launching private-jet tours that carry a few dozen guests to exotic locales around the world aboard a private plane.

The tours often include gourmet meals, luxury suites, learned tour guides and an education in the wildlife or culture of specific landmarks. While of the trips can cost $60,000 to $120,000 a person, most have been selling out quickly.  -cnbc
