George manages a global fleet of 205 aircraft and explains what it takes to run a $20-24 million private jet. The biggest challenge: getting business travelers where they need to go, exactly on time. It requires coordinating crew, maintenance, flight planning, and finances without a single operational slip.

Behind me is a $20 to $24 million airplane depending on the year. It's managed by George here, and he's going to tell us a little bit about what's behind managing an airplane.
Well, basically an owner will buy an aircraft and he needs all the facilitation around it. How we operate it from the crew point, the maintenance, the flight plan, and the financial side. And that's what we do. We operate 205 aircraft around the world. This It's one of them. What's some of the biggest challenges you have in managing airplanes with people? Operating aircraft is a challenge itself. Basically, you need to manage the client expectation. Our aim is to have seamless operation. The same applies to maintenance side, the financial side.
Most airplanes are operated with passengers from middle management of businesses. You can't miss a flight because people are going off to business meetings. They really time themselves based on taking off and landing. So do you have much issues with managing their expectations from there? No.
Not at all.
