For a group of ten traveling to five Chinese cities in five days, a corporate jet beats first class. You save time with direct city-to-city flights and skip airport hassles. The choice comes down to whether you value your time more than the extra cost.

Hey Steve!
Hey, what's up?
I'm just about to fly to China and I want to know if I should fly private or first class.
Oh, it's not really the right question. Have a seat, I'll explain to you.
Why is it not the right question?
I mean, really, you don't decide if you want to fly first class or private. The point is, is flying on a corporate jet really is for somebody who has a corporate need for the airplane. So it's not a question of cost. You have basically 10 people, you're going to go to China, you're going to go to 5 different cities and then come back in 5 days. Well, then it makes more sense to get a corporate jet. Logistically, much more smarter. Be in every city city you want, probably come back quicker, use less time. Time is money. Take the jet.
So do I take the jet or fly first class?
You're asking the wrong person. I mean, look where we're at. You know my answer.
