NBAA today joined with the General Aviation Manufacturers Association to release the latest survey conducted by The Harris Poll demonstrating the value of business aviation. Among the survey’s findings: many business aircraft are largely flown to towns with little or no airline service, on average, 31.5 percent of their flights over the past year were to destinations lacking any scheduled airline service. Also, scheduling flexibility remains a key driver for business aviation, with 51.6 of passengers stating that traveling on business aircraft enables them to keep business schedules that could not be met efficiently using the scheduled airlines.
