The 2 other major factors millennials are looking for in private jets is digitization of the Biz Av industry. With AI with the future of technology, it is no surprise that millennials want to incorporate it in Biz Av. But we believe, that while some part of the flight management services can be digitized but other parts will still need human touch to it.

A staggering 62%, believes that the key factors for going with Business Aviation is its flexibility and the freedom it offers.
