S U P E R I O R S E R V I C E , S E A M L E S S T R AV E L A Boeing 757 jet has been specially outfitted for these incredible expeditions. Its long-range capabilities and capacity to land at smaller airports afford us the flexibility to fly direct and avoid layovers—which in turn gives us the freedom to make the most of our experiences on land. On our Around the World by Private Jet, Central and South America by Private Jet, and The Future of Everything: Exploring Global Innovation by Private Jet expeditions, the jet’s interior has been refitted to accommodate just 75 travelers in a spacious two-by-two seating configuration, instead of the standard 233 seats. On our Africa by Private Jet expedition, the jet is configured to accommodate 57 travelers. Each reclining, VIP-style seat is handcrafted from the finest European leather and equipped with a center console, leg rest, foldout footrest, and four-way adjustable headrest, offering supreme in-flight comfort as we travel between destinations.

In the pages that follow, you’ll find opportunities to adapt the expedition at no additional cost. Some of these alternative options have limited space or require a minimum number of participants; reservations are on a firstcome, first-served basis. We can also arrange special experiences that are not featured in the itinerary, whether you’d like to go behind the scenes at a world-renowned museum, explore intriguing ruins off the beaten path, or set out on a challenging hike. If you have already visited or would like to skip one of the stops along the journey, we will look into arranging your visit to an alternative destination.
