The rich have both security and privacy concerns that make regular air travel problematic. Bill Gates sitting in an airport terminal is a danger to him, those around him, and is also a hassle to him and those around him.

There is the secondary factor of their time being too valuable as well, and having a direct flight to anywhere in the world making a big difference in how much time they spend.

I promise you Michael Bloomberg's time is not more valuable than anyone else on planet Earth, I don't care how big his bank account is.

This is just-so reasoning.

I think it's pretty obvious his time is objectively more valuable than mine
