In the "how it works" the pictures show 4000-7500 usd (i think) per hour.

For a plane with how many seats? Screenshot suggests 4ish passengers, though the aircraft looks like it could carry more.

Am I missing something and this is a per-person cost? That surely wouldn't gel with the statement about it being a more affordable option for flights shorter than 300 miles?

The 3rd slide (coin-based histogram) has a disingenuous scale...is the vertical axis exponential or something?!

[edit] Looking further down, it turns out that all their graphs are horrific.

Saw that, but I don't know how each aircraft category correlates to capacity unless I guess. Hopefully they'll unveil full info soon.

For short flights, a heavy jet wouldn't be cheaper. But when you start looking into singles, twin engines or turboprops the prices for a short flight can become very competitive and affordable... especially when time is factored in.
