Does Air Force 1 count as private? I was an E-2 and got stuck on a flight on AF1 because of some electronics issues I was the tech. I wasn't allowed to be anywhere on the plane except the communications area.

Last private jet I flew on was on was a Cessna Citation in upstate New York.
This one in particular.

Private jets ? I’d settle for a private bathroom.
I grew up on Cessnas and Pipers. As I recall we were always able to both take off and land without major incident. And that’s what’s most important.

My previous company used Netjets to fly to meetings, especially to Bentonville.
No clue what the jet was, but it was nice. You pull right up to it and they take your luggage. When you land, your rental is waiting there for you.
All the snacks and stuff on board will be replaced, so the flight attendant tells you take it with you. My kids loved the gummi bears that came in little tins.

Cessna Citation V - numerous times (uncle's plane). I've also flown in Billy Dunavant's plane (former Memphis cotton exec). Not sure the model but it was huge. Was also the former plane of Fred Smith (FedEx founder) if that gives you an idea.

We take our Challenger to London a lot. Sucks having to stop in Gander on the way to Luton but we aren't looking to upgrade yet.

Got to take a GVI from Miami to africa for work when the country’s borders were closed for Covid. We had a Brazilian stewardess with big fake titties. I didn’t get to play with them but she did give me a steak and lots of free booze.

Also had one trip on an Eclipse. Piece of shite, those.
My brother had a very brief time employed as a private pilot in an Eclipse Jet. This is like getting a chauffeur for a Porsche 911 because the jet is so small. He's a retired AF fighter pilot and was looking for something to do but not on a full time basis. He was hired by two brothers in New Orleans to fly them back and forth between New Orleans and the Caribbean and their yacht. He only made two trips with them before giving them notice enroute on the second return trip. Fighter pilots don't take kindly to someone else's hands reaching from behind to adjust the throttle is all I will say. He gave his notice after telling them to remain in their seat. The next sentence actually.
