You’ve read stories on the internet about the horrors of riding airplanes with some co-passengers taking off their shoes, even if they have stinky feet, babies crying throughout a long-haul flight, and inconsiderate people taking too much space on the plane’s seat. I’m sure these scenarios will make you wish that you had the money to buy your own private jet.
While that’s still a dream, you might want to check out these most luxurious and expensive private jets in the world so you could have something to choose from once you’ve become an ultra billionaire.
10. CHALLENGER 600 (WORTH: $5 MILLION)
This spacious, comfy, and economical private jet lands 10th on the list of the world’s most expensive private jets. This aircraft can seat seven to nine passengers and can be expanded to 19 passengers when configured.

9. HAWKER 4000 (WORTH: $22 MILLION)
This medium-size private jet can comfortably sit 10 passengers and would still leave extra interior space — bigger than some jets with the same class as the Hawker 4000.
Sergio Garcia, a professional golf player from Spain, bought this private jet for $22 million. It’s reported that he uses the Hawker 4000 to travel to different countries for his tournaments.
8. EMBRAER LEGACY 650 (WORTH: $30 MILLION)

4. AIRBUS ACJ319 (WORTH: $80 MILLION)

Thanks to a Rolls-Royce engine, this Boeing is one of the fastest airplanes in the world. It can fly at more than 500 miles per hour. It’s also extremely spacious. Normally, a Boeing 757 can carry close to 250 passengers. Trump’s 757 has only 43 seats!
Donald Trump’s plane is equipped with a dining room, a bedroom and a private guest room. It also features a bath with 24-karat gold faucets and seat buckles.
Finally, in case you wonder what to do on board this expensive flying toy, Donald Trump’s Boeing has it’s own a cutting edge theatre system equipped with 18 IMAX-level speaker…. and 1000 movies on demand!
