The Privileged V. the Proles

Big businesses and wealthy people are chartering private jets for “evacuation flights” out of countries hit by the coronavirus outbreak.

Adam Twidell, the chief executive of the private jet booking service PrivateFly, said the company had been inundated with requests. Twidell said rich families were also chartering private jets to reduce the risk of exposing their families to the virus by avoiding commercial flights and busy airports.
