Set Jet lets you travel in celebrity style

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Flying by private jet is how most celebrities and wealthy people travel. Let’s face, who wouldn’t want to fly that? But there’s one problem. It’s expensive!

What if you could travel like a high-roller for a little more than price of a first-class ticket?

With Set Jet, a new private jet service operating out of Scottsdale Airport, you can.

Set Jet has two large jets that seat up to 15 passengers. They fly to L.A., Las Vegas, Orange County and San Diego, and will be adding New York and Cabo San Lucas next fall.

There’s a monthly membership fee of $99, and one-way flights cost less than $400.

On board you can sit where you like and with whom you want. A flight attendant waits on you with free drinks and snacks.

Passengers we talked to said they liked the convenience because they can park for free at Scottsdale Airport and walk on the jet at the last minute after showing their thumbprints.

Just go to SetJet.com for all the information on becoming a member.
