Flying in style, comfort and utmost exclusivity, that is the BlackBookAsia’s standard when it come to travelling.

In a sea of silver and white airplanes, it’s hard not to notice the sleek black jet emblazoned with the Four Seasons logo as it comes in for a landing. As the hotel industry’s first fully branded jet, the completely refurbished Boeing 757 has been customized from nose to tail, allowing Four Seasons to offer you a unique luxury travel experience at 40,000 feet.

Four Seasons Jet’s custom interiors are designed to match the high standard of style found throughout the brand’s hotels and resorts. It’s elegant and practical, comfortable and chic. And, just as with the rooms on the ground, the beauty here lies in the thoughtful details.

Every element of the aircraft has been reimagined with guests in mind, beginning with the remarkably spacious interior. With only 52 seats arranged 2×2, each passenger is provided with a generous 6.5 feet (2 metres) of personal space. Handcrafted in Italy and designed exclusively for Four Seasons, the soft leather seats can recline to a fully flat position, and each one is outfitted with a Mongolian cashmere blanket. Crisp white linens and goose-down pillows are readily provided for those wanting to sleep between destinations.

Innovative designs and luxe finishes – from the handmade carpet to the custom ottomans – not only set the tone for your journey, they also make circling the globe as comfortable as possible. And with one crew member to every six passengers, personalized, attentive service is guaranteed from the moment you step aboard.

In addition to the built-in creature comforts, you’ll also be treated to a number of items that are yours to take home after the journey’s end. A leather tote bag designed exclusively for Jet passengers by Ghurka; a leather journal; Four Seasons slippers, baseball cap and compression socks; and a custom-designed amenity kit featuring high-end products are yours to keep, as are the Bose noise-cancelling headphones.

While on board, an iPad will serve as your personal in-flight entertainment system, allowing you to view and stream the comprehensive selection of movies, TV shows and music on demand. All Four Seasons spa and dining menus, as well as those for select off-site restaurants, are also placed right at your fingertips. And to ensure you’re always connected, three USB ports and an international power socket can be found at each seat for all your devices.

From coordinating a 20-course dining experience for a couple wishing to taste the spices of Shanghai to hunting down a blender that can operate at altitude, the Executive Chef, Kerry Sear, goes above and beyond in every way possible to deliver culinary experiences that transcend the limits of in-air dining.

In order to achieve such a high level of gourmet service, Four Seasons have custom-fitted the Jet with state-of-the-art kitchen equipment to allow chefs to create magic in the galley, utilizing fresh, local ingredients gathered from each destination. With this kind of flexibility, you can tailor your meal choices while aboard the Jet – be it caviar on carved ice or a burger and beer – it will be made just the way you like, whenever you’d like.
