Looking at the results of a recent Harris Poll makes it clear that business aviation continues operating successfully through a number of rather simple premises; access between secondary cities and large metropolitan areas and as private transport to augment airline travel; to provide greater efficiency and flexibility in travel scheduling; heightened employee productivity while en route. That final point obviously might not be quite as critical to pilots flying single pilot of course, but the results are considered a statistically valid representation for the use of business aircraft by NBAA’s 11,000-plus member companies. The new poll was sponsored by the NBAA and GAMA.

Key Takeaways:
- Business aviation predominantly serves smaller companies, providing crucial access to airports lacking commercial service and enabling highly efficient, flexible, and multi-stop travel schedules.
- It significantly boosts employee productivity, with nearly two-thirds of passenger time aloft dedicated to work and meetings, far surpassing productivity on commercial flights.
- While not just for top management, business aircraft, often small jets or turboprops, are increasingly used for international travel and humanitarian missions, highlighting their diverse utility.
