The airline industry faces increased competition as travelers spend less than in the past and airlines have struggled financially, while time has become more important to travelers facing longer airport lines, fewer flight options, and connections, leading more to consider corporate jet travel, which most individuals cannot afford.

1. The Airline industry is more competitive than ever before. Travelers are
now spending less than they did in the early 80’s. Unfortunately the airline
industry has not made a substantial return on any investment, and lost huge
amounts of money in the early 90’s.
Time is becoming more and more important to travelers. With increased
security measures, long lines at airports, less flight options, and connections
people are now turning toward corporate jet travel. Unfortunately, most people
are unable to afford corporate jet travel.

2.  BizWings will target individuals who normally
would not be able to afford private jet travel
but who’s time is increasingly valuable. We
will target professionals who generally travel
long distance by car because they are still
saving time as opposed to flying. We will now
give these individuals the option of flight
without sitting in long airport lines.

3.  Airlines lack on time performance and reduced
the number of flight options and availability.

5.  I travel everyday for work. I am constantly
stuck in traffic and rarely see my family when I
get home. I wake up the next morning and
prepare for another 2-5 hour commute. My
territory is large and yet I still have to travel by
car. BizWings would significantly improve my
quality of life.
