Rebuilt from a Beechcraft King Air C90A airframe, this private jet features two new H75-100 engines from General Electric and an all new electronic engine control system that allows full auto-start capability and single-lever power control for the engine and propellers.

I know this is not exactly a private jet per se, but Mercedes-Benz has decided to raise the bar on luxurious private jet interiors, teaming up with Lufthansa Technik for a showstopping interior concept. These two major companies have teamed up for the very first time, taking the beautiful Mercedes design language and turning it into a futuristic interior for a Lufthansa jet.
The incredible result is a jaw dropping jet, combined with a luxury hotel, with the narrow jet cabin featuring windows that are concealed by so-called black panels, similar to the Mercedes-Benz S-Class design. Expect to see this concept put into play the next time a millionaire asks for something unique and classy.

2. Greenpoint Technologies’ Boeing 747-8
Introduced at the end of 2011, the Boeing 747-8 is an aircraft of many superlatives: it is the largest iteration of the 747 range, as well as being the longest passenger aircraft in the world. As such, the American-based company Greenpoint Technologies fully redesigned the aircraft’s interior, making it resemble a luxurious private ship.

1. Four Seasons Private Jet
Four Seasons has went even further this year and unveiled their own luxurious version of a private jet. Based on a Boeing 757, this amazing plane was inspired by “caviar and champagne” and was customized to look exactly like a high flying luxury hotel.
