Imagine exploring 10 legendary destinations around the world in a single journey, flying from one destination to the next by private jet, staying at some of the world’s finest hotels and resorts and enjoying your choice of high-quality excursions along the way.

The 2012 Around the World by Private Jet package provides a taste of legendary destinations and showcases the much talked about ‘Four Seasons experience’ with all the personal touches of a dedicated team of guides and staff, which the organisers say, will ensure the entire experience is ‘seamless luxury’.

“There are many travellers who seek high-end travel products and as such we developed our Luxury Indulgence Department to specifically cater to the needs of these guests. Our elite customers seek unique and premium products that possess authenticity, product excellence and service precision. There is especially high demand for once-in-a-lifetime styled journeys,” said John V Kailath, manager VIP Holidays, Omeir Travel Agency.

“There is no doubt that travel has been affected by world economic pressures, however, the luxury sector remains strong and first class travel experiences have retained their appeal. Our elite clients are looking for something exceptional that offers memorable experiences.”

This trip for just 78 travellers kicks off with a welcome dinner on October 29, 2012, in Los Angeles. The itinerary includes Kona on the big island of Hawaii, Bora Bora in French Polynesia, iconic Australian destinations of Sydney and Ayers Rock, the Indonesian island of Bali, Chiang Mai in Thailand, the Taj Mahal and Mumbai in colourful India, the Pyramids and Sphinx in Cairo, Egypt and London, UK.

Travelling by a VIP-configured Boeing 757, dining and staying only at Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, there is no doubt this trip is for the well-heeled.

Renowned experts travel with guests throughout the entire journey, share their knowledge and enthusiasm for the places and cultures visited. They provide relevant and engaging presentations during flights and on land and join travellers in discussions during meals and special events.

Travellers can choose to go beyond the main itinerary with a choice of personalised excursions, arranged by Four Seasons concierge staff in each destination. Whether a cooking class, visit to a local school, taking a hike off the beaten path, or spending the afternoon at a spa, itineraries can be custom-tailored.

The private jet features a spacious cabin with a plush interior, beautiful VIP-style leather seating (designed with special comfort foam that reduces pressure points and stress), on board library, audio-visual system and in-seat power for laptops and personal devices.    Inflight service is provided by a veteran crew with a 1:5 crew traveller ratio, three pilots, catering officer and chef, two engineers and a dedicated luggage handler.

At each destination, travellers unwind in deluxe Four Seasons comfort. Whether a beach side resort or a cosmopolitan city hotel, each stylish Four Seasons property captures the authentic character of the destination. Sleep in famously comfortable Four Seasons beds and rely on a range of services, including 24-hour dry cleaning and twice-daily housekeeping.

The 22-day trip continues wuntil November 19, 2012, when it concludes in London with a breakfast gathering.

Prices start from around BD26,000 per person for the Around the World by Private Jet experience which includes all meals, private jet transportation starting in Los Angeles and concluding in London, ground transportation, selected excursions, accommodation at Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts in each destination and applicable taxes.
