Inflation adjusted all-time high is $101 a barrel reached in 1980. Just for a little perspective....

It won't effect Netjets in the least. Passengers are directly responsible for all increases in fuel costs, not the company.

The rich are getting richer and there are more millionaires today than ever and they won't blink at spending a few more bucks to keep the status and convenience.

Ok yes owners at all fractionals have a fuel surcharge to pay but even though they have alot of money does not mean if the surcharge gets to a certain point they wont cut back flying or start to push some of that cost back to the fractional.

Bailey,

At Netjets, the owner can't push ANY of the cost back to the company...Fuel is figured in hourly fee's and those vary from month to month (I believe). Explain how someone who own's an airplane can push a variable cost back to the company who operates an aircraft for them?

Thanks.

I would be more concerned with the dollar rapidly loosing value. Because at some point once the dollar is pushed out as the main currency as the G-8 nations would like, the price of oil will be a mute point.

Okay. EVERYBODY pay attention.

"Mute" means to "make quiet."
"Moot" means "it doesn't matter."

"Lose" means "you didn't win."
"Loose" means "it isn't tight."

"They're" means "they are."
"Their" is a possesive meaning "they own"
"There" denotes a direction, as in "over there."

Any questions?

You forgot to explain effect and affect.
