Celebrate New Year's Eve twice in one night, by private jet

TIME : 2016/2/26 9:21:22

Can’t get enough of New Year’s Eve? For those looking for the ultimate way to see in 2014 twice – private jet booking service PrivateFly.comis offering a private jet itinerary which allows revellers to experience an evening of celebrations and the stroke of midnight, in both Sydney and Los Angeles.

With the world rotating at1,038 milesper hour, no civilian aircraft can currently overtake time. So experiencing the change from 2013 to 2014 twice is only possible by moving backwards across the International Date Line.

Sydney

Carol Cork, marketing director of PrivateFly.com comments “This is the ultimate way to see in 2014, in two of the world’s most exciting party cities. Los Angeles is 19 hours behind Sydney – just over 13 hours away in a long range private jet. So you can gain six hours of party time by flying eastwards. This is only possible by private jet, as the timings are so tight and there are no airline schedules to fit the itinerary.Supersonic private jets are currently at concept stage, and expected to be in operation by 2021. So watch this space for even more exciting, multiple New Year itineraries coming in the next few years!”

Heres their suggested itinerary for 2014.
