$43K buys a private jet to college visits
A private jet company hopes to ease stress for families visiting multiple colleges-if they can shell out $43,500.
Magellan Jets will offer 10-hour flight cards for college-bound students starting at $43,500, the company said on Wednesday. The package-which is sold from March 25 to June 30-is designed to reduce the complications that come with scheduling multiple visits to potential schools.
Families get private car service and can schedule a chauffeured tour of the campus. Magellan also provides notebooks from each university so students and families can record their thoughts between visits.
Magellan sold 10-hour flight cards for the first time last April at the same starting price. Eighteen people bought the package in 2014, and the company expects about 50 buyers this year, a Magellan spokeswoman told CNBC.
