Vanity Fair’s latest issue (November 2007) has an amusing little column called “The New V.F. Guide to Jetiquette” and if we ever hope to be invited on some mogul’s personal flying machine, we’d best take note. Among the commandments:
“Honor the ‘Wheels Up’ Departure Time: The departure time is sacrosanct. It’s not a cocktail party, so don’t even think of arriving fashionably late or you’ll be left waving your arms on the tarmac as the host’s Hawker roars down the runway. NOTE: A-list actors are exempt from this rule.”
The article also suggests possible “Thank You” gifts for the host, including an Asprey purple-leather travel backgammon set (only $1,750). But, if you’re a peasant like me, you’ll just take that money, buy a cheap air fare, and have a chunk of change left over. Yes, I AM too boring for words.
