NETJETS US VOLUME 9 2019

taking off
WELCOME TO THE INAUGURAL
EDITION OF NETJETS, THE
MAGAZINE A JOURNAL OF
ELEGANCE AND ELOQUENCE
FOR OUR NETJETS OWNERS
ACROSS THE U.S.
In creating this quarterly title, we aim to bring you a curated
assembly of articles, information, and trend-based
communications covering travel and lifestyle, wine and
gastronomy, philanthropy and the arts—and everything in
between.
As you will find in the pages that follow, these pieces are
complemented by the latest news and happenings from the
world of NetJets and beyond.
In this launch title, we reference the ancient and eyecatching
volcanic topology of Utah’s Millard County, our cover
star courtesy of Daily Overview, with a comprehensive look at
everything new and exciting from the American West.
There are, of course, many more transportive features
herein as well as an exclusive interview with NetJets Owners
Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana.
As the dynamic Italian designer duo put it, “We love to travel;
it inspires us and makes us dream.” We not only hope you
derive the same contentment wherever you are traveling with
NetJets but we also hope this journal enlivens and enhances
your experience flying with us.
