The title is simply sensationalism. Anyone who sees it thinks "OMG!" and has to drill down into the thread to quickly figure out it's crap. The casual observer may just see the thread title and move on and then spread the news.
It's a lowly tactic to scream something provoking and false to drag attention to some silliness you want to share with the world. It'd be like going to a movie theater and shouting, "FIRE!....is dangerous. Ya'll want to buy some water?"

Assuming you mean luxury as relaxation rather than luxury as an advantage over the competition, then this is not a true statement. Pretty much every fractional pilot will tell you, the majority of our work is business travel. These people are working in the back. Laptops on, papers everywhere, some using the phone, and often eating while they work. These people do not have the time to be wasting with 2 hr shows, 3 hr connections with the airlines. 50% of our business is publicly traded companies, 25% private companies, and 25% true luxury travel.

I will say that the number of SL tail numbers coming in and out of my airport has slowed quite a bit since about September, you used to be able to count on one or two a day, I've only seen one in about 3 months. Maybe just the season, maybe people are going somewhere else, who knows.

Winter is generally the busier time for Flex and NJA, not sure if it is also true for Avantair, but I would suspect it is.
