So You Want to Get Free Airline Tickets: Should You Choose a Reward or Cash Back Credit Card?
If you want to use a reward credit card for getting free airline tickets, you have a choice of choosing a dedicated airline credit card, a travel reward credit card or a cash back credit card. You are required to purchase the ticket either through the specific airline directly (in the case of a specific frequent flyer program) or through the reward program's agent.
Choose a cash back credit card if you airline ticket cost less than $250.
Choose a travel credit card if your airline ticket cost more than $250.

It is true that the fractionals substantially cut the costs related to owning an aircraft. If you're serious about making a fractional jet purchase, and live nearby to their operations, don't hesitate to ask for a tour of their aircraft and facilities, they should be more than happy to accommodate you. CitationShares and Flexjet are owned by aircraft manufacturers, their respective fleets composed mainly (if not entirely) of the planes they make.

Airlines, Price Wars, and Branding
The result was record air travel and record losses. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR! NOBODY CAN AFFORD TO DO IT THAT CHEAP. Surely this example cannot be used in modern context, because at the time each airline was flying both McDonald Douglas, Boeing and Lockheed Aircraft. Similar in fuel consumptions, similar ticket distribution system, similar airport landing fees and similar customer base.
