If anyone's at a loose end next week there's a 48-seat A319
corporate jet
flying Sydney to Lisbon next week, for an 'up to 75% off' price of
EUR110,000.

I'm guessing that's the fuel and crew cost.

so a full price of close to half a million

Actually the list price for that flight is EUR 876,550 and it's an
"empty leg". So someone else must have hired it one-way the opposite
direction.

oh for the whole plane load

I thought you were quoting a per seat price (like the one that started
this thread)

Seriously? You think it costs twenty million to hire a plane for a day!

They cost "only" $90m new.

Probably a lot less than that in reality: nobody pays the list price
for planes.

I thought most were leased.

Many are, but in which case the leasing company (quite possibly based
in Ireland) paid much less than the list price.
