This will make passengers feel like they own a private jet, and experience that will make them feel special. Singh added that passengers will be required to arrive at least half an hour before the departure time, an entry will be given from a separate gate, unlike the regular passengers. They can even arrange a car or taxi to make a quick exit from the airport.
