So, Jane Cahane has done a brief survey of some of the weird and wonderful stuff out there - from the ultra-luxurious treats to the latest technological improvements for business and home life, to the most useful and innovative travel accessories - you may want to buy, replete with prices and stockist details where available.
TRAVEL IN STYLE
For the ultimate in comfort, durability and practicality - not to mention pure style - you can't beat leather. The latest luxury laptop bag designs from Knomo, Frinton and Dallas, retail at $315 and $330 respectively. Stockist details available on: www.knomo.com.
HIRE A LUXURY JET
London brokers Hunt&Palmer offer a range 25-30 styles of luxury jets - including the Embraer Legacy and Bombardier Challenger 06, shown below - for private and corporate hire. Prices and availability are subject to change dependent on various factors (length of stay, distance flown, type of aircraft, parking/airport fees, number of passengers, etc), but are usually within the range of $70,000-$110,000 for a non-stop charter return flight from, say, London to New York or Bermuda (the Legacy will only fly up to six hours non-stop). Most aircraft will seat up to 16 people, though Airbus and VIP Boeings for 25-100 people are also available.
