Description of the enterprising work that went into this entry and its significance or impact on readers:

Business Jet Traveler, which launched back in 2003, has attracted top writing talent
and maintained a high wall between editorial and advertising, which are among the reasons our readers pay attention to our content. According to an independently conducted 2020 study, 82 percent of our subscribers read at least half of each issue, including 58 percent who read between three-quarters and all of the contents.

We feature exclusive interviews with leading business jet travelers, including, in the entered issues, NFL football great Terry Bradshaw and actor/director/activist Sean Penn. These issues also contain our popular yearly “Book of Lists,” results of our annual reader survey, and our usual blend of aviation service copy and lifestyle features.

It may be worth noting that we produce the publication on a tight budget with only one full-time editorial staffer. (A second staffer devotes about half her time to the magazine, and we share an art/production staff with several other periodicals.)
