CEO Jake Bass faced backlash after a social media post boasting about his luxurious first-class flight to Dubai, sharing his reflections on the difference in travel class. He postulated that a minor course adjustment made a significant difference in their journey, which seemed to serve as a self-motivational metaphor. His extravagant experience drew ire from many online users who labeled him as greedy and derided his claims. Bass later addressed the uproar by offering to fly a follower anywhere in the world in a bid to mitigate the anger and attract more followers.
Just flew my dad with me to Dubai. First class. Emirates. $50,000 flight. (A world away from the $1,200 I used to pay in economy.) 470 passengers. Only 2 in First Class-us.
That's when it clicked: Just a slight change in direction ... changes everything.
The difference between you and the 468 behind you is that they didn't waste $50,000 on something as temporary as a seat on a plane.
A lot of people are upset; I’ll fly one person anywhere in the world if they follow me on X.
