10. Boeing 777-300ER – Bangladesh
You may not equate Bangladesh with a lavish lifestyle, but when it comes to the Boeing 777-300ER, you have got $260 million worth of excellence. This twin jet broke aviation headlines back in 2014 and features seating for both business and economy classes. A top-rated plane, it joined the elitist Biman Bangladesh Airlines fleet in 2011. This piece of machinery is in it for the long haul, weighing less and emitting 22% less carbon dioxide than its predecessors. It features a General Electric twin engine and has solidified itself as one of the top-performing commercial planes out there. It also flies nonstop to several European destinations.
9. Airbus A340-600 – Jordan
Here is nearly 76 meters of pure flight joy. If you’ve got $275 million, you can have the aircraft that transported the leader of Jordan to and fro. The Airbus A340-600 prides itself on providing cozy in-house seating for those who choose economy class. It uses less fuel than other planes and is equipped with the most modern aviation technology (you gotta be safe if you’re transporting political leaders.) While not the most expensive plane out there, it is one of the safest, and is also a force to be reckoned with according to cargo statistics as well. Its maximum range is 7,900 nautical miles and its engines are lightweight, but powerful: Rolls-Royce Trent 500 engines. Four of them!
