Why Presidents Don’t Fly Commercial
Imagine the chaos at a regular airport if the president arrived unannounced. Plus, with Air Force One always ready, there’s no need for them to ever consider commercial flights.

It’s a perk of the presidency that offers not only convenience but also an added layer of security and prestige. So, while the allure of a spontaneous airport jaunt may hold a certain appeal for the average traveler, for the president, it’s Air Force One or bust.
