Naresh Chauhan | Aug 11 2009

In this fast-moving era where time has become a new luxury, the need for a brisk modes of commuting for business executives and bureaucrats has been felt more than ever before. As a $1000 bill on the ground is just not worth Bill Gates’ time to bend over and pick it up, for he would make more just heading off to work. Jokes apart! Valuing the true worth of your time, Japanese Mori Building Co is set to launch a 30-minute helicopter and limo service between the central district of Akasaka and Narita International Airport that will cut the travel time by an hour. Moreover, the commuters will enjoy a luxury travel lying comfortably on the rich-brown calf-leather seats of the $10 million EC135 by French luxury brand Hermes. Hailed as “l’Helicoptere par Hermes,” the luxury chopper will take about 22 flights a day and charge $790 (75,000 yen) for a one-way trip.
