Around-the-world jet charter adds Honolulu to itinerary

Honolulu will be one of the stops on a $144,500-per-person, 21-day around-the-world trip aboard a Gulfstream IV private jet by Safari Air, a company that bills itself as the first environmentally friendly luxury private jet charter service.

The "Around the World Grand East Africa Safari" is set to take flight Oct. 15, departing in Orange County. Its stops include Honolulu, Guam, Hong Kong, Cairo, Edinburgh and Quebec City, with the highlight being a two-week African safari.

The carrier said it will purchase carbon offsets for each passenger mile flown.
