Thrones, gold seat buckles and a concert hall: Inside the gloriously opulent private jets of the world's richest including a prince's 'flying palace' and Trump's $100m plane
These incredible aircraft include cinemas, marble baths, aquariums, Rolls Royce garages, glass floors, concert halls, wellbeing rooms, thrones, chef's kitchens and gold seat buckles.
Each unique jet can be personally designed down to the tiniest luxurious detail for work or play.
Photographer Nick Gleis specializes in picturing such planes. But many of the owners wish to remain anonymous, so around 90 percent of Gleis’s work is never seen by the public.
Well-known names who feature in the photos below include Jackie Chan, Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal and Donald Trump.
Chan's plush jet has his name and intertwining dragons emblazoned on the side. Al-Waleed's has several planes and his 'flying palace' includes a concert hall complete with a grand piano. And Donald Trump's chosen transport has 18 IMAX-level speakers in the cinema room.

Anonymous: The owners of most private jets like to keep their luxurious travel arrangements out of the public eye
Detail: Every part of a private plane can be customized to the final detail, like this exquisite sink
Gleaming: The detail on these doors resemble a luxury home rather than a means of transportation

from Microsoft executive Paul Allen for $100 million in 2010 and then he
customized it. It includes a cinema room and little extras like gold
faucets and seat buckles

Multi-purpose: Each plane can be configured for work, play or both
Dine in style: Panels and screens section off different areas of the impressive jets

Futuristic: In this plane the mirrored ceiling creates the illusion of a bigger space
