Neiman Marcus wants you to dream big when it comes to travel with its 2020 Fantasy Gift offerings.

For those who want to spare no expense, the famed department store is selling a suite of travel-inspired fantasy gifts that will leave wanderlusters absolutely drooling.

According to Neiman Marcus, Jet Linx will provide private jet services through InCircle Concierge and Travel and Transport Inc. for five of the nine Neiman Marcus Fantasy Gifts this year. For each gift, customers and their guests will fly roundtrip on a luxury, large-cabin aircraft such as a Gulfstream IV or Challenger 604.
