Oslo, Tokyo and the other places that topped the recent list of most expensive cities list hardly make a dent in the budgets of these private-jet flying, American Express Centurion card-wielding, $25 room service hamburger-ordering travelers. Forbes has an inside look at what it’s like to travel like a billionaire.

“[W]hat they do is travel better,” writes Sophia Banay. “When was the last time anyone saw Bill Gates or Warren Buffett taking his shoes off going through airport security? Has Larry Ellison recently missed a flight because he was stuck in traffic? Do any of the Waltons lose their luggage? Does Indian steel king Lakshmi Mittal worry that he can’t get a reservation at his favorite London restaurant? Not at all.”
