A jet airliner is an airliner that is powered by jet engines. This term is sometimes contracted to jetliner or jet. In contrast to today's relatively fuel-efficient, turbofan-powered air travel, first generation jet airliner travel was noisy and fuel inefficient. These inefficiencies were addressed by the invention of turboprop and turbofan engines.
