One private flight is about the same amount of carbon as the average person produces in a year. That’s quite a bit more significant than straws.
As for the “important changes” part - don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. We unfortunately still rely on the major polluters so it’s harder to dismantle…but private jets? Those only help the 1% and the 1% has enough already

Yeah look that’s a fair take.
But we’re also talking about the emissions of a small cities worth of people. Not great to have, but also not the battle to get bogged down on.
