Both can be delayed for myriad reasons. Air travel is inherently faster, however.

I know. But anything Amtrak is almost never on time, with the exception of some 'corridors' on the east-coast, where they own the tracks.

When I last looked into this, flying private started somewhere around 10k a seat. Not cheap, but also something non-centimillionaires can afford.

But is it 10k if you fill the plane? Or could I get one all to myself for 10k?

I believe it was ~10k per passenger. You'd end up sharing the plane with other people going to the same location.
Looking it up again, it looks like the way they generally charge is per hour of flying. Low end is $2k per hour with the high end being $10k per hour. I'm guessing the type of jet and accommodations makes all the difference.

Gross. Thinking about the disparity between the consumers "and creators" of this service vs. any working class family makes me sick. Nasty business for dirty, disgusting people.
