Santorini

Why charter a private jet to Santorini?

Cave hotels clinging to the cliff, exceptional dining and volcanic vineyards: Santorini ranks among the most sought-after destinations in the Mediterranean. In peak season, demand is intense and scheduled seats run short. The private jet links the island directly from most European capitals in two to three hours.

For a stay as much as for an escape, our teams select from our fleet the aircraft suited to the number of passengers and coordinate the ground logistics.

Santorini Airport (JTR) and the summer constraints

Santorini National Airport (JTR / LGSR) has a single runway of around 2,125 m, which accommodates aircraft from light jets to long-range jets, as well as single-aisle airliners. It lies around 6 km from Fira, about ten minutes from the main town.

Its parking capacity, however, is limited: in peak season, slots and stands run short quickly, and the aircraft may need to reposition, for example to Athens, after dropping its passengers. Anticipating these slots is precisely the role of your broker.

Which cities can you fly from to Santorini by private jet?

Santorini is reached directly from Europe aboard a light or midsize jet depending on the distance:

• Athens – Santorini: around 0h45 flight
• Rome – Santorini: around 2h00
• Nice – Santorini: around 2h15
• Geneva – Santorini: around 2h45
• Zurich – Santorini: around 2h45
• Paris – Santorini: around 3h15
• London – Santorini: around 3h45

These links put the island within reach of a short stay during the season. For groups or bulky luggage, a larger-category aircraft can be used.

Santorini, the jewel of the Cyclades

Born of a volcanic eruption, Santorini offers one of the most spectacular landscapes in Greece: the caldera, the villages of Oia and Fira clinging to the cliff, the blue domes and a unique light at sunset. Prestige hotels, fine dining and volcanic wines round out the experience.

The island sits within an archipelago made for discovery by private jet: Mykonos and Heraklion, in Crete, round out a bespoke Greek itinerary.
