Twenty-two routes the office books most.
Mediterranean summers, Alps winters, transatlantic and ULR Asia. Each route is editorial — the office books with multiple operators rather than fixed tail numbers, so what you see below describes the leg, the typical aircraft, and the seasons that drive demand.
Mediterranean Summer
The summer rotation
Zurich → Ibiza
1h 50minLSZH → LEIB · 850 nm
The single most-booked route from Zurich in summer. Direct to LEIB; door-to-door under three hours including ground time. The Phenom 300E and Citation CJ3+ cover this comfortably.
Zurich → Olbia (Sardinia)
1h 30minLSZH → LIEO · 600 nm
Costa Smeralda season. LIEO Olbia is a 20-minute drive from Porto Cervo. Light jets connect Zurich-Olbia in 90 minutes; the season slot pressure makes early booking essential.
Zurich → Mykonos
2h 40minLSZH → LGMK · 1,300 nm
Mykonos JMK has notoriously short slot availability in August — typical aircraft slots are 90-minute windows. Most operators recommend a midsize jet for the additional flexibility.
Geneva → Saint-Tropez (La Môle)
50minLSGG → LFTZ · 300 nm
Short 50-minute hop to La Môle (LFTZ), the airport closest to Saint-Tropez. The runway is short and restricted — most peer light jets cannot land here, so the Pilatus PC-24 or a VLJ is the right call.
Zurich → Saint-Tropez (La Môle)
1h 15minLSZH → LFTZ · 500 nm
Same La Môle runway restrictions apply — VLJs or the Pilatus PC-24 only. The HondaJet Elite is a favourite on this leg.
Geneva → Mallorca
1h 50minLSGG → LEPA · 800 nm
Palma's general-aviation terminal is well-handled; ground time typically 20 minutes either side. A Phenom 300E or Citation CJ3+ covers Geneva-Palma in under two hours.
Zurich → Cannes (Mandelieu)
1h 10minLSZH → LFMD · 500 nm
LFMD Mandelieu is a short runway closer to Cannes Croisette than Nice (LFMN). Peer light jets handle it well; the Pilatus PC-24 is favoured when the wind direction restricts approach options.
London → Ibiza
2h 20minEGGW → LEIB · 1,000 nm
Standard route for our London-based members. Usually via Luton (EGGW) or Farnborough (EGLF); both have full general-aviation terminals. The Citation CJ3+ is common on this leg.
Geneva → Saint-Tropez (La Môle, short-field)
50minLSGG → LFTZ · 300 nm
The PC-24's short-field capability is the differentiator at La Môle — it lets us avoid a Nice-to-Saint-Tropez ground transfer (over an hour in summer traffic).
Alps Winter
The winter season
Zurich → St. Moritz (Samedan)
30minLSZH → LSZS · 100 nm
LSZS Samedan is Europe's highest-elevation airport (5,600 ft) — performance requirements limit the aircraft list significantly. Pilatus PC-24 is the Swiss member's choice; many heavy jets cannot land here.
Zurich → Courchevel
35minLSZH → LFLJ · 150 nm
LFLJ Courchevel is the famous short-runway 'altiport' — only specifically rated pilots can land here, and only on certified VLJs. Most members instead fly to Chambéry (LFLB) and helicopter the last 15 minutes.
Zurich → Sion / Gstaad (Saanen)
30minLSZH → LSGS · 100 nm
Sion handles most jets; Saanen (Gstaad's airport) is restricted to short-runway-capable aircraft — Pilatus PC-24, HondaJet Elite. Geneva alternative on weather days.
Long Range
Transatlantic and beyond
Zurich → Dubai
6h 10minLSZH → OMDB · 2,650 nm
Non-stop on a Praetor 600 or Challenger 350; Falcon 7X and G550 fly it comfortably with passenger configuration unchanged. Door-to-door Zurich-Dubai under 7 hours.
Zurich → Miami
9h 30minLSZH → KMIA · 4,400 nm
Non-stop on heavies and ULRs (Falcon 7X, G550, G650). The Praetor 600 can do it with a Canada tech-stop on westbound winds. Common winter route for members with Florida property.
Geneva → Miami
9h 45minLSGG → KMIA · 4,500 nm
Same range bucket as Zurich-Miami. Geneva often has more available super-midsize and heavy-jet positioning, which can shave hourly rates on short-notice bookings.
Zurich → New York (Teterboro)
8h 30minLSZH → KTEB · 4,000 nm
Teterboro (KTEB) is the preferred New York general-aviation airport — 30 minutes to Manhattan vs. JFK's 60+. Praetor 600 non-stop eastbound; heavies non-stop both directions.
London → New York
8hEGLF → KTEB · 3,500 nm
The classic transatlantic charter. Praetor 600 non-stop both directions; Challenger 350 non-stop eastbound, one-stop westbound depending on winds.
Zurich → Singapore
12h 30minLSZH → WSSS · 5,800 nm
ULR territory only — G650ER and Global 7500 both fly this non-stop. Falcon 7X can do it with one tech-stop in the Middle East. The longest single leg the office regularly books.
Caribbean / Bahamas
Caribbean & Bahamas
Miami → Nassau
50minKMIA → MYNN · 180 nm
The standard Miami-to-Bahamas hop. Light jet covers it in 50 minutes; ground at MYNN typically clears in under 20 minutes. Frequent pairing with our Miami yacht-charter members.
Miami → St. Barth's
2h 50minKMIA → TFFJ · 1,100 nm
TFFJ St. Barth's has a famously dramatic short runway (650m) — only specifically rated pilots and certified light jets may land. Most members fly to St. Maarten (TNCM) and helicopter or ferry the last 15 minutes.
