Top Luxury Destinations to Reach by Private Jet – and Live Like a Local Icon
Travel isn’t just about the destination – it’s about how you arrive, where you stay, what you experience, and who opens the right doors. At PorterJets, we go beyond the jet: from sourcing your villa and securing last-minute dinner reservations to putting you front row at sold-out events, we design your trip around the lifestyle you live – or the one you’re ready to step into.
Whether you’re planning a spontaneous getaway or curating a milestone moment, these six destinations offer more than stunning views. They’re access points to the kind of life that only a few ever touch – and our clients never have to wait in line for.
1. St. Barts, Caribbean – The Ultimate Island Hideaway
A French-Caribbean gem that doesn’t do casual tourism. St. Barts is where discreet luxury meets high-end living – home to fashion moguls, international royals, and the occasional pop-up party hosted by a household name.
Why fly private: Gustaf III Airport has a notoriously short runway – few commercial jets can land here. Private aviation unlocks direct access to the island’s exclusive enclaves and makes even a quick weekend escape seamless.
Where to stay: PorterJets guests can choose between hillside estates with sweeping views or beachfront villas tucked behind private gates. We also arrange yacht transfers to nearby Anguilla and dining reservations at Bonito or Shellona.
Special access: NYE villa parties, designer trunk shows, private chef experiences, and curated day sails with champagne pairings.
2. Aspen, Colorado – America’s Luxury Winter Playground
Aspen has earned its reputation – not just for the powder, but for the lifestyle that comes with it. From private clubs and heated sidewalks to art galleries and mountain chalets, Aspen is where winter feels like something entirely different.
Why fly private: Commercial options are limited and weather-dependent. Flying private means no delays in Denver, no lost ski gear, and the flexibility to leave when the storm rolls in – or chase it when it’s fresh.
Where to stay: PorterJets clients access exclusive ski-in/ski-out residences, private slope chalets, or members-only lodging. We also coordinate in-home ski fittings, après-ski masseuses, and dog-friendly amenities.
Special access: Private mountain guides, access to Caribou Club and Casa Tua, and priority tables at Matsuhisa during high season.
3. Monaco – Glamor, Grand Prix, and Mediterranean Luxury
You don’t go to Monaco for the weather – you go for the spectacle. From the Monaco Yacht Show to the Grand Prix, this pocket-sized principality delivers the highest concentration of wealth, luxury, and legacy on the Riviera.
Why fly private: Land in Nice Côte d’Azur and connect via helicopter directly to the marina – no wait, no customs chaos, just a view that drops jaws. Flying private means arriving on your own schedule and skipping the bottlenecks of event weekends.
Where to stay: Through our concierge network, clients access sea-view penthouses, yacht berths in Port Hercules, and premium suites at Hotel de Paris Monte-Carlo – even when it’s “fully booked.”
Special access: Paddock Club passes, private yacht parties, VIP after-dark experiences during the Yacht Show or F1.
4. The Maldives – Secluded Luxury in the Indian Ocean
It’s not just far – it’s another world. The Maldives isn’t for bucket-list travelers anymore – it’s for those who want seclusion, full sensory immersion, and white-glove service from the moment they step off the plane.
Why fly private: Commercial options often involve two or three connections, long stopovers, and seaplane delays. Our long-range charter options get you directly to Velana International Airport – with your butler waiting to escort you to your boat or villa.
Where to stay: Velaa Private Island, Soneva Jani, and select residences with private marine biologists and floating breakfasts. PorterJets guests enjoy preferred villa assignments, in-resort upgrades, and complimentary experiences.
Special access: Night diving with manta rays, private overwater cinema screenings, and behind-the-scenes reef conservation experiences.
5. Dubai, UAE – Innovation, Opulence, and Everything Over-the-Top
Dubai was built to impress – and it never stops. With futuristic architecture, Michelin-starred chefs, and adrenaline-spiking experiences, it’s a place where time bends, rules stretch, and luxury is limitless.
Why fly private: Whether landing at Dubai South or Al Maktoum International, private arrivals mean no delays, no lines, and discreet customs. Arrive rested and ready for the city’s nonstop pace – or head straight to the desert for stillness and sand.
Where to stay: We arrange private residences in Palm Jumeirah, presidential suites at Bulgari Resort, or eco-luxury escapes like Al Maha Desert Resort.
Special access: Tickets to Art Dubai, Fashion Week access, bookings at restaurants with six-month waitlists, and desert heli-tours with curated photo ops.
6. St. Tropez, France – Where Riviera Dreams Still Live
Few places carry the cultural cachet of St. Tropez – a sun-soaked icon that’s as famous for its superyachts and soirées as it is for its golden beaches and Provençal charm. It’s a summer staple for creatives, CEOs, and discreet royalty alike, blending barefoot luxury with polished exclusivity.
Why fly private: The nearest commercial airport (Toulon–Hyères) is over 90 minutes away and offers limited international service. Flying private allows direct access to La Môle – Saint-Tropez Airport – a small, private-friendly airstrip just 15 minutes from the harbor.
Where to stay: PorterJets clients book hilltop villas, waterfront estates, and in-demand suites at Byblos and Château de la Messardière – even during high season.
Special access: VIP tables at L’Opéra and Bagatelle, private yacht charters to Pampelonne Beach, backstage passes during Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez, and in-villa mixologists for sunset soirées.
