EFFORTLESS EUROPEAN ESCAPES, WITH FLEXJET

Flexjet aircraft Owners have endless destinations at their disposal, but with warmer temperatures just over the horizon in the Northern hemisphere, the stage is set for Europe’s playground of travel possibilities over the coming months.

Of course with Flexjet, getting there is all part of the appeal, and our world-class Flexjet fleet featuring the Praetor 600, Gulfstream G650 and Sikorsky S-76 is ready to transport you, effortlessly and in ultimate comfort and style.

ALL EYES ON FRANCE

With the Olympic Games taking place in Paris this summer, the city will become the focus of global attention from late July to mid-August. Indeed, for some this may be as much a reason to stay away and escape the crowds, but the French capital has been polished to its absolute finest in the lead-up, with a range of new openings and special events adding to its already considerable charms.

For Flexjet aircraft Owners, a favoured five-star retreat is Cheval Blanc Paris, set within the landmark historic building that was once the La Samaritaine department store. 72 immaculate rooms and suites – including one of the largest penthouses in Paris – offer spectacular views of the Seine and iconic Parisian landmarks.

The hotel hits all the luxury high notes, from its famous butler service to the Dior spa, and a choice of four bars and restaurants, including the three-Michelin starred Plénitude.

If and when the drama and excitement of Paris gets too much, head south to refresh and slow down on the timeless Côte d’Azur, where early May will see the highly anticipated reopening of the Cheval Blanc St-Tropez. The 32-room getaway boasts its own private beach, Guerlain spa and the three-Michelin starred La Vague d’Or restaurant.

For Paris, Flexjet aircraft Owners fly into dedicated private aviation airport Paris Le Bourget (LFPB), and for the Côte d’Azur there’s a choice of several airports including La Môle Saint Tropez (LFTZ), Nice Côte d’Azur (LFMN), and Cannes Mandelieu (LFMD).

AN IDYLLIC ESCAPE IN IBIZA

Ibiza has attracted free-spirited travellers since the 1950s and, beyond its famous nightlife and music scene, the dazzling white island has matured into an elite and idyllic destination for the discerning traveller.

Flexjet aircraft Owners are drawn to the island’s natural beauty, light and a distinctive atmosphere of wellbeing and rejuvenation. This soulful ethos is at the heart of Six Senses Ibiza, a luxury sanctuary resort on the northern tip.

Across the 20-acre site there are 137 accommodations, including cave suites, and 19 exquisite residences and mansions that offer a secluded escape but with the benefit of in-villa chefs, concierge and private spa facilities. Opportunities to wind down or work out are endless, with immersive healing retreats and fitness programmes featuring alongside a wide range of treatments.

Flexjet aircraft Owners fly into Ibiza Airport (LEIB), which is open 24-hours to private jets and offers comprehensive facilities for a quick and seamless arrival.

HIDE AWAY IN PANTELLERIA

The island of Pantelleria is the perfect place to go off-grid and experience a still largely unknown variety of Italian elegance and charm.

Situated to the southwest of Sicily, its rugged coastline of intricate lava rock formations and secluded coves is set in dramatic contrast against the azure Mediterranean. Studded with steaming fumaroles, thermal springs and mud spas, the island’s crystal-clear waters are a paradise for divers and the volcanic soil provides a bountiful harvest, with capers a particularly prized local delicacy.

Flexjet partner Sikelia Luxury Retreat offers Pantelleria’s most exclusive place to stay – an elegant, whitewashed oasis with serene spa treatments, contemporary interiors and just 19 exquisite suites. It also serves imaginative cuisine at its restaurant, or via a private chef’s table experience offshore on the hotel’s Tunisian fishing boat.

While small, the island does offer its own runway at Pantelleria Airport (LICG), so Flexjet Owners can jet directly in and out of this undiscovered gem.
