Useful information

A private jet charter to Palermo with AEROAFFAIRES means a fully tailored air charter solution arranged by an independent broker, not a fractional ownership scheme. Since 1991, AEROAFFAIRES has been one of France’s leading air charter brokers, delivering a personalised quote within two hours of your request. Every flight to or from Sicily is built around your schedule, your party and your privacy.

A bespoke air charter service, not fractional ownership

Unlike shared-ownership programmes such as NetJets, where you buy hours in a single fleet, our brokerage model gives you access to a far wider choice of aircraft for each journey. We compare options across the market and select the right machine for your Palermo flight, whether a very light jet billed around 2,750 USD per hour or a long-range jet at higher rates.

This independence lets us match the aircraft to the mission rather than forcing the mission onto a fixed fleet. Charter costs to Palermo range from 2,750 to 5,100 USD per billable flight hour depending on the category chosen.

Landing by private jet in Palermo

Frequent international origins to Palermo

Most private flights into Palermo originate from a handful of established business and leisure hubs across Europe and beyond. The bulk of arrivals come from Paris, Geneva, Zurich, London and Milan, with a growing share of Middle Eastern and transatlantic traffic during the warmer months. Demand peaks between April and October, when Palermo becomes a stop on the seasonal tour of upscale Mediterranean marinas.

Popular departure points for flights to Palermo

• Paris: roughly 2.3 hours by turboprop, from 9,013 USD.

Choosing the right aircraft for your arrival

The aircraft follows the mission. For shorter corporate trips from Geneva or Milan, a Pilatus PC-12 turboprop or a very light jet keeps costs efficient while reaching Palermo directly. Longer leisure journeys with larger parties call for a wider cabin: a Citation XLS midsize jet for European routes, or a Falcon 900 and ultra long range aircraft for transatlantic legs from the United States or Brazil. We match each private jet to your distance, passenger count and comfort expectations.

Popular routes from Palermo

The shorter legs serve Italy’s most glamorous coastal escapes: Naples, Salerno, Capri, Forte dei Marmi and the marinas of the French Riviera at Cannes, Saint-Tropez and Monaco. These sectors suit light jets and super light jets, efficient for short flights with a small group.
