The most popular private jets to charter in Switzerland

Although it doesn’t have as many registered private jets as France, Germany or the UK, Switzerland still sees lots of private traffic every year – especially during EBACE, a private aviation convention held in Geneva each year. Other destinations where plenty of private jets hit the runways include business hub Zurich and the ski slopes of the Swiss Alps. Using our own data, we’ve collated the top five private jets to charter in Switzerland.

Pilatus PC-12

At number one is the Swiss-designed Pilatus PC-12, one of a handful of modern single-engine turboprops on the market. While its spacious six- or eight-seat cabin is a huge draw for our charter customers, it’s the aircraft’s impressive range, versatility and economy that give it the edge over competitors. The PC-12 is adept at landing on short runways, including the famous strip at Courchevel in France, and its baggage hold is large enough for ski equipment, making it a popular private jet to charter for ski getaways.

Contact one of our team today to book your next private jet charter on a Pilatus PC-12.

Cessna Citation CJ2

It may not be able to land in Courchevel, but the Cessna Citation CJ2 is still a popular private jet for ski trips. This remarkably versatile aircraft is one of the smallest private jets with an enclosed lavatory and can fly six passengers for almost three hours. Together with the upgraded CJ2+, it’s ideal for short trips around Europe at a competitive charter price.

The aircraft’s roomy interior typically comes with a fully stocked refreshment centre and a host of amenities including power outlets, a passenger flight phone and a hot coffee station. Unlike other light jets, the CJ2 also has ample baggage storage, with enough space for six suitcases in the external hold.

Cessna Citation Mustang

Known as an ‘air taxi’ because of its four-seat cabin’s resemblance to a London black cab, the Cessna Citation Mustang is one of the top private jets to charter in Europe. Despite its size, the Mustang’s range rivals much larger jets and it’s renowned as one of the most cost-effective options for small parties travelling around the continent. The aircraft also provides ample storage for luggage and leisure equipment, such as golf clubs or skis.

Embraer Phenom 300

Brazilian manufacturer Embraer struck the perfect balance between cabin size and performance with the award-winning Phenom 300. With an internal length of over 17 ft and a high ceiling, it has one of the most spacious cabin interiors and baggage holds of any light jet or super-light jet on the market, making it a leading option for charters around the world. 

The Phenom 300 can fly for up to four hours and complete flights like Zurich to Milan or even Istanbul. Its popularity was confirmed once again in February 2022 when the series was named the world’s bestselling light jet for the 10th consecutive year, according to numbers released by the General Aviation Manufacturers Association.

Cessna Citation XLS+

With seating for seven or eight passengers, fully-reclining padded leather seats that are up to four inches wider than its competitors, a largest-in-class cabin and a generous baggage hold with space for golf and ski equipment, it’s no wonder the Cessna Citation XLS+ is one of the top five aircraft to charter in Switzerland. Its cabin features foldaway tables, sliding headrests and built-in drinks holders, making it ideal for both business and leisure travel.
