Charter a Private Jet to Crete

From parties to beachfront restaurants, from sophisticated dining experiences to traditional tapas, from luxury hotels to mystical yoga retreats, Ibiza has something for everyone.
It’s an experience that stays with you long after you’ve left and makes it impossible not to want to return.

Crete Airport

Travelling by private jet is one of the most comfortable and efficient ways to reach Crete and explore the island at your own pace.
Crete is served by three airports capable of supporting private aviation operations. Heraklion International Airport (LGIR), located near the island's capital, accommodates private aircraft of all categories and is the most popular gateway to the island.
Due to high seasonal demand, particularly during the summer months, we recommend arranging your private jet charter well in advance to secure the most suitable flight schedule.

Additional options include Chania International Airport (LGSA), which provides convenient access to western Crete, and Sitia Public Airport (LGST), a smaller airport serving the eastern part of the island.

Crete by Helicopter

For travellers wishing to explore the island from a unique perspective, helicopter transfers offer a fast and scenic way to move between Crete's most exclusive destinations.
Whether arriving in Heraklion, Athens, Santorini or another Greek island, Cielo Aviation can arrange bespoke helicopter transfers, allowing you to enjoy spectacular aerial views of the Aegean before landing directly at your next destination.

Pristine beaches, ancient heritage and spectacular landscapes

Crete is a destination that appeals to every sense. With over 1,000 kilometres of coastline, extraordinary beaches, millennia of history and some of Greece's most important archaeological sites, the island offers an experience unlike any other.

Whether you are seeking a romantic escape, a family holiday, a wellness retreat or a vibrant summer getaway, Crete effortlessly adapts to every style of travel.

Heraklion, the island's largest city, provides an ideal base from which to explore the region. The area is home to elegant resorts, renowned wellness centres and easy access to many of Crete's most celebrated attractions.

From here, Cielo Aviation can arrange helicopter transfers across the island, while private yacht charters offer an unforgettable way to discover secluded bays and hidden beaches accessible only by sea.
