Private Jet Mahé to Lake Como

The route linking Mahé in the Seychelles with Lake Como covers roughly 3,919 nautical miles, a sector that sits comfortably within the capabilities of a Gulfstream G650ER, an aircraft whose long legs and quiet cabin make it particularly well suited to the roughly seven-and-a-half-hour crossing over the Indian Ocean, the Arabian Peninsula and southern Europe. Cruise altitudes touching 51,000 feet allow this aircraft to operate above almost all commercial traffic and a great deal of weather, a genuine advantage on a routing that spans such varied climates. Passengers depart from Seychelles International Airport on Mahé, the archipelago’s main island, known for its granite peaks and beaches that rank among the most photographed in the Indian Ocean. The flight lands at Milan Malpensa Airport, positioned for the transfer north into Lombardy and the lake beyond. Lake Como offers a striking counterpoint to the Seychelles, trading tropical granite outcrops for the limestone cliffs and terraced vineyards that rise steeply from the water’s edge, particularly around the western shore near Argegno. The town of Como itself, at the lake’s southern tip, retains a well-preserved historic centre with a Romanesque-Gothic cathedral that predates many of the villas for which the lake later became famous. For travellers moving between two of the world’s more exclusive island and lake destinations, this route eliminates what would otherwise be a gruelling series of connections through Gulf or European hubs. It suits guests on extended multi-continent itineraries who value continuity of comfort and privacy as much as they value the destinations themselves.
