Private Jet Bodrum to Tempe

Bodrum to Tempe is a sector of roughly 6,013 nautical miles, long enough to sit at the boundary between heavy and ultra-long-range aircraft, and most operators will reach for a Gulfstream G650ER or Global 6000 to cover it, cruising at altitudes up to around 45,000 feet for a flight that generally runs just over ten hours. Departures use Milas-Bodrum Airport, serving a Turkish Aegean resort town known for its whitewashed hillside houses, its Crusader-era castle overlooking the harbour and a nightlife scene that has made it one of the country’s busiest summer destinations. Touching down at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport brings travellers into Tempe, where Tempe Town Lake anchors a city built on the edge of the Sonoran Desert and Arizona State University supplies much of the surrounding energy, employment and culture. Bodrum’s marina culture, filled with gulets and sailing yachts, finds an unexpected echo in the rowing and paddleboarding scene that has grown up around Tempe’s own artificial lake, even if the climates and landscapes otherwise bear little resemblance to one another. A sector of this length rewards a cabin designed for proper rest, with a flat-bed option and a galley capable of more than a single light meal service across ten hours aloft. This pairing suits Turkish business travellers and property owners along the Bodrum peninsula who maintain interests in the American Southwest, as well as holidaymakers bridging two very different, but equally sun-drenched, destinations without the burden of connecting through a major European or East Coast hub. The region’s olive groves and ancient ruins at nearby Halicarnassus add a layer of historical depth that complements the beaches and marina life travellers typically come for.
