Private Jet Burbank to Bodrum

Hollywood Burbank Airport is the departure point for one of the longer routes on this list, a 6,126-nautical-mile private crossing to Bodrum that requires genuine ultra-long-range capability. The Gulfstream G650ER, with its ability to cruise as high as 51,000 feet, is a natural fit, riding above much of the traffic and weather that lower-flying aircraft encounter across the Atlantic and the length of the Mediterranean, and contributing to a notably calm cabin environment across what is typically an eleven-hour-plus flight. Los Angeles’ entertainment industry has long maintained ties to the Mediterranean, and Bodrum’s rise as a fashionable summer destination among European and increasingly international visitors has not gone unnoticed among Burbank’s private aviation clientele. Milas-Bodrum Airport places arriving passengers within easy reach of Bodrum Castle’s museum of underwater archaeology and the ruins of ancient Halicarnassus, while the surrounding peninsula’s beach clubs and marinas at Yalıkavak and Türkbükü offer a pace considerably removed from the entertainment industry’s usual haunts. Given the distance involved, most operators recommend an overnight departure timed to allow passengers a full period of rest in the G650ER’s berthable seating, arriving in Bodrum ready for the coast rather than depleted from a day spent travelling. For studio executives and touring artists alike, the ability to depart directly from Burbank, without the drive to a larger Los Angeles-area airport, adds a further layer of convenience to an already demanding journey. Burbank’s proximity to the studios means many charters on this route are booked around tight production schedules, making the reliability of a dedicated long-range aircraft especially valuable.
