Private Jet Cavallo to Lexington

The Cavallo to Lexington route covers approximately 4,110 nautical miles, an unusual and demanding sector given its origin at the Cavallo Helistrip off the Sardinia-Corsica strait, a small helipad serving the exclusive Cavallo island. Travellers typically begin with a short helicopter transfer, aboard an aircraft such as the Airbus H130, to a suitable regional airport in Sardinia or mainland Italy, where a long-range jet such as the Gulfstream G550 or Bombardier Global 6000 takes over for the transatlantic crossing to Kentucky. Cruising near 45,000 feet for much of the roughly eight-hour jet sector, the aircraft crosses the North Atlantic and much of eastern North America before descending into the bluegrass region. Arrival into Blue Grass Airport places passengers minutes from downtown Lexington, close to Keeneland Racecourse and the horse farms that surround the city. The shift from the Mediterranean’s crystalline waters to Kentucky’s rolling, limestone-rich pastureland is about as complete a change of scenery as any route in the network offers. Given the combination of helicopter and jet legs, this itinerary is arranged as a single seamless transfer, sparing travellers the coordination that arranging each leg separately would otherwise require. This route serves the small but well-travelled group who divide time between the exclusivity of Cavallo’s summer season and business or personal interests in Kentucky’s thoroughbred and bourbon industries, a pairing that exists almost nowhere else in private aviation. Because the entire multi-leg itinerary, helicopter and jet alike, is coordinated as one continuous booking, travellers need only appear at the helipad and let the logistics unfold around them.
