Private Jet Mallorca to Lake Como

The route from Mallorca to Lake Como spans roughly 469 nautical miles, carrying travellers from the sun-drenched Balearic Islands across the western Mediterranean to the lakes of northern Italy. A light or mid-size jet is well suited to a sector of this length, with the Embraer Phenom 300 and the Cessna Citation CJ4 offering the speed and comfort to complete the journey in around an hour and a quarter. Both climb readily to altitudes near 43,000 feet, crossing the sea and the coastline of Liguria to deliver passengers from island to lake with the minimum of delay. Departures are handled from Palma de Mallorca Airport, where dedicated private facilities allow travellers to avoid the summer crowds for a swift and discreet departure over the island’s famous bay. The journey concludes at Milan Malpensa Airport, the most convenient gateway for the shores of Lake Como, from where guests can continue by road or helicopter to the lakeside. Lake Como itself is a slender ribbon of deep blue water framed by wooded mountains and dotted with the villas and gardens that have drawn aristocrats, artists and film-makers for generations, with the elegant town of Bellagio at its heart. This route suits travellers moving between two of the Mediterranean’s most fashionable summer destinations, yacht and villa guests with interests in both, and those combining island and lake within a single itinerary. A private flight links the Balearics and the Italian lakes in little more than an hour, sparing passengers the tedium of connections and delivering them refreshed to the shore.
