Private Jet Yekaterinburg to Porto Heli

Yekaterinburg to Porto Heli covers approximately 1,895 nautical miles, a sector suited to a super mid-size jet such as the Challenger 350, cruising near 43,000 feet across the Urals, the Caucasus and the Aegean in a little over four hours. Koltsovo International Airport serves Yekaterinburg, a major industrial and cultural centre straddling the boundary between Europe and Asia, marked by an obelisk on the city’s outskirts, and known for its avant-garde Constructivist architecture from the Soviet era. On arrival in Greece, passengers land at Porto Heli’s own small airport or Kalamata International Airport, both serving a Peloponnese resort town built around a sheltered bay on the Argolic Gulf. Porto Heli looks out across a narrow strait to the island of Spetses, easily reached by water taxi, while Hydra and the historic town of Nafplio lie within reach further along the coast. Pine forest and olive groves cover the hills behind the bay, lending the area a calm, unhurried character that has made it an increasingly favoured summer anchorage for superyachts in the eastern Mediterranean. History is close by too, with the acoustically celebrated theatre of Epidaurus and the Bronze Age citadel of Mycenae both within about forty minutes of landing. The pressurised, stand-up cabin typical of a super mid-size jet makes a sector of this length comfortable, with room to work or rest properly given the several hours and considerable change in climate involved. This route suits travellers moving between business in the Urals and genuine downtime on the Greek coast, connecting two very different regions within a single direct flight.
