Private jet bookings are up 12% in Q2 of 2025, and that momentum shows no signs of slowing as luxury travelers opt for curated luxury escapes over-crowded commercial lines.
According to global private aviation leader Chapman Freeborn, demand is surging for perennial favorites like:
· French Riviera ·Mykonos ·Ibiza ·Amalfi Coast ·Maldives ·Montenegro ·Hamptons
But the most interesting trend is the spike in lesser-known, harder-to-reach destinations such as Corsica, Ischia, and Scotland’s Hebrides, which are now more accessible thanks to private aircrafts.
More travelers, including families and creative professionals, are looking for flexible, high-touch experiences that let them skip the layovers, choose their own departure times and land right where the adventure begins. Chapman Freeborn is meeting this demand with unique offerings like its Blind Booking program available from Europe. Travelers choose a budget and travel dates, and the destination is revealed just before departure — turning luxury travel into an unexpected adventure.
Rates start around $12,000 per booking*. That price can cover a group of up to eight, making it a compelling option for families or friends traveling together.
*based on a single aircraft booking, no “per person” fees.
