A private jet charter to Bastia, France, in northern Corsica, offers direct access to Cap Corse, the vineyards of Patrimonio, and unspoilt Mediterranean coastlines. High-end travellers are drawn to luxury sailing from Saint-Florent Marina, cultural festivals such as Porto Latino, and Corsica’s celebrated gastronomy, while boutique venues also host discreet corporate retreats.
LunaJets arranges private flights to Bastia – Poretta Airport (BIA), where FBO services ensure fast and private arrivals. From the airport, chauffeured transfers reach Saint-Florent in around 30 minutes, while helicopter flights reduce the journey to about 10 minutes.

No. Bastia-Poretta Airport operates 24/7 with full runway availability for private jet arrivals and departures. All necessary customs, immigration and handling services are available around the clock. LunaJets will arrange everything for your arrival or departure time.
Can I bring my pet on a private jet to Bastia?
Yes, you can bring pets on a private jet to Bastia. Dogs, cats and ferrets are permitted entry provided they meet EU rules: your animal must be microchipped, vaccinated against rabies, and travel with either an EU Pet Passport or an official veterinary health certificate. If you are arriving from outside the EU, your pet must be declared on arrival and may be checked by border authorities at the private terminal. Certain high-risk or restricted breeds are not accepted. Because requirements can change, your LunaJets advisor will confirm the latest regulations and ensure all documents are in order before your flight.
What visa or entry requirements apply when flying private into Bastia?
Entry rules for Bastia are the same as for any international arrival into France and the wider Schengen area. EU, EEA and Swiss citizens may enter freely without a visa. Travellers from countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Japan or Singapore can usually visit visa-free for up to 90 days within a 180-day period. Nationals of countries outside these groups must obtain a Schengen visa in advance. From 2026, visitors who currently enjoy visa-free entry will also need an ETIAS travel authorisation before travelling.
How far in advance should I book a private jet to Bastia?
Bastia sees surges during summer and local festivals. For best choice of aircraft and schedule, booking several weeks ahead is advisable. Still, LunaJets can often fulfil requests at short notice—even during Bastia’s busy periods.
