Hire a Private Jet to Bodrum

Yes. Turkey applies the same entry rules to private jet passengers as to commercial travellers. Many nationalities, including most EU countries, the UK, and the US, can enter visa-free for stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period. In these cases, no e-Visa or electronic authorisation is needed—only a valid passport. For others, an official Turkish e-Visa must be obtained online before departure, as visas on arrival are no longer available. Your passport should be valid for at least six months beyond your date of entry, with one blank page for stamping. The LunaJets team will confirm the exact requirements for your nationality and ensure everything is arranged ahead of your flight.

Bodrum is busiest from late spring to early autumn, with July and August seeing the heaviest traffic. The airport is slot-coordinated, so last-minute requests can face delays or limited availability. For summer trips, especially around holidays, it’s best to secure your aircraft and slots six to eight weeks in advance. Outside peak season, booking two to three weeks ahead usually gives you a good choice of aircraft. At LunaJets, we also regularly arrange last-minute flights to Bodrum and can often find solutions even during the busiest periods.

Yes. You can bring your pet to Bodrum on a private jet, but Turkey enforces strict entry rules. Dogs and cats must have an ISO-compliant microchip, a valid rabies vaccination given at least 15 days before travel, and a veterinary health certificate. Depending on your departure country, a rabies antibody (FAVN) test may also be required. Certain breeds are banned and cannot be brought into Turkey under any circumstances. These include Pitbull Terrier, Staffordshire Terrier, Japanese Tosa, Dogo Argentino, Fila Brasileiro, and American Bully. Rules are updated regularly, so your LunaJets advisor will confirm the latest requirements for your pet and ensure you have the correct paperwork before your flight.

Yes. Helicopter transfers can be arranged directly from Milas–Bodrum Airport. The flight to Bodrum town takes about 15 minutes, while popular resorts such as Yalıkavak or Six Senses Kaplankaya are also within a short hop. Some coastal properties offer private helipads, and others can be reached with a quick air-and-boat combination. Booking in advance is recommended during the summer season, and your LunaJets advisor can organise the transfer alongside your jet charter.

Milas–Bodrum Airport (BJV) is the main gateway for private flights to Bodrum. It has a dedicated General Aviation Terminal and is open 24/7, with no night curfew. However, the airport is slot-coordinated, so landing and departure times must be pre-approved, especially in summer when demand peaks. Some travellers also consider flying to Kos (KGS) in Greece and connecting by ferry, but for private jet operations into Bodrum itself, Milas–Bodrum is the only practical choice.
