Aircraft selection and estimated flight times
Aircraft selection: The five aircraft models displayed for each route are the most frequently used on that route in the flight records. Flights across the cities’ main airports are combined when selecting them.
Estimated flight times: Flight times are calculated estimates based on route distance, aircraft performance and recorded durations for the same aircraft model or comparable flights. Times are rounded to the nearest 5 minutes and may vary with routing and operating conditions. Flight-time calibration uses records from 2020 through October 2026.
Flight activity: sources and methodology
Activity methodology: LunaJets filters and enriches the recorded flights by matching them to airports, cities and aircraft categories, then aggregating them. Figures cover 1 January to 31 December 2025. The figures include private and business jets, VIP aircraft and turboprops. Helicopters and scheduled airline flights are excluded. The data was generated on 14 October 2026. This generation date is separate from the activity year.
Definitions: A private aviation movement is one recorded departure or arrival at an airport serving a city. A flight between Santorini and another city counts once in Santorini’s route total, whether arriving or departing. A return flight counts as a separate movement. A connected city is a distinct city with at least one qualifying private aviation flight to or from Santorini during 2025. The connected-city count covers the routes included in this dataset, not just those displayed in the table.
Busiest periods: Busiest periods identify a significant seasonal concentration in recorded movements in both directions during 2025. Isolated spikes are filtered out. Year-round means no qualifying seasonal concentration was identified, although activity can vary between months. A classification requires at least 30 annual movements, 99% statistical significance and an average monthly activity rate at least 1.75 times the rest of the year. Single-month periods also require recurrence checks using January to August 2026 records.
What is the best airport for private flights to and from Santorini?
For direct entry to the Greek Cyclades, Santorini Airport (JTR/LGSR) is the principal choice for private jet travelers. The airfield is situated on the eastern part of the island, just 6 km from Fira, the capital. This proximity allows for quick transfers to the hotels and villas overlooking the caldera.

What can you do in Santorini?
Everything about Santorini screams luxury and relaxation. Don't let its small size fool you, there are plenty of options for a good time in this Greece paradise.
Enjoy Sweeping Views from the Prophet Elias Monastery
The Prophet Elias Monastery is situated roughly 500 metres above sea level and offers some of the most sweeping panoramic views of the entire island. It is the only male monastery in Hydra and is one of the most historically significant sites found here.
Luxuriate on Perivolos Beach
One of the elements of Santorini that makes it different from other areas of the world is that it has so many unique characteristics, and the black sands of Perivolos Beach ranks among them. The sunsets seen from these black sand beaches are unparalleled and provide startling contrast with the bright blue waters of the Aegean Sea.
Visit the Museum of Prehistoric Thera
The Museum of Prehistoric Thera provides a historical retrospective of Santorini, with plenty of exhibits touting Greek culture, archaeological wonders, and more. It is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Santorini for those who travel to the island to ingratiate themselves into Greek history.

Santorini (Greece) is the height of luxury in so many ways, including when it comes to high-end lodging options.
Where should you eat in Santorini?
Greece and especially Santorini has a vibrant cuisine scene, with options ranging from authentic Greek spices to European fusion that is as creative as it is delicious.
Koukoumavlos
Koukoumavlos is as much an experience as it is an exercise in fine dining. The setting is as elegant as restaurants come, and menu inclusions are a conglomeration of successful gastronomic creations.
Selene
Selene is another option for upscale dining that has 35 years of experience serving visitors and residents alike. One of the best parts about Selene is the options that come out of the restaurant's antique wine cave, which pair expertly with the food.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are there other airports on Santorini island for private jets?
No. Santorini International (JTR / LGSR) is the island’s only airport and the sole gateway for private jets. It handles all commercial and business aviation traffic. For access to other Cycladic islands, alternatives include Mykonos Airport or Paros Airport.
What transfers can I arrange from Santorini Airport into the city or nearby destinations?
From the private terminal, a chauffeured car can take you to Fira, the island’s capital, in about 15 minutes, or to Oia in around 25 minutes. Transfers are also available to resorts across the island, including Imerovigli and Kamari. Helicopter transfers can be arranged on request, offering fast links to Mykonos, Crete, or Athens. Your LunaJets advisor will organise the most efficient option to match your itinerary.
Can I bring pets on a private jet to Santorini? What are the rules?
Yes. Pets can travel in the cabin with you when flying private to Santorini, provided they meet EU entry requirements. They must be microchipped, vaccinated against rabies, and accompanied by a valid veterinary health certificate or EU pet passport. For a first rabies vaccination, a 21-day waiting period applies before travel, while boosters are valid immediately if given within the coverage period. Inform your LunaJets advisor in advance so we can confirm the latest rules and ensure a smooth arrival in Greece.
How far in advance should I book a private jet to Santorini?
It’s best to book several weeks in advance to secure your preferred aircraft and slots, especially in the summer months, when Santorini is one of the busiest leisure destinations in Greece. Demand peaks from June to September, and parking space for private jets is limited at the airport. That said, LunaJets often succeeds in arranging flights to Santorini at short notice, even when the island is at its busiest.
Are there curfews or restricted operating hours at Santorini Airport for private jets?
Santorini Airport (JTR / LGSR) is open 24 hours a day, but in practice private jet operations usually take place between 06:00 and 23:00 local time. Outside these hours, services are limited and require advance coordination.
