Hire a Private Jet to Zurich

A private jet charter to Zurich brings you to the heart of Switzerland’s financial capital. Within minutes of landing, you can be at Paradeplatz for a meeting in the banking district or along Bahnhofstrasse browsing its flagship boutiques. Many business itineraries extend to nearby Zug, about 30–40 minutes by chauffeured car, while Lake Zurich’s grand hotels offer a backdrop for relaxation, and the city’s cultural side comes alive at the Kunsthaus or the Opera House.

LunaJets arranges private flights to Zurich Airport’s General Aviation Centre, with discreet VIP facilities and private customs clearance. From there, chauffeured transfers bring you directly into the city, while optional helicopter flights cut travel times to alpine resorts such as St. Moritz or Gstaad from several hours by road to under an hour by air.

With two decades of experience, LunaJets was the first European private jet broker to receive Argus® certification, reflecting rigorous safety standards and professional integrity. In Zurich, this expertise ensures punctual arrivals for executive meetings, discreet negotiations in the banking district, and efficient access to Davos during the World Economic Forum or other high-profile financial events.

I just wanted to add that Jules Guillot deserves a special 'Mention In Despatches' for his unruffled, smooth, efficient & patient handling of a difficult situation. He really did score 10/10 on all fronts. He remained in the case - phone and otherwise - right up until I was airborne.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a visa to enter Switzerland?

Visa requirements depend on your nationality. If you’re from a visa-exempt country (such as the U.S., U.K., or most of Europe), you do not need a visa for short stays of up to 90 days—regardless of whether you arrive via private jet or commercial airline. If your nationality requires a Schengen visa, you must apply for and receive one before traveling. Our team at LunaJets can assist with confirming your requirements and helping with visa arrangements if needed.

Do private jet travelers have to go through security screening or long check-in processes like airline passengers at Zurich?

No. At the General Aviation terminal, passengers can drive directly to the aircraft and complete minimal formalities on site. Boarding typically takes only a few minutes.

Are there any limits on the size or type of private jet that can fly into Zurich?

No. Zurich Airport’s runways and facilities accommodate all business aircraft, from light jets to ultra-long-range jets and VIP airliners.

When are the peak periods or special events that increase private jet traffic to Zurich?

Demand peaks in January for the World Economic Forum in Davos, during the winter ski season, and throughout the summer holidays. Slots and parking at Zurich can become limited during these times, so booking early is highly recommended.

Can private jets land or take off at Zurich at any time, or are there noise curfews?

Zurich Airport enforces strict operating hours: private flights are permitted from 06:00 to 23:00 local time. No takeoffs or landings are allowed outside these hours, with no exceptions. Travelers who require late-night arrivals typically adjust their schedule to fit within Zurich’s permitted timeframe.
