The route

This short hop across the Tyrrhenian Sea carries a mix of weekend travellers heading to Porto Cervo and owners making quick turnarounds to their Costa Smeralda properties. Given the distance of 158 nm, a Very Light Jet or Light Jet is often enough, while a Midsize Jet adds cabin space and baggage room for a family or small group without changing the flight time by much. Heavier aircraft such as the Super Midsize Jet, Heavy Jet or Ultra Long Range models are usually chosen for positioning convenience or onward travel rather than for this leg alone. Pricing moves mainly with cabin class and with demand: departures from Ciampino, Rome's dedicated business aviation airport, and the tightening of slots at Olbia during the summer season both play into the final figure.
