The route

This route links a major Swiss business hub with one of the Mediterranean's most exclusive coastal addresses, and it draws both short city breaks and longer summer stays near Porto Cervo. Given the relatively short distance of 420 nm, a Very Light Jet or Light Jet already covers the sector comfortably, making the Citation Mustang or Citation CJ3 sensible choices for smaller groups, while a Midsize Jet such as the Citation XLS adds cabin space and range margin without a steep price jump. Larger cabins, from the Super Midsize Jet up to the Ultra Long Range Gulfstream G550, suit travellers who want more room or who are continuing their itinerary beyond Sardinia. Pricing is shaped by aircraft category, by positioning costs from Zurich's general aviation facilities, and by demand at Olbia during the warmer months.
