The New Year is more than a date on the calendar. It is a reset, a pause, a chance to start again somewhere extraordinary. For many, that means leaving routine behind and celebrating in a place that inspires. A private jet New Year travel experience turns that wish into freedom. With Pickajet, you decide when to depart, where to land, and how to welcome the year ahead.
The Peak of Private Aviation
New Year’s week is the busiest time of the year for private aviation. Families reunite, friends celebrate, and executives reward themselves with time away. Slots fill quickly, airports reach capacity, and late planning often means limited choice.
Flying private eliminates uncertainty. It gives you control over timing, destination, and privacy when everyone else is chasing availability. For those who value time above all, private jet New Year travel is the only way to begin the year as it should be.
Where Our Clients Are Heading
Each New Year, our clients choose destinations that reflect their personalities. Some seek snow and serenity, others sun and celebration.

Paris shines brighter than ever in winter. From Michelin-star dining to riverside festivities, it remains the most romantic place to welcome the New Year.Flights from nearby capitals start around €3,800 per hour.

Planning Your Private Jet New Year Travel
If you have never flown private during the holidays, preparation is key. Alpine airports such as Samedan and Courchevel have strict limits on movements. Island destinations like Dubai and the Maldives reach peak capacity from mid-December onward.
Booking at least two weeks in advance secures preferred aircraft, crew, and timing. Flexibility helps too, as small schedule adjustments can make operations smoother. Our team manages all details, from catering to weather monitoring, ensuring your private jet New Year travel unfolds exactly as planned.
Behind the Scenes with Pickajet
During the final week of December, our operations team monitors every flight minute by minute. From slot confirmations to overnight crew rotations, each mission is handled with precision. Clients see only the seamless experience; behind it lies a network of coordination across multiple time zones.
Every operator we work with meets strict Pickajet Standards. Aircraft records, maintenance logs, and pilot qualifications are verified before departure. For us, safety, discretion, and punctuality are not luxuries. They are the minimum.
Tips for First-Time Flyers
Those flying private for New Year for the first time often ask how early to confirm. The answer is always the same: as early as possible. Slots at mountain airports and resort destinations disappear fast. Early confirmation means access to better aircraft and more flexibility on timing.
A quiet tip from our team: those who plan late end up celebrating on the ground.
