From Hong Kong to the Swiss Alps: An Annual Family Tradition Above the Clouds
Every December, while Hong Kong remains warm, your family quietly boards a Gulfstream G700 to Zurich. In 8 hours, you'll step onto the slopes of Courchevel—the winter retreat of European royalty and witness to your family's annual tradition.
12 years serving ultra-high-net-worth circles, iFlyPlus aggregates 11,800+ business jets, 6,600+ luxury hotels, and 5,000+ airports across 186 countries, creating end-to-end European ski solutions for Hong Kong and Greater China's elite families.
Why Charter a Private Jet to Switzerland
From Hong Kong, commercial flights require connections via Dubai or Doha, taking 14-16 hours total. A private jet flies direct in 8-10 hours, with:
- Private Space: Family-exclusive cabin, children rest onboard, arrive ready for the slopes
- Flexible Timing: Coordinate with ski season peaks, depart on your schedule
- Luggage Freedom: Ski equipment and gear—no checked baggage limits
- Seamless Connections: Zurich FBO fast-track clearance, private transfer waiting on tarmac to Courchevel
