VistaJet has unveiled its Private World experiences for summer 2026, offering its members an escape from the heat to the “edge of the extraordinary.”

Since 2020, the business aviation operator has offered customers premium trips and experiences, such as exclusive concerts with famed opera singer Andrea Bocelli and stays at luxury resorts around the world. This summer, it will send them to the fjords of Norway, the Arctic Circle, and the Scottish Highlands, and other cold-weather destinations.

VistaJet said that between May and September 2025, there was a spike in demand for such trips. It saw 211 percent growth in flights to Albania during that stretch, as well as increases of 17 percent to Iceland, 8 percent to Sweden, and 4 percent to Denmark and Czechia.

In response, it is offering journeys to “off-grid wilderness, polar landscapes, and elevated escape experiences” with its floating fleet of jets positioned globally. The company says it can put aircraft at any of 2,400 airports in as little as 24 hours.

VistaJet in February placed a firm order for 40 Bombardier Challenger 3500s and has options for 120 more as it continues to upgrade its fleet.

VistaJet’s 2026 Private World

This summer, the private aviation operator is offering journeys within North America as well as across Africa, Europe, and the Arctic.

In Norway, customers can take a yacht trip through the Lofoten Islands, train with polar divers and explorers, and e-foil across the fjords. The three-night Scottish Highlands stay includes a walk through a waterfall and other adventurous activities.

A nine-day trip across Alaska will take members up in a helicopter to the exclusive Sheldon Chalet in Denali National Park, where they can climb glaciers and rappel from cliffs. Another helicopter will fly guests over Chugach State Park for a glacial kayak tour.

VistaJet is offering experiences for customers who enjoy the heat as well. One journey to Namibia and Madagascar includes a hot-air balloon ride over red dunes and a drive to an exclusive desert camp under the stars. Guests will be able to fly a helicopter over Madagascar’s jungles and islands.
