Airport Information
Munich Munchen Airport
Munich (Munchen) Airport serves as the primary gateway for private jet charter to and from Munich and the wider Bavarian region. Located approximately 28 kilometres north-east of the city centre, the airport is Germany’s second busiest aviation hub after Frankfurt and handles a substantial mix of long-haul international traffic, European airline operations and business aviation movements.
From an operational perspective, Munich Airport is capable of accommodating the full range of business aviation aircraft. The airport operates two parallel runways and supports aircraft ranging from turboprops and light business jets through to large cabin and ultra long-range aircraft operating intercontinental routes.
Munich is also a slot coordinated airport, meaning arrival and departure slots must be requested in advance for both commercial and private aircraft movements. Despite this coordination requirement, the airport’s scale and infrastructure generally allow private aviation traffic to be handled efficiently throughout the year.
The airport operates 24 hours a day, although stricter noise regulations apply during the night period between 22:00 and 06:00. These restrictions can influence aircraft selection and scheduling for late evening arrivals or early morning departures.
Dedicated general aviation handling services support private jet operations separate from the main airline terminals, providing discreet passenger processing and crew services.
Munich Airport is widely used by private jet travellers visiting southern Germany and the Bavarian Alps. Destinations such as Garmisch-Partenkirchen, the Zugspitze and the ski resorts of the Austrian Tyrol can all be reached within a relatively short ground transfer from the airport, while transfers to central Munich typically take around 30 to 40 minutes depending on traffic.

Oberpfaffenhofen Airport
Munich Executive Airport at Oberpfaffenhofen is one of Germany’s most important business aviation airports and serves as a secondary gateway for private jet travel to and from Munich. Located approximately 22 kilometres west of the city centre near Weßling, the airport operates primarily as a base for corporate aviation, research aircraft and specialised aerospace operations.
Unlike Munich Airport, which functions as a major international airline hub, Oberpfaffenhofen is focused largely on business aviation activity. The airport’s runway allows operations by turboprops, light jets and midsize business aircraft commonly used for corporate travel within Germany and across Europe, while larger long-range jets typically use Munich Airport.
Oberpfaffenhofen sits within the wider aerospace campus that hosts organisations including the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and Airbus Defence and Space. This environment has made the airport a long-established centre for research aviation and corporate flight operations in southern Germany.
The airport operates primarily between 06:00 and 22:00 local time and is classified as a special airport, meaning many movements are approved individually rather than operating under unrestricted commercial access. For private aviation operators familiar with the region, Oberpfaffenhofen can provide a quieter and efficient alternative to the main airline hub.
Road transfers to central Munich typically take around 25 to 35 minutes depending on traffic and final destination within the city.

Zadar Airport
Private jet flights to and from Zadar operate through Zadar Airport (ZAD / LDZD), located near the village of Zemunik Donji, approximately 15 kilometres east of Zadar’s historic old town. Positioned along Croatia’s northern Dalmatian coast, the airport serves as one of the principal aviation gateways for travellers heading to the region’s island archipelagos and national parks.
Zadar Airport accommodates both scheduled airline traffic and private jet charter movements, with infrastructure capable of supporting a wide range of business aviation aircraft. Private jet operators can arrange ground handling services including passenger assistance, aircraft parking, refuelling coordination and onward ground transport.
For private aviation itineraries along the Adriatic, Zadar Airport offers particularly convenient access to Croatia’s northern Dalmatian islands, including Pag, Ugljan, Dugi Otok and the Kornati archipelago. Many travellers arriving by private jet continue onward to these destinations by yacht, speedboat or helicopter transfer from nearby coastal marinas.
The airport also provides direct access to some of Croatia’s most celebrated inland landscapes. Krka National Park, known for its waterfalls and river canyons, lies within easy reach by road, while the wider Dalmatian region connects efficiently with neighbouring destinations across Italy, Slovenia and Central Europe. As a result, private jet charter flights to and from Zadar often form part of broader Mediterranean travel itineraries linking the Adriatic with major European aviation centres.
