- PrivateFly offers whistlestop luxury ski adventure by private jet, taking in highlights of the USA, Canada and Japan -
Bored of the same vistas every day on your winter break? For intrepid skiers, looking for more variety in their ski experience (and with an adventurous budget to match), PrivateFly has teamed up with Black Tomato to offer the ultimate 8-day luxury ski tour, by private jet. The trip takes in the wilds of Wyoming; the high-octane slopes of Whistler; and some of the world's finest powder in Japan.
The once-in-a-lifetime ski tour can start from London or New York, and includes private jet travel, luxury accommodation in the three ski locations, and VIP ground transfers.
Carol Cork, marketing director of PrivateFly, comments: “For those looking to experience the world's best skiing, one country simply isn't enough. So we teamed up with Black Tomato's travel experts to offer a private jet tour, taking in three prestigious, but very different, ski resorts, over eight days.
“We regularly fly clients to ski resorts by private jet, as it can save considerable travel time, and maximise their time on the slopes. But this tour takes that to the extreme, giving a VIP taste of the best skiing and luxury accommodation the Northern Hemisphere has to offer, with the speed, comfort and convenience of a private jet. With private aviation, the itinerary can be totally bespoke, fast and direct. This is a truly memorable, ski trip of a lifetime, and the journey is part of the luxury experience.”
“This is our suggested trip itinerary from London. The trip includes flights in a Bombardier Global Express, a spacious long range jet with a luxury VIP cabin; bathroom with shower; large luggage capacity; VIP catering; flight attendant; and latest onboard entertainment:
1) LUXURY LODGE HIDEOUT: JACKSON HOLE, USA
“Your trip starts from London Luton Airport, flying in a luxury long range jet, across the Atlantic, to Jackson Hole, in Wyoming. Private ground transport will take you to Wyoming, to the remote and luxurious lodge Amangani, to spend two days experiencing some of the best backcountry skiing anywhere in the US.
2) HIGH-OCTANE SKI: WHISTLER, CANADA
“From Jackson Hole, you'll head North in your private jet to Vancouver, Canada. Your destination is the nearby iconic resort of Whistler, offering some of the best high-octane ski and apres-ski, anywhere in the world. You'll stay in the Fairmont Chateau Whistler, a ski-in, ski-out resort at the base of Blackcomb mountain with spectacular views over the Rockies.
3) POWDER POWER: MOUNT NAEBA, JAPAN
“From Vancouver, you'll be whisked in your private jet to Tokyo, Japan. There, you'll enjoy the stunning scenery and rich culture of Japan's Mount Naeba ski resort, staying in the luxury Naeba Prince Hotel. The hotel offers direct access to the slopes of Naeba and Kagura, plus the added bonus of authentic, natural hot springs.
“Your private jet will then be waiting to fly you back to London, in privacy and luxury.”
The tour is priced from £21,680 per person, based on a group of 12 people travelling together in a Global Express aircraft from London. Or from $18,550 from New York, based on 12 people travelling together in a Gulfstream GIV aircraft.
