Summer Private Jet Destinations from San Francisco – 2025 Travel Trends

In 2025, private jet travel from the San Francisco Bay Area is booming. With global business ties and easy access to wine country, luxury retreats, and transpacific routes, San Francisco remains one of the busiest hubs for summer jet charters.

Where San Francisco Flyers Are Headed This Summer

  • Napa Valley & Lake Tahoe – Weekend getaways to these regional escapes are especially popular with short-hop light jets like the Phenom 100 and Citation CJ3.
  • Hawaii – Private nonstop flights to Maui, Kauai, and the Big Island are in high demand, often utilizing Gulfstream GIV and Falcon 2000 aircraft for comfort and range.
  • New York & Miami – Cross-country business and leisure routes remain strong. These flights often include luxury amenities and Wi-Fi-equipped midsize jets.
  • Tokyo & London – Long-haul charters are increasing, especially among business executives and ultra-high-net-worth families seeking tailored summer holidays.
  • Vancouver & Aspen – Short international hops and mountain destinations are trending, favored for their mild climate and premium accommodations.

Departures & Preferred Aircraft

San Francisco International (SFO), Oakland International (OAK), and San Jose’s Signature FBO are top departure points. Charter clients increasingly request Bombardier Challenger 350s, Citation Latitude, and Global 6000 jets for longer summer trips.

Notable 2025 Summer Trends

San Francisco travelers are prioritizing experience-rich itineraries—vineyard tours, multi-stop European trips, and luxury family vacations. Empty leg opportunities are also driving more spontaneous bookings, especially from Bay Area entrepreneurs and entertainers.
