More recently, Northrop & Johnson said it is partnering with Nicholas Air, which like the other two sells various jet card programs. 

 

This Summer European VIP Jetsetter package includes two weeks along the Amalfi Coast with the following accommodations:

 

  • Private jet charter from the U.S. to Milan.
  • Accommodations at Villa Maria Taglioni on Lake Como for one week.
  • Boating and water sports, guided hikes and personal shopping in Milan.
  • Private jet charter from Milan to Venice.
  • Accommodations at Palazzo Alvera Altana in Venice for one week.
  • Private chef.
  • Private Venetian Taxi hire.
  • Private jet charter from Venice to Naples.
  • Luxury Italian sports car to drive the scenic coastal road.
  • Accommodations at Villa Astor in Sorrento, on the Amalfi Coast for one week.
  • Private one-week yacht charter with Worth Avenue Yachts on the Amalfi Coast.
  • $5,000 onboard food and beverage credit with Worth Avenue Yachts.
  • Private jet charter from Naples to the U.S.

 

For this program, Homebase Abroad has curated a villa portfolio ensuring that only those properties with “the most stunning vistas, exemplary staff, amenities and unique qualities.” Homebase Abroad’s Founder and Director, Mara Solomon, has personally vetted each property in the Portfolio through multiple visits to each home, according to the announcement.

 

There are three villas in this program:

 

Villa Maria Taglioni is the centerpiece of an extraordinary private estate opposite Villa d’Este on Lake Como. The neo-Classical architecture, extensive park and landscaped gardens form a dreamy Old World setting.

 

The Palazzo Alvera Altana is a private home enjoyed by the owners for getaways to Venice. Guest will get to move about like movie stars in a Venetian taxi that leaves from and returns to the villa’s private pier. Private gallery openings to meet selected glass artists, early morning market tours and a hands-on cooking class offer your party the opportunity to understand the culture and history of the Lagoon.

 

Villa Astor on the Amalfi Coast features the views, setting, amenities and activities that have made the area one of Italy’s iconic vacation destinations. At Villa Astor, guests will enjoy gourmet meals by the chef from Don Alfonso, candlelight swims in their private grotto, and a chance to make their own Neapolitan pizza.

 

With this package, Magellan Jets adds two new partners to elevate an already personalized and purely private experience. Clients will feel first-hand the level of service that comes with being a Magellan Jets Member, along with some added perks.

 

Prices start at $500,000 depending on the length of stay, size of jet and departure city. To book your VIP summer vacation to Europe, contact Magellan Jets at 877-550-JETS.
