Step 1 — Hotel Coordination

Our team coordinates directly with you — or through the Four Seasons concierge desk — to arrange a private transfer from the hotel to our helipad. The drive is approximately 30 to 35 minutes from the Four Seasons Astir Palace Hotel, depending on traffic.

Step 2 — Helipad Arrival & Briefing

You arrive at our private helipad — not a commercial terminal. A brief, relaxed safety walkthrough is conducted before boarding. Luggage is loaded directly onto the aircraft.

Step 3 — Departure & Aegean Flight

Your aircraft departs on your schedule. The flight crosses the Aegean with panoramic island views from the moment you leave the mainland. All overwater segments are flown with twin-engine aircraft.

Step 4 — Island Helipad Arrival

You land at the island helipad. A pre-arranged ground transfer can deliver you to your villa, yacht, or hotel within minutes of landing. Total elapsed time from the Four Seasons lobby is typically far shorter than the airport or ferry alternative.
