Book your private jet flight to Palermo
Palermo is the capital of Sicily — a city of 700,000 inhabitants that bears within it three millennia of superimposed civilisations: Greek, Roman, Arab, Norman, and Spanish Baroque. Palermo Falcone-Borsellino airport (PMO) has a general aviation terminal with FBO, 35 minutes from the city centre. By private jet, Palermo is 2h30 from Paris, 1h20 from Milan, and 1h05 from Rome. Sicily is Italy’s largest island and richest in contrasts.
flight_takeoffBook a flightThe private jet clientele in Palermo is split between cultural travellers (Sicily is an open-air museum — Selinunte, Agrigento, Syracuse, the Valley of the Temples) and gastronomic tourists (Sicilian cuisine is one of the most complex and colourful in Italy, blending Arab, Norman, and Spanish influences). The Etna vineyards (north side, accessible from Catania) and the Marsala and Nero d’Avola producers attract a wine-connoisseur clientele.
Palermo offers architecture unique in Europe: the Norman Cathedral, the Norman Palace with its Palatine Chapel and golden mosaics (12th century), La Martorana and its Byzantine mosaics, the historic markets of Ballarò and Vucciria, and the Kalsa promenade (restored Arab-Norman quarter). Sicilian street food (arancini, panelle, sfincione, cannoli) is a heritage in its own right.

All your questions about private jets to Palermo
Between £9,000 and £17,000 one way, a 2h30 flight. Palermo is a destination experiencing rapid upmarket development — prestige hotels and villas on the north coast (Cefalù, Caccamo) and in the Val di Mazara are being booked further and further in advance.
The Valley of the Temples (Agrigento, UNESCO) is 2 hours by road from PMO — the Greek Doric temples (5th century BC), including the Temple of Concordia, are among the best preserved in the Greek world. Private nocturnal visits are organised (the Temple of Concordia illuminated at midnight is a unique experience). Some clients make the Palermo–Agrigento round trip in a single day from Rome or Milan.
Palermo (PMO) is the gateway to the north and west — Cefalù, Monreale, Agrigento. Catania (CTA) is the gateway to the south-east and Etna — Taormina, Noto, Ragusa (Sicilian Baroque), Syracuse. For a full circuit of Sicily, use both airports with a repositioning flight (35 min PMO–CTA). Both are served from Paris by midsize jets.
Day 1: Ballarò Market (8 am), arancini and panelle, visit the Palatine Chapel. Lunch at Osteria dei Vespri (creative Sicilian cuisine). Afternoon: Martorana and markets. Day 2: Monreale (Norman mosaics) + Corvo di Salaparuta winery. Day 3: Road to Agrigento or Cefalù. This programme is ideal for 3–5 nights from Paris on a return jet.
Absolutely — Sicily produces exceptional and often underrated wines: Nero d'Avola (powerful, spiced red), Nerello Mascalese from Etna (Burgundian elegance at 900 m altitude), Carricante white from Etna, Marsala Vergine (oxidative wine from Marsala). Reference producers: Benanti (Etna), Planeta (Menfi), COS (Vittoria), Donnafugata (Marsala).
Villa Igiea (Rocco Forte Hotels, 1900, Art Nouveau architecture on the sea) is Palermo's grande dame — renovated in 2021, pool with views over the gulf, Mediterranean garden. Grand Hotel Piazza Borsa (historic centre, 14th-century palace) is a more urban option. For private residence lovers, the agriturismo of the Madonie mountains (south of Cefalù) offer an authentic Sicilian immersion.
