Alghero is the airport for the north-west corner of Sardinia, and it has a runway built for more than holiday flights. Private jet charter at Alghero Airport means business jets on a 3,000 metre strip, with the very largest aircraft needing special approval first.
Private landings and parking are requested in advance, and Charter-A deals with that request for you. We confirm the arrangements at the quote stage, so you know before you commit if your chosen aircraft can be accepted.
The airport is at Fertilia and serves Alghero and Stintino. Charter-A quotes only once those points are settled.
Flying privately to Alghero
The runway is 3,000 metres by 45, so the usual range of business jets is comfortable here. Large aircraft in codes E and F need special approval, and the largest wingspan accepted is 52 metres, so a very large cabin should be checked early. Private landings and parking must be requested at least eight hours before arrival, and Charter-A sends that request for you. The tower is listed as staffed round the clock, but private departures between 19:00 and 04:30 need six hours' notice. Customs and handling agents are also confirmed at booking.
