“These are places where commercial aviation simply does not go,” explains the management team of The Jet Collection.

Nukutepipi, the private island of Guy Laliberté, is one of the new destinations offered by the brokerage company in private jets based on the Côte d’Azur, such as Socotra in Yemen or Cavallo Island in Corsica.

For 160,000 euros ($ 257,000), eight passengers or less can take off from New York aboard a Global Bombardier 7500, land in Tahiti after 12 hours of flight and redecoll towards the atoll of the Quebec billionaire in light jet.

“Each route is tailor -made, with aircraft selected depending on the distance, comfort and schedules,” said The Jet Collection in its August 12 press release.

Nukutepipi is located 700 kilometers from Tahiti. The founder of Cirque du Soleil has invested $ 150M in the island since its purchase in 2007 to transform it from virgin earth to “impossible” destination.

The domain of 2.3km² Can accommodate 52 travelers in 16 villas with 120 employees available, including chef, doctor and massage therapist.

Once on the island after two hours of light jet, the bill is growing. The rental 7 days of one of the 16 villas cost US $ 967,000 in 2024 ($ 1.33M), according to the New York Post. It was $ 1.5M in 2018 and $ 1.46M in 2019, observed The newspaper.

The Jet Collection also offers a flight from London for Socotra, Yemen, nicknamed “The Galápagos of the Indian Ocean”, between 80,000 and 110,000 euros. Cavallo island in Corsica, accessible only by helicopter, requires a budget of 12,000 to 35,000 euros plus transfers.
