ACC Aviation unveils 2025 private jet travel trends: A new era of exclusive exploration

ACC Aviation, a UK-headquartered provider of global aircraft leasing, consulting and charter services, has unveiled its predictions for private jet travel trends in 2025. As the world of luxury travel evolves, high-net-worth individuals are embracing more personalised, sustainable and experiential journeys. The trends highlight the destinations and experiences poised to shape private aviation demand, reinforcing ACC Aviation's role as an industry leader in bespoke travel solutions.

Charlie Wilcox, director of charter at ACC Aviation, commented: “The private jet charter market has always been about tailoring travel experiences to the individual. We're seeing a shift towards meaningful, transformative and sustainable travel, with private aviation enabling seamless access to some exceptional destinations.”

Private jet travel continues to redefine luxury, offering unparalleled privacy, flexibility and access to exclusive destinations. ACC Aviation's research has identified some key trends that will dominate the private charter market in 2025.

The rise of sustainable luxury:

Sustainability is no longer an optional consideration in the luxury travel sector. High-net-worth travellers are increasingly seeking eco-conscious destinations, from Costa Rica's lush eco-lodges to Rwanda's luxury safari camps. Private jet travellers are also taking greater responsibility for their environmental footprint.

As part of ACC Aviation's commitment to sustainability, the company has partnered with Positive Planet, enabling clients to offset their carbon emissions through certified carbon credits. This initiative allows private jet customers to contribute to global carbon reduction projects without compromising on the flexibility and exclusivity of private aviation.

Charlie adds: “Sustainability is at the forefront of our clients' minds. Through our partnership with Positive Planet, we're empowering travellers to take meaningful steps towards reducing their environmental impact while enjoying the benefits of private jet travel.”

Experiences over destinations:

The demand for unique, transformative experiences is redefining the travel landscape. ACC Aviation predicts that 2025 will see an increase in private charters to niche destinations like Bhutan, Tunisia and Mongolia, where bespoke itineraries offer cultural immersion and adventure.

“Today's traveller is looking beyond traditional luxury,” says Charlie. “They want to create lasting memories, whether it's witnessing the Northern Lights in Iceland, exploring the desert landscapes of Namibia or trekking to see mountain gorillas in Rwanda.”

The Mediterranean's year-round appeal:

The Mediterranean remains a perennial favourite for private jet travellers, with an emerging trend towards off-season travel. Lesser-known islands, such as Milos and Syros in Greece, Corsica and Sardinia, are attracting discerning travellers seeking exclusivity away from summer crowds. ACC Aviation also highlights southern Turkey as a rising destination, with its ultra-luxury resorts and private marina access.

Wellness-centric retreats:

Wellness travel continues to grow, with destinations like Bali, Tulum and the Swiss Alps offering holistic experiences designed to rejuvenate the mind and body. Private jet charters allow seamless travel to these wellness havens, catering to individuals prioritising health and well-being.

Accessing the world's events:

Event-based travel is another trend shaping private aviation. From the Cannes Film Festival to Aspen's Food & Wine Classic, private jets offer flexible schedules and direct access to high-profile events. The rise of such curated travel experiences aligns perfectly with ACC Aviation's expertise in bespoke charter solutions.

Private aviation's inherent advantages are central to these trends. By providing direct access to remote destinations, avoiding commercial hub-and-spoke networks and enabling flexible schedules, private jets make even the most ambitious travel itineraries possible.

“Private jets are more than just a mode of transport; they're a gateway to experiences that would otherwise be out of reach,” explains Charlie. “Our clients value the ability to bypass traditional travel constraints and craft journeys that reflect their personal aspirations.”

With decades of experience and a global network, ACC Aviation is uniquely positioned to guide clients through the evolving landscape of private travel. The company's expertise extends beyond arranging charters, offering end-to-end travel solutions that cater to the most discerning clientele.

“At ACC Aviation, we're not just chartering aircraft; we're crafting experiences,” concludes Charlie. “Whether it's facilitating eco-conscious travel or navigating complex itineraries for high-profile events, we pride ourselves on delivering solutions that exceed expectations.”
