Why Fly Private
Goa's commercial airport serves primarily domestic routes, with limited international connections requiring stops in Mumbai or Delhi. A private jet from Dubai takes just 3.5 hours nonstop, from Singapore 5.5 hours, saving an entire day of connecting flights. The new Mopa airport's modern facilities cater well to private aviation, and helicopter transfers to South Goa's secluded beach resorts bypass the often-congested NH66 highway.
Private Jet Experience
Arriving at Goa's Manohar International Airport at Mopa, you are greeted by the warm Arabian Sea breeze. The modern terminal provides efficient VIP processing, and a luxury vehicle or helicopter is arranged for the transfer to your resort. Within forty minutes you can be sipping a sundowner at a beachfront property in Ashwem or Morjim, with the sound of waves replacing the hum of the engine.
