About this flight

This empty leg private jet charter flies from Mountain View (KNUQ) to Santa Barbara (KSBA) on 30 September 2026, bringing Silicon Valley within easy reach of the Californian Riviera. Departing from Moffett Field puts you at the centre of the technology corridor, while Santa Barbara greets you with palm-lined beaches, Spanish colonial architecture and the celebrated wineries of the Santa Ynez Valley. Late September is a superb moment to arrive, with warm days, softer crowds and glowing coastal evenings.

Your aircraft is a Citation CJ3, a well-regarded light jet known for its efficient performance, quiet ride and inviting cabin. Up to six passengers can sit back in comfortable seating with room to work or unwind on the journey south. Skipping the queues and crowded terminals of scheduled airlines, you can step aboard with minimal fuss and enjoy a smooth, private flight. The flight itself offers sweeping views of the Central Coast, so the journey becomes part of the holiday rather than a chore.

As an empty leg, this charter is available because the aircraft is already heading south for its next commitment, which makes it an exceptional value proposition for flexible travellers. Opportunities like this are fleeting, so we recommend enquiring promptly if this route suits your plans. It is equally well suited to a business retreat, a wine-country weekend or a well-earned break.
