About this flight

Travel from Santa Barbara to Santa Ana on 31 October aboard a private jet empty leg linking two of Southern California’s most appealing destinations. Depart from Santa Barbara Airport and arrive at John Wayne Airport, close to Orange County’s beaches, business centres and restaurants. Autumn often brings pleasant days to the coast, ideal for enjoying Santa Barbara before departure and spending time outdoors after arrival. Whether your itinerary calls for meetings, a celebration or a weekend by the sea, this route makes moving between the regions feel effortless.

A Cessna Citation X serves the flight, bringing the speed and presence of a heavy jet to this California journey. The cabin offers a comfortable private environment for the 12 seats listed for this flight, with space to relax alongside those travelling with you. Its performance is a notable advantage when you want to keep the journey focused and make the most of your time at either destination. From boarding in Santa Barbara to arriving near Orange County’s coastal communities, the experience feels considered at every stage.

This empty leg is available because the aircraft is already scheduled to travel from Santa Barbara to Santa Ana, creating a distinctive charter opportunity for a matching itinerary. It lets you enjoy private jet travel on a route the aircraft needs to fly, rather than arranging an entirely separate journey. For an autumn day in Southern California, that combination of timing, convenience and destination appeal is hard to overlook.

All went very well! Already planning next year's trip — might need a bigger jet for eight of us next time.
