Cold Weather Vacation Destinations from Vault Jet

With the comfort and style of charter flights to all the best cold weather vacation destinations, Vault Aviation can get you where you need to go, better!

Vault Aviation is all about our industry-leading On Demand private jet charter service, as well as treating our customers like family. This means we don’t just drop you off and leave it at that, we want you to know everything you need to about your destination, your flight, ground transportation, preferences, and more!

Here are a few of our favorite cold weather vacation destinations for this winter!

Aspen, Colorado

Aspen might be known for its skiing, but it has so much more to offer. From relaxing getaways to natural beauty, saunas, and breweries, Aspen has a little bit of everything, for everyone.

Whether you love to hit the slopes or relax in a hot tub with stunning views, private jet charter flights to Aspen are your answer, and the gateway to your best winter escape yet.

Aspen is not a large town, but it is surrounded by beautiful mountains with some of the best skiing and snowboarding in Colorado. That makes what could have been a sleepy little town, into a top-tier destination in the winter for skiers and boarders, along with those who just want to get away (without being far from amenities).

What to Do in Aspen:

Vault Aviation recommends checking out Aspen Mountain, as Ajax has earned the title of ‘best mountain in Aspen.’ Buttermilk for beginners and Snowmass for the more comfortable skiers are highly recommended too!
Conundrum Hot Springs is a great place to relax, if skiing isn’t quite your main reason for visiting Colorado. Because it isn’t all about the snow – it can be about warmth as well.
If you love history then visit Aspen’s Wheeler Opera House (320 East Hyman Avenue, Aspen, Colorado) which opened 130 years ago.
One thing sweeping the nation is craft beer – but Aspen didn’t just jump on the bandwagon recently, in fact, Aspen Brewing Company has been creating amazing craft beers for over 10 years!
Home Team Barbeque is just as it sounds – a delicious, relaxed tavern which services some of the best-smoked meats and southern sides in all of Colorado. And – they have an extensive list of craft beers too.

Denver, Colorado

Denver is a great location for people who enjoy winter, but don’t want to be out in the cold all day, as there is so much to do in Denver indoors as well as out! However, keep in mind that the busiest months in Denver are often January and February.

But this makes a private jet charter to the city even more enjoyable, as you can skip all the waiting and lines. Make sure you aren’t wasting hours of your time waiting to board, taxi, takeoff, taxi again, and deplane. Instead, use a private jet charter to Denver and avoid the extra baggage fees in case you are bringing your board or poles!

Denver is not only a booming city, but it has even more to offer than its quieter counterpart in Aspen. From parks to restaurants, art to Union Station and dining in Larimer Square, a Denver getaway on a private jet charter is the perfect winter holiday.

Vail, Colorado

Vail is a beautiful, scenic area with great nature, accommodations, weather, and shopping to boot. And it’s just a hop, skip, and a jump away with a private jet charter to Vail!

Vail Ski Resort is, of course, a great reason to visit the city, but there is a lot more than skiing going on in this picturesque town. Even if the second largest ski mountain in the US isn’t your style, you may want to take a jet to Vail for a number of other reasons!

What to Do in Vail:

Outdoors:
- Vail has some of the best scenery in Colorado and therefore is a great place to go to be in snowy nature. Even the views within the town are breathtaking and deserving of photos.
Indoors:
- There are over 100 restaurants in the Vail area, plus amazing shopping, a movie theater, a gorgeous ice skating rink, gondolas, museums, gardens – there is even nice nightlife in Vail!

Fly with Vault Aviation on a Private Jet Charter to Vail, Aspen, or Denver for a cold weather vacation destination you’ll never forget!

Enjoy the tail-end of winter in style, with a Denver private jet charter to see the city, or a jet charter to Vail or Aspen for the slopes and scenic views. There’s no wrong choice when you fly anywhere in Colorado with Vault Jet!

The Best US Fall Color Destinations for Hiking & Autumnal Hues

If you love fall colors and are ready to get out of your city and into the open air, then check out Vault Aviation’s best fall color destinations in the US!

We love hiking, drives, and exploring new destinations, especially when there are gorgeous autumn hues to see along the way – but sometimes, getting there can be difficult, or stressful, especially in 2020. That’s why flying private is more popular now than ever before. Less wait, fewer passengers, and cleaner facilities mean you can travel with confidence.

And if you need help planning your dates or route, see this interactive fall color map here to find peak color days for your location or destination!

Take an On Demand Private Jet Charter to Asheville, North Carolina for Hiking Through Beautiful Colors

Take a hike through the Blue Ridge Parkway and Appalachian Trail to see Asheville in the valley of two mountains. The colors are striking, vibrant, and unspoiled, and the hiking (and the craft beer) are known throughout the country.

Hiking in Asheville is a must, and there are trails for any ability level. So, whether you want to have a week of deep-trail trekking, or drive to the top of one of their many peaks and lookout without the steps, you have all the choices and options in Asheville, North Carolina.

Fly to Bar Harbor, Maine, for Mind-Blowing Colors on Your Private Jet Charter

The lovely town of Bar Harbor, with its quaint, family-friendly streets and shops surrounded by mind-blowing coastal views, makes for a wonderful fall color trip. Plus, Bar Harbor is near Acadia National Park, where you can find clifftop lighthouses, historic carriage roads, nature and wildlife, and beautiful burning colors of orange, red, and yellow throughout October and the peak weeks of fall.

If you’ve always wanted to go to Maine, then this is a fantastic place to see, and a great time to go.

Take a Private Jet Charter to the Grand Canyon & See America’s Greatest Wonder

The Grand Canyon is beautiful all year round, but in the fall it is especially impressive. If you want to have time to explore without the sunburn or sweat, then autumn is the best time to visit Arizona.

The best way to get to the Grand Canyon is on a private jet charter from Vault Aviation, so you can get there sooner, with less hassle, and with no one else on your plane. Start your fall getaway earlier (and with less stress) by enjoying the travel, not just the final destination, with Vault.

Take a Private Jet Charter to Denver (Or Vail) This Autumn

Though Colorado and Denver are some of Vault Aviation’s favorite destinations for private jet charters and trips in any season, the Centennial State is especially beautiful in the fall before the snows come and many of the towns are full of skiers and snowboarders.

With more private jet charters to Denver now than ever, we guarantee that our Vault Aviation team can find you the perfect jet, price, and dates to see the most beautiful colors of Denver or arrive just in time for the best fall festivals.

See our top city-picks below – minimal hiking involved.

Denver Film Festival – making for a change of pace from the above fall-themed events, the Denver Film Festival takes place in the first two weeks of November and pulls talented film-makers from around the country!
Red Rocks Amphitheater and Park – you can hike as much or as little as you want here, as there are beautiful views right off the road and far back in the park.
Denver Botanical Gardens – these gardens are renowned throughout the US and their fall colors never disappoint.

Our tip? Arrive in a luxurious private jet charter to Denver and stay in one of the city’s famous bed and breakfasts nearby to continue the serene theme of your trip.

Stay Outdoors with These 3 Natural Travel Destinations with Vault Aviation

Vault Aviation loves city-living and trips to NYC, Las Vegas, Chicago, Los Angeles, and more iconic US cities. But 2020 has thrown us all for a loop and it seems most everything is changing, including how we vacation and where we go. Whether for health and safety reasons, availability, or due to a location’s level of ‘open-ness’, vacationing this summer is looking a little different than in past years.

Of course, the beaches in many states are still open, and you may be able to still go to your favorite shopping street or restaurant between COVID-19 spikes, but many travelers are skipping the cities and instead exploring the great outdoors this vacation season. And Vault Aviation is right there with you.

There are so many amazing national parks and pristine outdoor destinations in the US to marvel at. And that is exactly why we wanted to bring you our top natural travel destinations that will make 2020 memorable for a good reason.

#1. Acadia National Park in Maine

Acadia National Park in Maine Travel Destinations

Acadia National Park is the only national park in New England – but with its size, diversity, and beautify, one national park is enough! From Mount Desert Island to the Atlantic Ocean, Arcadia is an amazing spot to explore for a hike, stargazing, a swim, or brushing up on your photography skills.

Cadillac Mountain is the tallest peak along the Atlantic, and just a short drive away is Bar Harbor, an adorable town with beautiful buildings and architecture.

Only a few hours from Boston, Acadia is still less crowded than other coastal New England destinations like Cape Cod or the New Hampshire coast. So, if you are looking for alone time, relaxation, nature, and not being surrounded by the masses, Arcadia is a great option for your outdoor adventure this summer.

#2. Keystone in Colorado

Though many resorts in the larger cities of Colorado and near the Rockies are mainly or fully closed, there are still some amazing secluded destinations in the heart of the Colorado Rockies – like Keystone!

Keystone is a great summer vacation destination with beautiful hiking trails in the high country, alpine biking in their impressive mountain biking parks, and water sports and rafting too.

Located on U.S. Forest Service lands, Keystone is less developed and therefore less crowded than many other locations in Colorado, but still with all of the beauty and ease to larger cities if you want a night out on the town during your relaxing and rugged vacation.

But, of course, if you are heading to Keystone to avoid crowds, then you should make sure you arrive in safety and do not travel on crowded commercial flights either. Choosing a private jet charter can help you and your family stay safe by avoiding commercial airports and having hundreds of other passengers on the plane as well.

Learn more about Vault Aviation’s safety procedures and the ease of private air travel by contacting our team.

#3. Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks in California

Monstrous trees welcome you to the Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, two preserves right next to each other, giving you the ability to see both in one trip. And though some of our favorite Californian cities like Los Angeles are seeing a spike in COVID-19 cases, northern California and it’s beautiful trees and parks are still open.

This area not only has the largest trees in the US, but Kings Canyon also features a long mountain stretch that includes the highest peak in the Lower 48! Whether you want to hike along alpine ridges or simply enjoy the park views and biodiversity, these two-parks-in-one are the perfect location to enjoy. Be as rugged or luxurious as you want, all while enjoying the outdoors and fresh air.

It is important to note that we are currently recommending our clients to not fly into LAX, and instead, fly with Vault Aviation on one of our On Demand private jet charters directly to Northern California so you can avoid potential quarantine, infection, long lines, or delays in or out of LAX.

Bonus! Lake Tahoe in California

We love California so much, and wanted to give you a quick bonus location – Lake Tahoe! Though Nevada has a part of this lakefront as well, the Californian side is known for its luxury and resorts.

If you want both the great outdoors and the ease and pampering of a resort, consider Lake Tahoe for a little of both (without the dirt and rugged hiking routines). And though there are no music festivals this summer, there is still so much to see and do at Lake Tahoe!

Top Island Travel Destinations Via Private Jet Charters

Travel destination trends change every year – one year it’s all about a private jet charter to the Philippines and the next Bali. But keeping up with the top travel destinations around the world is not only fun and informative but can give you travel inspiration for the year to come!

Vault Aviation loves to take this time of year to look back on the top travel destinations, our favorites, as well as try to predict what is yet to come. And because private jet charters have more options of airports to fly into (with many more airports around the world being private rather than public) your travel options truly are unlimited with our On Demand private jet charters!

Here are the top island travel destinations via private jet charters for 2019!

Crete is a Top Private Jet Destination for Good Reason

Did you know that Crete averages over 900 private jet arrivals each year? This makes it one of the top travel destinations for private jet charters and owners. And with the beautiful beaches, mountains, and exciting culture (not to mention the amazing food) this will probably continue to be one of the top luxury travel destinations for years to come!

Barbados Sees Over 1,200 Private Jet Flights Per Year

Barbados is a true paradise with its tropical Eastern Caribbean feel and its laid back atmosphere. And even though this is a popular resort area and sees thousands of cruise ships a year – it is still relaxing, beautiful, and serene (if you know where to go to avoid the crowds in Barbados).

Malta is a (Not So) Hidden Gem

Malta used to be just a speck of tourism, but it has gained popularity in recent years and its amazing culture, architecture, and weather has only helped to inflate its approval. Though it is a tiny Mediterranean island, it’s a common location for second (or third, fourth…) homes due to its great real estate market and amazing views!

Haven’t been yet? Talk with Vault Aviation about adding Malta to your 2020 destination list with a private jet charter, they see around 1,200 private jets a year!

US Virgin Islands – Closer to Home, But Still a World Away

Over 2,000 private jets land in the US Virgin Islands each year, making it one of the top destinations by private jet, as well as one of the best vacation spots if you want to escape the cold. From touring the ruins of 400 year old churches and plantations, to hiking, relaxing, shopping, and more – these islands have it all, with the scenery and serenity that goes along with the Caribbean.

And if you are concerned about the safety of some Caribbean destinations, then rest assured that the US Virgin Islands are at Level One by the state department – meaning there is no elevated risk!

San Juan in Puerto Rico is Picturesque Perfection

San Juan might be known for the vibrant colors of the shops and homes, but did you know it sees almost 3,500 private jet flights a year? That makes it one of the most popular destinations in the Caribbean!

From the restaurants to the beaches, casinos to clubs, there is something here for everyone. And if you are interested in San Juan’s colorful streets – check out this helpful guide to finding the very best spots in San Juan for photos!

Ibiza is A-Buzzing All Summer Long (& It’s a Long Summer in Spain)

Ibiza sees over 5,000 private jets a year, and with the constant ‘Las Vegas with beaches’ vibe all through their busy season, it’s understandable why! Ibiza sees musical artists headlining each of their many clubs almost every night (even weeknights) throughout the summer.

So, if you have an artist or DJ you love, who is spending their summer at the Ibiza Hardrock or one of the other clubs (some of which are 24-hours), then contact your Vault Aviation team to take a private jet charter.

Prefer to stay more local? One of our favorite On Demand private jet charter destinations in the US is Las Vegas, and with their all-night clubs and pool parties – it’s a great option for the Ibiza feel without the visa!

The Bahamas Are Calling

Of all the islands mentioned, the Bahamas blows them out of the water with over 16,000 private jet arrivals every year! This location is great for families and couples, or even singles or groups to enjoy the surf, sun, and sand!

Need help planning your Bahamas getaway? Ask your Vault Jet team member and they’ll be happy to put together a great itinerary!
