Olbia airport by private jet
Private terminal, summer slots, 32 minutes from Porto Cervo.
Olbia Costa Smeralda is the airport of north-east Sardinia: this is where you land for Porto Cervo, Porto Rotondo and San Teodoro. It has a terminal for private flights and, in summer, a rule that weighs more than the aircraft: coordinating the times with the airport operator.
Every figure has its source at the bottom of the page.
Where from, when, how many.
The quote takes care of the rest.
No name or phone here: these three fields open the quote already filled in. Luggage, aircraft and estimate come next; your details are asked only at the last step.
The private flights terminal
At Olbia private aviation has its own terminal: it is run by Eccelsa Aviation, wholly owned by the airport operator, Geasar. According to the 2026 Service Charter, ground handling works 24 hours a day, seven days a week, on a 10-hectare apron dedicated to private flights.
For you this means landing and leaving without going through the scheduled-flights terminal.
Summer times
In the summer season Olbia is a coordinated airport, level 3 for Assoclearance. General and business aviation operates only after coordination with Geasar, which issues the authorisations.
In the busy weeks the time you ask for may not be available: you choose among those that are left. This is why, in summer, the date and the time are fixed before the aircraft.
The runway
The runway is 05/23. In its release of 27 April 2021 Geasar announced the extension to 2,740 metres.
From Olbia, by road
Olbia town centre is 4 kilometres away. The Service Charter gives 32 minutes to Porto Cervo (SS125 and SP94), 21 minutes to San Teodoro on the SS131 and just over an hour to Nuoro and to Sassari. These are the operator's times, with no indication of summer traffic.
