PrivateJet.com arranges private jet charter from Athens to New York for shipping executives, investors and families heading home after a Greek summer.
Shipping is one of the business links between the two cities. Star Bulk, for example, has its investor relations office in Maroussi, north of central Athens, and is listed on Nasdaq as well as Euronext Athens. Because New York is several hours behind Athens, a nonstop jet that leaves Athens at 9 a.m. lands in New York between about 9:30 a.m. and noon local time, in time for an afternoon meeting.
Business aviation traffic at Athens is busiest in summer, according to European Business Aviation Association data. In New York, the UN General Assembly’s high-level week brings heads of state and their delegations to the city every September. Book early if you’re flying in either period.

Private Jets for Charter Flights between Athens & New York
Super Midsize Jets
Super-midsize jets typically require one fuel stop on this route and take an estimated 2 to 2.5 hours longer than an ultra-long-range jet. Many have stand-up cabins, with space to work during the flight. They can suit smaller groups that have some flexibility in their arrival time.
Heavy Jets
Heavy jets offer more cabin space, and some models have a galley and separate seating areas. These features give larger groups room to work, eat and rest during the flight. A fuel stop may be required westbound from Athens, depending on the aircraft, payload and weather conditions.
Ultra Long Range Jets
Ultra-long-range jets are the only category that flies from Athens to New York without stopping, and they land about two hours ahead of a one-stop flight. Many models have seats that recline flat and a full galley, so you can sleep and eat properly on the crossing. Teterboro’s weight rule, covered in the Airports section, applies to some of the largest models. If one can’t meet it, we’ll land you at Westchester or another New York-area airport.
