Private Jet Flights Sedona
Private Jet Charter arranges on-demand private jet flights to and from Sedona, Arizona.
Book a private jet to Sedona for fast, scenic access to one of the Southwest’s most iconic red-rock destinations. Whether you’re arriving for a corporate retreat, a wellness escape, a destination wedding, or a weekend among the canyons, private aviation offers unmatched flexibility, privacy, and efficiency. Instead of landing in Phoenix and driving two hours north, you’ll arrive minutes from Sedona’s trails and resorts, on a schedule built entirely around your itinerary.
Every private jet charter to Sedona is customized to your travel needs. Our aviation specialists arrange aircraft selection, preferred FBO services through Red Rock Aviation, VIP ground transportation, bespoke catering, pet-friendly cabins, and personalized flight planning. Because Sedona’s mesa-top runway favors turboprops and light jets, aircraft choice matters here — and when a larger cabin is needed, we can route you through Flagstaff instead. Whether you need a same-day flight from Los Angeles, a nonstop charter from Denver, or a multi-stop tour of the Southwest, every detail is managed with complete discretion and operational precision.
Speak with one of our private aviation specialists at +1-954-727-0629. Every charter is operated by an FAA Part 135 certificate holder, screened to third-party safety standards such as ARGUS and Wyvern, with aircraft and crew documentation verified before every trip.
Sedona Airports
Sedona Airport (SDX/SEZ) is the closest and most convenient gateway to the city. It sits on Airport Mesa, just two miles southwest of downtown. That puts most resorts, trailheads, and accommodations within 10 to 20 minutes. Red Rock Aviation, the airport’s full-service FBO, handles fueling, passenger service, concierge support, and ground transportation.
The airport is non-towered and has no U.S. Customs. So international arrivals clear customs elsewhere first, then continue to Sedona. Pilots also plan for the mesa’s terrain, where shifting winds and local turbulence can affect approaches in certain weather.
For anything larger than a light jet, Flagstaff Pulliam Airport is usually the preferred alternative. Its much longer runway handles midsize, super-midsize, and many heavy jets, and it’s less than an hour from Sedona by car.
Other airport options:
- Flagstaff Pulliam Airport (FLG) — about 45 minutes north via scenic Oak Creek Canyon. Its 8,800-foot runway comfortably supports midsize and larger jets, though the airport’s elevation still calls for seasonal performance planning in the hottest months.
- Scottsdale Airport (SDL) / Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) — roughly two hours south. Their long runways and lower elevations make them ideal for heavy and ultra-long-range aircraft. Phoenix is also the primary customs airport for international arrivals.
- Prescott Regional Airport (PRC) — about 55 miles from Sedona. Another reliable option, with more runway length and easy access to central Arizona.
How Much Does a Private Jet Charter to Sedona Cost?
Average hourly charter rates vary by aircraft category:
- $2,500–$5,000 per hour for turboprops and light jets
- $5,000–$9,500 per hour for midsize and super-midsize jets
- $8,500–$14,000 per hour for heavy jets
- $13,000–$22,000+ per hour for ultra-long-range jets
Your final price depends on several factors: aircraft type, flight distance, repositioning, airport fees, travel dates, and seasonal demand.
Because Sedona Airport favors smaller aircraft, most trips run on turboprops or light jets. For regional travel, that’s an efficient, cost-effective choice. Larger groups — or passengers coming from across the country — often fly into Flagstaff, where longer runways take bigger aircraft without the restrictions.
Spring and fall are Sedona’s busiest periods, so availability tightens in those months. Booking early usually gives you the widest aircraft choice and the best pricing.

Empty Leg Flights to Sedona
Empty leg flights can be one of the most cost-effective ways to fly private. These repositioning flights happen when an aircraft has to relocate for its next charter. That lets travelers book the otherwise empty segment at a steep discount — often 25% to 75% below standard pricing.
Northern Arizona sees steady private traffic between Sedona, Phoenix, Scottsdale, Las Vegas, Southern California, and other western points. That movement creates occasional empty-leg opportunities through the year.
If your schedule can flex, tell our advisors your preferred dates and destinations. We’ll let you know when a suitable empty leg comes up.
