The route

Abu Dhabi → Rhodes.

A private jet from Abu Dhabi to Rhodes connects the UAE capital with the most southerly of the major Greek islands and one of the most historically layered destinations in the eastern Mediterranean: the extraordinary Knights' Quarter of the medieval old city (a UNESCO World Heritage site containing the finest medieval street in the world, the Street of the Knights), the Acropolis of Lindos above its ancient theatre and tiny whitewashed village, the Palace of the Grand Masters, the butterfly valley of Petaloudes, and some of the most reliably sun-drenched beaches in the Aegean at Faliraki, Prasonisi, and Tsampika. At approximately 2,000 km, this is one of the most accessible private jet destinations from Abu Dhabi. Our advisors manage all details 24/7.
