Honeymoons are more than just fun-filled outings for newly married couples—they cement couples’ relationships, help deepen their emotional bond, and act as positive beginnings to everlasting togetherness. That’s why where you go for your honeymoon—and how—makes a world of difference. Here are 5 top unconventional global destinations you should consider visiting by a private plane with your better half for your honeymoon.
Bora Bora Island
Believe it when we say that this tiny island surrounded by multiple islets in the Pacific Ocean can make for the most unforgettable honeymoon you could’ve asked for. Bora Bora, rightly called “Pearl of the Pacific,” is a South Pacific Island located northwest of Tahiti, French Polynesia, and it’s known for its pristine lagoons, lush vegetation, pearl-white sands, and luxurious bungalows and resorts. Some of the guest bungalows are perched on stilts, which gives you a rustic feel while offering spectacular amenities. Also, if you and your beloved love scuba diving and other water sports, Bora Bora is just the place for your honeymoon!
The Faa’a International Airport is the only international airport in French Polynesia, so if you fly by private plane to this destination, your plane would land at this airport. The Bora Bora airport is another 45 minutes of flying from here.
Amalfi Coast
Located in the southern fringes of Italy’s Sorrentine Peninsula, this breathtaking coastline has adorable fishing villages in vibrant pastel colors, lemon groves by the coast, and terraced vineyards, among other attractions. While here, you can choose to stay at one of the posh hotels in Sorrento or Positano. Make memories for a lifetime with your beloved against the backdrop of the colorful towns surrounding the coast, take a boat tour or book a private boat, and splurge on the indigenous limoncello and lemon soaps! The Naples International Airport is the nearest one to this coastal region.
Zanzibar
This Tanzanian archipelago is sure to give you a feel of a bygone century while boasting of several modern luxuries. The Stone Town, located at Zanzibar’s heart, is a paradise for those intrigued by history and ancient structures. This historic trade center reflects Swahili and Islamic influences and sports elegant minarets, carved doorways, and the landmark House of Wonders, which used to be the palace of a sultan way back in the 19th century. But when you go up north, you’re welcomed by a vast coastline with several beach resorts and bungalows offering top-notch amenities, making your honeymoon incredibly blissful.
So, if you avail of air charter services to get to Zanzibar for your honeymoon, you will arrive at the Abeid Amani Karume International Airport, five kilometers south of Zanzibar.
Masai Mara
Another honeymoon and tourist destination that has been trending of late is Masai Mara, ensconced in the vast community conservancies of southwestern Kenya, along the Tanzanian border. The sheer vastness of the fauna in this region is sure to create memories of a lifetime for newly married couples. Elephants, lions, tigers, hippos, zebras—you have the entire animal kingdom right at your gateway, while observing them from a safe distance and not encroaching upon their natural habitats.
While here, one can either stay at the hotels within the national reserve premises—the JW Marriott Masai Mara Lodge, the Mara Explorer Tented Camp, Spirit of the Masai Mara, etc.—or at one of the many hotels in the community conservancies around the place.
If you’re planning to visit Masai Mara by private plane with your beloved for your honeymoon, book a private jet to the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and fly for approximately one hour by a local flight to reach the reserve.
Queenstown
Set against the backdrop of the majestic, breathtaking Southern Alps, Queenstown in New Zealand is definitely the place to be for your honeymoon if you and your better half are the nature-loving, outdoorsy sort. So, jet-boat on the Shotover and Dart rivers, go bungee jumping off the Kawarau Gorge Suspension Bridge, set out on a lake cruise, or engage in river rafting and canyon swinging—take your pick! If that sounds like your cup of tea, book your private plane to the Queenstown International Airport, and plan an adventurous, fun-filled honeymoon.
