BEST VALUE
Light Jet
The Eclipse 550 clears both runways and has range headroom on the 396 nm leg without stepping up into a larger, more expensive cabin — the lowest hourly cost that still handles this pair reliably.
Indicative all-in €4,200
MOST POPULAR
Midsize
Midsize aircraft like the Cessna Citation VII are the workhorse of Olbia–Davos — they hit the sweet spot on cabin comfort, block time and cost that the majority of charterers pick.

On Olbia → Davos, aircraft positioning is the biggest lever on price today.
PRICE DRIVERS
Aircraft based off-route are repositioned to Olbia before pickup — the shorter that leg, the more competitive the quote.
If the aircraft can't pick up a return charter from Davos, the empty repositioning leg is baked into your quote.
Landing, handling and ramp fees on OLB–ZRH are set field by field — OLB and ZRH each carry their own coordinated-airport surcharge profile.
Across 396 nm the fuel uplift is a bounded line item on OLB–ZRH, not the driver of the quote.
Olbia → Davos demand cycles pull the 396 nm sector off its low band on peak weeks.
Ramp capacity at ZRH constrains the lift available for 396 nm inbounds from Olbia — operators quote accordingly.
Weather rarely re-prices OLB–ZRH beyond marginal fuel adjustments over 396 nm.
Slot coordination at ZRH — peak-season Saturdays especially — forces earlier commitment on Olbia departures and raises handling on OLB–ZRH.
At 396 nm, OLB–ZRH sits far inside a single crew duty period — no augmented crew cost.
Overnight parking at ZRH is normally available and adds a defined ramp and handling fee to the OLB–ZRH quote.
SAVING OPPORTUNITIES
Saving levers on Olbia → Davos
If the aircraft is already positioned closer to another Olbia-area field, using it reduces positioning cost and often trims 5–15% off the quote.
Alternative arrivals near ZRH can trim handling and slot pressure on OLB–ZRH — see the airport comparison above.
OLB ↔ ZRH (396 nm) is a corridor we monitor for empty legs — set an alert and match one when your dates flex.
Departing 2–4 hours off the peak slot window at OLB drops handling and slot fees on the 396 nm run to ZRH.
396 nm is inside super-midsize range, so a category step down from heavy metal on OLB–ZRH cuts the quote with almost identical cabin comfort.

€3,600 – €5,800
Light Jet through Midsize over 396 nm OLB–ZRH, all-in of landing, handling, crew and fuel surcharge. Weekend and peak-season departures out of OLB sit at the upper end.
Price stand: August 2026. OLB–ZRH quotes move with fuel, crew duty and slot availability — we re-price at the point of booking.
OLB–ZRH supply — deep
OLB — 130 archived movements (68 out / 62 in) from 22 operators. ZRH — 78 archived movements (38 out / 40 in) from 21 operators. Both ends carry based metal, so same-day OLB–ZRH lift is realistic outside major event weeks.
Positioning into Olbia (OLB)
When the based fleet is committed, the next OLB–ZRH lift comes from LIRA (149 nm, 2 aircraft), LIAF (188 nm, 1 aircraft), LFTZ (194 nm, 1 aircraft). Those ferries add roughly 20–45 minutes of billed time, which is why identical requests can quote differently on the same day.
Positioning into Davos (ZRH)
When the based fleet is committed, the next OLB–ZRH lift comes from LSZH (0 nm, 35 aircraft), LSMA (33 nm, 1 aircraft), EDNY (41 nm, 2 aircraft). Those ferries add roughly 20–45 minutes of billed time, which is why identical requests can quote differently on the same day.
Olbia (OLB) — departing for ZRH
OLB departing for ZRH: Slot-coordinated Jun–Sep — Porto Cervo peak. Curfew: 23:00–06:00.
Davos (ZRH) — arriving from OLB
ZRH arriving from OLB: Fully coordinated commercial airport. Curfew: 23:30–06:00.
Davos (ZRH)
Charter movement in our archive concentrates in July and August (92% of 78 recorded legs), and falls away in December and October. For OLB–ZRH that means booking the peak weeks 2–3 weeks out: the based fleet sells out first, then ferried lift, then nothing, while December is where negotiation actually works.
Global 7500 / Gulfstream G650 on a short sector
