The capital of the Slovak Republic is considered one of the best-positioned cities in Europe because, in less than two hours, you can be in Vienna, Brno, or Budapest.
Bratislava airport is located only 8,5 kilometres from the city centre, and to reach it from the shopping centre “Eurovea” takes less than 10 minutes by car. While you can find taxis on the streets of Bratislava, traditional taxi services are not very popular in this city. It’s much more common to call “Bolt” or “Uber” via their respective apps.
Public transport to the airport in Bratislava is very well organized. From the central bus station (“Hlavna Stanica”), you can take lines N74, 61, and N61, while from Galeria Cubicon shopping mall, you can take lines 31 or 39 and then switch to N61 to reach the airport.
There are also private and even luxurious chauffeur services that can take you from anywhere in the city to Bratislava airport.
For those who prefer to be in the air at all costs, you can also rent a helicopter and enjoy the majestic panorama of Bratislava for a few minutes, before landing at the airport.

Which Jets Can You Fly to Bratislava?
You can select any type of aircraft for your flight to Bratislava on all listed routes. If you decide to book the flight via Evo Jets, you can expect to encounter executive turboprops, super light jets, light jets, midsize and super-midsize jets, heavy, and ultra-long-range jets.
If you’re going on a short-haul flight, like those from Thessaloniki or Paphos, the ideal types of jets are turboprops, super light, and light jets. Longer routes, on the other hand, such as those from Dubai or Cairo, require larger aircraft. Super-midsize, heavy, and ultra-long-range jets are good for flights above 2,000 kilometres.
Turboprops
Usually, the most affordable jets on shorter routes are turboprops. The name says it all, those aircraft are powered by a turbine engine. The common flight speed of a turboprop is 725 kilometres per hour with 390 knots because they are the most efficient at this speed. These jets can cross up to 2,400 kilometres without pit stops, but with many models, this range is actually smaller. They are usually slower, but cheaper than other types of jets.
Some of the turboprops available via Evo Jets are King Air 90, Pilatus PC-12, and King Air 350.
Super-Light and Light Jets
After turboprops, light and super-light jets are the second most economical jets you can rent for short-haul flights. The range of super-light and light jets is usually around 2,800 kilometres, which is not much more than the turboprops.
This category of jets can accommodate up to 9 people, but in reality, it’s usually less if comfort is your priority.
Popular examples of super light and light jets are the Citation CJ2, Lear 45XR, Hawker 400XP, Eclipse 500, and Phenom 100.
Midsize and Super-Midsize Jets
For distances that go above 4,700 kilometres, midsize and super-midsize jets are the usual option. Midsize jets can accommodate parties of up to 9 people, making them slightly more comfortable than light jets. Super-midsize jets, however, can accommodate up to 16 persons, making them more convenient for larger parties.
The main reason why people pick midsize and super-midsize jets over light jets and turboprops is their range. Very often it pays off more to pay more for the larger aircraft and cross a long distance in one take than to make refuelling pit stops with smaller aircraft.
On any of the routes to Bratislava listed in this article, you will find the following models of midsize and super-midsize jets: Citation Excel, Hawker 800XP, Lear 60 Falcon 50 EX, Challenger 300, and Citation X.
Heavy and Ultra-Long-Range Jets
When it comes to heavy and ultra-long-range jets, these are a good choice if you feel like a more powerful and comfortable aircraft will better serve your needs. These jets are very spacious and offer rich amenities, making them an ideal choice for very long flights (>5 hours), or in case you are travelling with a larger party and want to accommodate more people without compromising comfort.
Keep in mind that these jets accommodate up to 16 and up to 18 passengers for heavy and ultra-long-range jets respectively.
Some of the remarkable models from this category you may encounter are the Gulfstream G-IV, Challenger 604, and Falcon 900EX
Conclusion
If you plan to pay a visit to the central European capital and try some “brindzove halushky” or “tatransky chai” in Bratislava, the routes listed above are the most popular ones to fly to this city.
Flying private is always a special experience, and makes things much more convenient at the airports, leaving you more time and energy for things that are the most important to you during your trips.
