Australia by Private Plane: An Ultra-Lux 10-Day Journey from Outback to Island Paradise
This is Australia as few ever experience it — stitched together by private charter flights, intimate lodges and landscapes so remote they’re rarely paired in a single journey. From Uluru and the underground world of Coober Pedy to the legendary Birdsville Races and the vineyards of Barossa, the journey culminates in a tropical finale on Hamilton Island, with every transition refined and exclusive to this event.
Spanning the vineyard-lined hills of South Australia to the tropical calm of Hamilton Island, this itinerary brings together destinations rarely experienced in a single journey. Barossa Valley, Kangaroo Island, Coober Pedy, Uluṟu, Birdsville and the Whitsundays each reveal a distinct side of Australia, brought together by private aviation and anchored by exceptional stays at Luxury Lodges of Australia properties, including The Louise, Southern Ocean Lodge, Longitude 131° and qualia. Each day begins and ends in extraordinary surroundings — ocean horizons, desert stillness, vineyard views and island serenity.
Private flights transform the experience itself. Bypassing commercial terminals and long overland drives, you’ll fly directly between regions alongside the same intimate group throughout. This unlocks Australia’s most isolated icons, allowing time and space to truly absorb them — from Kangaroo Island’s dramatic coastline and a skippered Whitsundays charter to a private Barossa Valley wine tasting.
At the heart of the journey lies Australia’s Red Centre. From sunrise to sunset, Uluṟu reveals its shifting colours and quiet power, best experienced from the privacy of your lodge, drink in hand, as the desert cools and darkness settles. The journey continues to Birdsville for one of the country’s most storied events, where Pavilion access to the legendary races offers trackside views, hosted hospitality and a striking contrast to the surrounding outback.
This is Australia at its most expansive and refined. With a single departure on 30 August 2026, this privately orchestrated journey is limited, offering rare access to a lifetime of experiences in one remarkable journey.
