Ready for a proper Mediterranean escape? This scenic run from Palermo (LICJ) to Olbia (LIEO) takes you from Sicily to Sardinia on a beautiful island-to-island adventure across the heart of the Mediterranean.

Depart Palermo with the rugged mountains of northern Sicily behind you and head out over the deep blue Tyrrhenian Sea. Instead of a long and boring cruise, this route gives you the perfect mix of coastal scenery, open-water flying and a spectacular transition back toward land as Sardinia appears on the horizon.

The real reward comes on the Sardinian side. Rugged terrain, turquoise water, rocky coastlines and scattered islands make the approach toward Olbia one of those moments where it pays to leave the cockpit instruments alone for a second and simply enjoy the view.

Depending on your aircraft, expect around 60-80 minutes of flying time. That makes LICJ to LIEO perfect for a relaxed evening session: long enough to feel like a proper trip, but short enough to avoid spending hours watching the autopilot.

Fly it in a fast turboprop or business jet for a quick Mediterranean blast, or take something slower and stay lower to really enjoy the coastline. Live weather can completely change the character of the trip, while sunrise or late-afternoon light can turn the Mediterranean scenery into something special.
