Fly on our Powder Byrne Private Flight

We've been offering a Private Flight programme for our clients travelling over the main February half term week for over a decade, serving the needs of our many returning clients. Our service is designed to ensure we can offer our clients a seamless flight experience at a time when scheduled airlines are stretched to capacity. 

Our programme provides departures at family-friendly times from Heathrow Terminal 5, as well as a whole host of special benefits that have been designed with family comfort and convenience in mind. Our flight programme serves Zurich airport, providing access to our Swiss ski resorts during the peak half-term week and seamlessly links with our luxury group transfer services to get you onto your chosen resort without delay.

The concept for PB-01 is simple: we’ve taken all the positives and learnings from our Private Flight programme over the past few years, operated in partnership with British Airways, and created a flagship option that elevates the flight experience to a new level whilst keeping the cost competitive with other options over this high-demand period.

The benefits you’ll enjoy on PB-01

Flying at the most convenient family-friendly times from London Heathrow Terminal 5 departing mid-morning and returning to Heathrow mid-afternoon.

  • ‘Business Class’ seat formation, meaning the middle seat in each bank of three is left vacant to afford you more space and privacy.

  • We’ll also guarantee that your family is seated together as we have complete control of the seating plan.

  • Priority Club Class check-in desks at T5 overseen by our Powder Byrne team, including enhanced luggage allowance and free ski carriage.

  • Fast Track channel through security for your convenience.

  • A warm welcome to the BA Club Lounge in T5 for all your family so you can relax before your flight.

  • Club Class menu upgrades, complimentary bar and newspapers on board as you settle into your flight.

On your return flight from Zurich you’ll also enjoy Club Class check-in, Fast Track security channel and a Champagne gate-reception before you board, hosted by members of our senior Powder Byrne team.


We were delighted with how the service was received, and demand for the PB-01 service has gone from strength to strength since skiers have returned to the mountains. We’re looking forward to delivering our programme again in February 2024.

Our service remains exclusive to Powder Byrne clients, and we aim to keep seat prices as competitive as possible at a time of very high demand. We are taking pre-bookings for February 2024 prior to the full launch of our schedule later in the year, and you can reserve your seats now to avoid disappointment.
