Name a better way to spend a summer weekend than private air charter to a tennis Grand Slam. I’ll wait.
Grand Slam tennis tournaments are some of the most memorable, high-profile, and hotly contested sporting events on the calendar. Attending them is open to anyone, but they’re frequently the domain of VIPs and luxury-seekers, who flock to these occasions for the incredible quality of sport on show and the red-carpet experience that guests receive.
If you’re one of those VIP travelers who’s used to a world of luxury but hasn’t yet experienced what elite tennis has to offer, then you’re in for a treat. This article will look at the four biggest events on the tennis calendar: the Grand Slams, where world-class sporting action takes place alongside some of the best visitor experiences available on earth.
Whether a newcomer or a seasoned tennis veteran, when you’ve settled on which event you’ll be arriving at you’ll need to think about how you’re getting there. To match the luxury and style of the events themselves while adding convenience, flexibility and speed without compare, there’s only one choice: private jet charter with Skyllence.
Luxury jet travel via private aviation cuts out any of the pitfalls associated with conventional flying, leaving you free to focus on the action. That’s why so many VIP clients attending events such as these return year after year to fly private with providers like Skyllence, using VIP air charter to make the most of these truly memorable experiences. Now that we’ve got private air travel in the bag, where are we heading?
The Australian Open
Arguably the biggest sporting event in the southern hemisphere, the Australian Open is a truly behemoth tennis spectacle. This tournament is the first of the Grand Slams to take place each year, and would-be attendees are unfortunately a little late for 2023’s offering. Take heart, though: 2024 promises to be just as spectacular, and for events of this magnitude booking early is always advised.
Private jet flights will be crisscrossing the Melbourne skyline for weeks in early 2024, with the next competition set to take place on 8–29 January. The men’s and women’s finals are due to take place on the 27th and 28th, so those are dates to aim for if you’re keen to see the culmination of what promises to be an unforgettable tournament.
Attendees will be keen to see whether Novak Djokovic can retain his crown from this year, which he adds to his other titles as the record-holding ten-time winner of this event. On the women’s side, 2023’s competition saw Aryna Sabalenka emerge with her maiden Grand Slam, and it’s fair to say she’s unlikely to be willing to surrender that achievement any time soon. All looks set for another year of compelling drama in the search for sporting greatness in 2024, then – the only question that remains is will you be there to witness it?
If you know you want to be a part of it but don’t know where to begin, don’t worry. There’s time on your side and there are people who can help. Take Skyllence, for example. Their dedicated team of logistics professionals will ensure that your private jet charter experience is like no other, taking you exactly where you need to be at the perfect time and ensuring that everything goes to plan with minimal input on your end. Not only that, but they’ll do all of the above while ensuring the highest levels of comfort, luxury and convenience, leaving you with a red-carpet experience that makes you feel like you’re competing in the event!
The French Open
The French Open, also known as Roland Garros in honor of the famed French aviator, is the second Grand Slam in the tennis calendar, and is held annually from 22 May to 5 June. The only major to be held on a clay court surface, the unique conditions that make up the French open guarantee drama every year, and the next iteration will be no exception.
Perhaps the most famous aspect of the French open in recent years has been Rafael Nadal’s total dominance of the event, with the Spaniard having won 14 of the previous 19 championships. This year’s event has seen him withdraw from the competition due to injury and announce his pending retirement next season. For superfans of Nadal or anyone with an interest in one of the great tennis players of all time, this is sure to be a sad moment.
For potential French Open attendees, however, this means that next year’s event is likely to offer a rare chance to witness history. It will almost certainly be Nadal’s swansong at the event where he made his name, and if you’re even slightly interested in tennis then you’re going to want to be there to witness it (should he qualify, of course). Alongside that marquee event, there will also be all of the usual trials and tribulations as this year’s champions, due to be crowned on the 10th and 11th of June, look to retain their titles.
If you’re looking to attend this year’s event, you’ve left it extremely late and will need to act fast and contact Skyllence now to secure your private jet charter to witness the final – you might make the last set, if you’re lucky! Failing that, why not get ahead and book in advance for 2024’s offering, which is set to take place from 22 May to 5 June? After all, the comfort and luxury of a Skyllence private travel experience is best enjoyed with plenty of time to revel in all its charms!
Wimbledon
Wimbledon is quite simply the world’s most iconic tennis tournament. Fans of the game and those just looking for a quintessentially English spectacle alike will descend on London en-masse from 27 June to 10 July this year, all seeking strawberries and cream and a seat on Henman Hill, or Murry Mount as it’s now called – perhaps Raducanu Rise in the future?
This grass-court championship at the all-England club has seen the rise and fall of many stars over the years, and the newest British tennis sensation looks set to one day add her name to that list. Will this be the first time since Andy Murray’s triumph in 2016 that a British player has won a single’s title here? Whether or not this does happen, Wimbledon in 2023 promises to be an unmissable event that will be talked about for years to come.
Getting there is fairly simple, but adding an extra layer of luxury to attending a prestigious event such as this is never a bad idea. For a red-carpet experience like no other and a journey that’s almost as enthralling as the event itself, contact Skyllence and let them organize your private jet charter flights. Once you arrive in London refreshed and relaxed, you’re perfectly poised to take in all that Wimbledon has to offer. As a worst-case scenario, at least you’ve got an ultra-luxury flight to look forward to if your favorite player gets knocked out in the first round!
US Open
Rounding off the tennis calendar is the US Open, which this year will be held in New York on 29 August–11 September. While this is the last of the Grand Slams to take place, it’s certainly not the least, and the ever-present buzz of the city that never sleeps rubs off onto sporting events held here. What this means for spectators is that all the drama, heartache and tragedy that accompanies a competition like this gets ratcheted up ten-fold by that intoxicating combination of world-class sport and endless American enthusiasm.
Recent US Open champions Carlos Alcaraz and Iga Świątek will be keen to defend their titles and reap a share of the 60-million-dollar prize pool, but the tribulations of some of the game’s titans in recent months make the potential emergence of a new champion a mouth-watering proposition. Keen tennis fans will know that this happened in 2021, with then-18-year-old Emma Raducanu announcing herself on the world’s biggest stage.
Will this competition’s habit of throwing up surprises continue in 2023? Will established household names rediscover some form to remind us of former glories? There’s only one way to find out, but whatever happens it’s clear: you won’t want to miss it. Making sure that you get there via the world’s most comfortable mode of travel is Skyllence’s mission. Contact them today and let them deliver by organising VIP air charter, making sure that you’re afforded luxury travel to this world-class event.
