Private Jet Charter Airport
Dübendorf Air Base (LSMD)
Overview
Private jet charter to Dübendorf Air Base
Dübendorf Air Base (LSMD) is a private-jet charter access point in Dübendorf, Switzerland, serving Zurich for travelers who want their flight plan tied closely to the city rather than to a broader airline schedule.
Set in Dübendorf, the airport gives a Zurich-focused itinerary a more contained starting point: one field, one arrival plan, and a handoff from aircraft to ground transport without building the day around a commercial terminal sequence. For private travelers, that simplicity is often the point.
For route planning, LSMD supports Zurich charter movements including Cancun, Geneva, Hilton Head, Ibiza, Lisbon, Providenciales, Rome, and San Francisco, with corresponding outbound routes from Zurich to each of those cities. The field’s longest runway is 7,726 ft, a useful planning fact to review with the selected aircraft, passenger load, and operating requirements.
Zurich Airport (LSZH), St. Gallen-Altenrhein Airport (LSZR), Metropolitan Area Airport (LFSB), and Bern Belp Airport (LSZB) also serve the Zurich market. A private traveler might still choose LSMD when the trip is centered on Zurich and the Dübendorf setting is the cleaner fit for the ground itinerary, while keeping those alternates available for comparison during planning.
“At LSMD, our desk first confirms the requested routing and airport acceptance for your firm date before presenting aircraft. Early firm dates give us more room to align the Zurich arrival and onward ground plan.”
