Experiences you can’t get at Gate 17B

Let’s face it - the airport hustle is anything but luxurious. Long lines, crowded terminals, overhead announcements you’ve heard a million times. But imagine a world where the airport doesn’t exist. Where there are no delays, no queues, and no hustle - just the anticipation of stepping onto your private aircraft and flying to the destinations that can’t be found in a travel brochure. This is what Crooked Compass by Air is all about: creating experiences that you simply can’t get at gate 17B.

Private Aircraft, Unlimited Possibilities

Forget the cramped cabins and constant “excuse me, can I get through?” moments. When you fly with us, every journey is tailored to your pace and style. Whether it’s a jet, a seaplane, a helicopter, or a luxury turboprop, your flight is an experience in itself. It’s seamless, private, and most importantly – designed around you.

You won’t be one of hundreds boarding a plane. You’ll step onto your aircraft and take off in complete comfort. Your route? Totally customizable. Your destination? Some of Australia’s most remote, untouched locations. And trust us, these aren’t places you’ll find at gate 17B.

Uluru Helicopter Adventure by Air

Landing in the Heart of the Outback

Forget the well-trodden tourist trails. Your journey with Crooked Compass by Air will take you to places where the red earth stretches forever, where the skies are more stars than black, and where the only thing between you and adventure is the hum of your aircraft.

Picture this: landing in the middle of the Australian Outback, far away from the nearest tourist bus. You’re greeted by your own private guide, and the next few days are filled with safari drives, campfire dinners, and star-gazing like you’ve never seen before. Welcome to luxury under the open sky, where every meal is fresh, every experience is bespoke, and every moment feels a world away from gate 17B.

Long Lunch with a view Adventure by Air Tasmania

Long Lunches with a view you won’t believe

Let’s talk about food. Now, we’re not just talking about any lunch – we’re talking about long lunches, gourmet feasts, and endless bottles of wine, all set in locations that will take your breath away. Forget the overpriced sandwiches from the airport deli.

With Crooked Compass by Air, your lunch could be on a private yacht off the coast of Whitehaven Beach, with the sun shining and the champagne flowing. Or perhaps it’s a candlelit feast in a shearing shed in the Outback, where you’re surrounded by the endless, rugged beauty of Australia’s heartland. These experiences are as much about the journey as they are about the meal itself.

Exploring Remote Islands & Hidden Paradises

What’s better than being on a beach? Being on a private beach, where the only footprints are your own. Imagine arriving by seaplane to a hidden island in the Great Barrier Reef, where the waters are crystal clear, and the coral reefs are waiting for you to explore. Or perhaps you’ll discover an exclusive luxury lodge nestled on a secluded bay, with panoramic views of the Australian coastline.

When you travel with Crooked Compass by Air, you get access to places that most people will never even hear about – much less visit. From the remote Tiwi Islands to private islands in the Whitsundays, we’ll take you to places that are off the radar and completely unforgettable.

Boarding a private jet with Crooked Compass by Air isn’t just a flight – it’s the start of an adventure. Whether it’s a day trip to a remote winery or a multi-day exploration of Australia’s wild side, these experiences are designed to leave your team feeling inspired and your clients truly appreciated.
