It’s the ultimate in Caribbean luxury: arriving by private jet. And some islands attract private jets more than others.

And a new report from XOJET, a leading private aviation services company, sheds light on the preferences of the Caribbean’s ultra-luxe travelers.

XOJET provided data on the firm’s 10 most popular destinations in the wider Caribbean region, and the Bahamas led the way.

The second-most popular private jet destination was St Maarten, followed by the Turks and Caicos Islands.

“At XOJET, we strive to offer a world-class and seamless experience for our clients – no matter the destination,” said Shari Jones, the carrier’s chief marketing officer. “Not surprisingly, the Caribbean accounts for over 20 percent of our annual flying and continues to increase year after year.”

See the full rankings below.

1. The Bahamas
2. St Maarten
3. Turks and Caicos Islands
4. Bermuda
5. The Virgin Islands
6. Anguilla
7. Antigua
8. The Cayman Islands

10. The Grenadines

XOJET operates a fleet of Citation X and Challenger 300 aircraft.
