Private jet charter

What a private jet flight costs, line by line

A charter quote is not an hourly rate multiplied by a flight time. Positioning, ground handling, crew overnights and permits account for most of the difference. We itemise every one of them.

Departure airport

Leave blank if you do not know. We will then assume the aircraft has to be flown in.

Watch items

  • LFMN (Nice) is slot or PPR constrained; the quoted times are subject to slot availability.

Assumptions

  • No aircraft assumed in position; positioning estimated at two thirds of the first leg. A one-way with an aircraft already on the field prices materially lower.
  • Intra-EU: VAT is due in the country of departure and varies by member state. It is not included in this estimate.
  • Fuel is priced at current average into-plane rates. A sustained move in Jet A-1 changes this figure.
  • Estimate only. A firm price requires an operator to confirm aircraft, crew duty and slots for the actual dates.

The routes we price

Forty liaisons with their distance, their block time and their price by cabin. Any other pairing goes through the tool above.

A quote with every line separated

Aircraft, crew, positioning, landing and handling, overnight, catering, de-icing, taxes. You see each one, and you see which are estimates and which are firm.

A single all in figure is convenient and it hides where the money goes. It also makes two quotes impossible to compare, which is usually the point.

Positioning flights, and who pays for them

An aircraft rarely starts where you do. The legs flown empty to reach you and to return afterwards are on your quote whether or not anyone names them.

Choosing an operator whose aircraft is already near your departure point often saves more than negotiating the hourly rate. That is why we source from several operators for the same trip instead of calling one.

What no broker controls

Weather, slots, air traffic flow and a technical fault on the day. Anyone who promises otherwise is promising something they do not own.

What we do control is the alternative: a second aircraft identified before departure on trips where a delay would cost you the reason for travelling.
