The cost of a private jet charter flight can vary widely based on several factors:
Aircraft Type: The size and model of the jet affect the price. Smaller jets, like very light jets (e.g., Citation Mustang), may start at around €2,000 per hour. Mid-size jets (e.g., Learjet 60) might cost €3,000 – €4,000 per hour, while ultra-long-range jets (e.g., Gulfstream G650ER), can go up to €10,000 – €15,000 per hour.
Flight Distance: The longer the distance, the higher the cost. Short flights may cost a few thousand euro, while transcontinental or international routes can reach tens of thousands.
Additional Services: Catering, ground transportation, and other concierge services add to the final cost.
Airport Fees and Taxes: Charges for using certain airports, particularly major or high-traffic locations, vary and add to the cost, along with any applicable local taxes.
Short flights (e.g., London to Paris or Milan to Zurich, 1-2 hours): €4,000 - €12,000, depending on the aircraft type and any additional services required. Medium-range flights (e.g., London to Rome or Paris to Madrid, 2-3 hours): €8,000 - €20,000. Longer flights (e.g., London to Istanbul or Berlin to Larnaca, 3-4 hours): €18,000 - €35,000. For international flights or intercontinental travel (e.g., Paris to Dubai or London to New York), prices can range from €45,000 to over €100,000, depending on jet size and customization options.
One-way flight vs. Round-trip
Round-trip flights or same-day returns can sometimes offer discounts, while one-way flights might incur repositioning fees if the aircraft has to return empty (also known as an "empty leg").
For more accurate pricing, it is best to contact your personal flight manager and specify your requirements.
