Pricing Guide & Frequently Asked Questions
Use our tool for an instant market estimate. We calculate prices based on real-time data for over 5,000 aircraft. Note that final quotes may vary according to specific tail availability, seasonal demand, and your mission’s unique requirements.
How much does it cost to charter a private jet?
The cost of a private jet charter typically ranges from $2,000 to $18,000+ per flight hour. The final price depends on the aircraft category (Turboprop, Light Jet, Mid-size, or Heavy Jet), the distance of the flight, and the year of manufacture of the aircraft. For an accurate market estimate, we recommend using our real-time calculator for your specific route.
What is included in the charter estimate?
The quote estimate considers the per-kilometer cost of the chosen aircraft category, always respecting the minimum operational distance of each aircraft. Added to this are airport fees, FBO costs, repositioning, overnight, slot fees, extras, and commission. The final price is presented transparently and already includes all these factors, ensuring predictability for the client.
Is the price shown the final booking price?
The price generated by the calculator is a highly accurate market estimate. Once you submit your request, our team verifies the "live" availability of specific tail numbers. We then send you a formal, all-inclusive proposal with the final price for the exact aircraft assigned to your mission.
How can I get a cheaper private jet flight?
To optimize your budget, consider booking Empty Legs (one-way flights at a significant discount) or choosing a Turboprop for short-haul trips. Additionally, booking in advance helps secure aircraft with lower hourly rates before they are taken by other charters.
