When we talk about executive aviation, the first question that comes to many people’s minds is: how much does it cost to charter a jet? With the consolidation of this market in Brazil, the answer to this question in 2025 is more accessible. Understanding the costs involved in air charter is the first step towards discovering the real value that an exclusive trip can add to your experience.
First, it is necessary to understand that chartering an aircraft is not just a status symbol, having become a strategic investment in productivity, privacy, time and security – whether on a leisure or business trip. Below, we will detail some of the factors that influence the final cost of renting a jet, allowing you to make your choice with more information available.
What does it mean to charter a jet?
When you choose to charter an aircraft, you have it exclusively for your use. In other words, instead of buying a commercial flight, with a pre-defined route and time, you have control of the complete operation, from the plane, through the crew, to support before and after the trip. This way, you choose the itinerary and times yourself, and have complete privacy to relax with family and friends or work with your team during the journey.
How much does it cost to charter a jet in 2025?
Prices are dynamic. Therefore, the cost of a charter will vary depending on the model of aircraft chosen, the distance of the route and the length of stay at the destination. In 2025, estimates by aircraft category are:
Light Jets
Aircraft recommended for those who want to combine agility and comfort.
Example: Learjet 31A
Value: approximately R$40,000 on a route from São Paulo to Rio de Janeiro
Medium jets
Jets with more space, comfort and range, ideal for longer national routes or international flights.
Example: Citation VII
Value: approximately R$ 150,000 on a route such as São Paulo to Porto Alegre
Heavy jets
Designed for intercontinental travel, they are leaders in luxury, performance and comfort.
Example: Gulfstream G450
Value: approximately R$400,000 on a route from Brasilia to Buenos Aires
What influences the charter price?
There are several factors that make up the final cost of chartering a jet. Understanding these elements is essential to invest safely in your trip. The main factor is the aircraft model: larger and modern jets have higher operating costs. Then, we have to consider the distance and duration of the flight, which will impact fuel consumption and crew costs.
There are also airport costs, that is, landing, takeoff and ground handling fees, which vary from aerodrome to aerodrome. If the aircraft needs to stay overnight at the destination, crew and jet parking costs are also added to the budget.
The original position of both the aircraft and the starting point can also influence. If the desired aircraft is not at your base, the cost of flying to pick it up may be included in the operation. Additionally, catering customizations, onboard internet, and ground transportation are included in the bill.
When is it worth chartering a jet?
Chartering an aircraft is a strategic calculation. This becomes the best option when the value of time, efficiency and privacy outweighs the cost of operation. It is worth considering when they are needed:
- Optimize a critical work and business schedule
- Access remote or local destinations without commercial flights
- Ensure privacy and confidentiality for public figures
