Advantages of Flying Private

Chartering a private jet is a great option for those looking to maximize flexibility, control, and enjoyment for their Europe trip. Some of the most notable benefits of flying private include:

✈️ Convenience. Create a flight itinerary that is most convenient for you by pre-selecting take-off times and end destinations.

✈️Optimal Comfort & Efficiency. With spacious cabins and flatbeds, you can arrive at your destination rested and ready to go! Plus, flying into private airports minimizes wait times once you arrive at your destination.

✈️Stringent Safety Measures. Private charters go through rigorous checks before taking off, and international flights are always audited by ARGUS and Wyvern for safety. In fact, private charters are said to be a safer option than commercial flights!

Popular Routes & Destinations

Another great advantage of chartering a private aircraft is that private jets have access to 10x as many airports in Europe than commercial airlines. This access provides you and your guests with even more destination flexibility and the opportunity to reduce ground transfer and direct routing by flying into smaller, local airports.

Currently, some of the most popular routes for private jets flying from the U.S. to Europe are:

✈️New York to London, 7 hours 10 minutes

✈️Miami to London, 8 hours 30 minutes

✈️New York to Paris, 7 hours 10 minutes

✈️Dallas to Madrid, 9 hours 20 minutes

✈️Los Angeles to Geneva, 10 hours 50 minutes

✈️New York to Nice, 8 hours 5 minutes

With Airacer, you can fly anywhere you like and avoid layovers, long wait times, and the risk of lost baggage. Check more popular routes here.

How Much To Charter A Private Jet

Two main cost components dictate the price of a private charter: hourly rates and additional fees.

The hourly rate depends upon which aircraft you select. The average hourly rates by aircraft before any additional fees are:

✈️Super Midsize Jets, $5,000USD / hour

✈️Heavy Jet, $6,000USD / hour

Additional Fees include:

✈️Fuel Surcharges – Depends upon your aircraft, the distance traveled, and the current cost of fuel.

✈️Positioning Fees – If your aircraft is not already located at your airport of choice, you may be charged a repositioning fee.

✈️Crew Expenses – May include per diems, meals, and hotel costs if applicable.

✈️Taxes – International flights may be subject to VAT or Goods and Service Taxes.

Private jets charter for peak traveling seasons, or on major holidays and sporting events may experience surcharges due to increased demand.

Opportunity with Empty Leg

An empty leg is a one-way flight taken by an aircraft when it has no passengers. This type of flight often occurs when a private jet returns or repositions itself for its next client.

Discounts up to 75% are usually available on empty leg trips at short notice. For flyers with flexible schedules or first-time clients, discounted empty leg trips are a great opportunity to experience private flying at a more affordable price point.

Sit Back, Relax, and Enjoy Your Flight

Flight staff is committed to creating the ultimate in-flight experience. They will work with you beforehand to make the journey as comfortable as possible, including:

✈️Working with you to arrange transport before and after the flight

✈️Allowing you to request specific entertainment options

✈️Customizing the menu to meet specific requests and dietary restrictions

✈️Arranging the cabin to offer a bed or sofa depending on your selection

Maximize Your Journey with Empty Leg and Shared Seat Flights

For those looking to optimize their travel budget while still enjoying the perks of private aviation, empty leg flights and shared seat options offer a perfect compromise. These options provide the luxury and convenience of a private jet at a fraction of the cost, making your transatlantic journey more accessible. Whether you're flying solo or with a group, shared seat flights allow you to enjoy all the benefits of private jet travel without the need to book an entire aircraft.
