Charter Long Range Jets

This is the class of nonstop intercontinental flights: London–Los Angeles, Geneva–New York, Dubai–Sydney with one stop. A range of 9,600–14,800 km saves 3–5 hours per connection and removes dependence on intermediate countries. Cabins of three or four zones with a bedroom, shower and office turn a 12-hour flight into a full working day or a night's sleep.

Capacity is 12–19 passengers with sleeping berths for 6–10. Range: Global 5500 10,600 km, G550 12,500 km, Falcon 8X 11,950 km, G650ER 13,890 km, Global 7500 14,260 km, G700 14,350 km, Global 8000 14,800 km. Cruise M0.85–0.925; the Global 8000 reaches M0.94 — faster than any production civil aircraft.

From the ultra-large class it is set apart by 3,000–6,000 km more range and modern airframes with low cabin altitude (equivalent to 900–1,200 m at cruise). ACJ/BBJ business liners give two or three times the floor area, but need long runways, cost more to maintain and are slower. The formula: regular nonstop 10+ hours for a small group — this class; a 20+-person residence cabin — a liner.

Rates are $10,000–16,000 per hour: the G550 and Global 5000 near the lower bound, the G650ER, G700 and Global 7500 near the upper. A London–Los Angeles flight comes to $150–220K, Dubai–Tokyo $70–100K. The price includes three or four crew, sleeping-cabin prep and restaurant catering; a crew change on ultra-long legs is built into the estimate in advance.

The standard is 24–48 hours before departure: that is enough to confirm the aircraft, crew and slots. For regular clients we arrange a domestic flight from 4–6 hours. International routes need 48–72 hours: overflight permits for some countries take 3–5 working days. On peak dates — Christmas, summer holidays, major forums — aircraft are booked out 2–3 weeks ahead, so plan early.

An empty leg is the ferry of an empty aircraft to its next job or home to base. Such segments sell at a 30–75% discount to the usual price: a flight that would cost $25K can come to $8–12K. The limits: the date and route are fixed to the aircraft's schedule, and if the main booking is cancelled the flight may shift. We publish current empty legs weekly — watch the listings.

Baggage is limited only by hold volume: a light jet takes 5–8 suitcases, while midsize and above fit skis, gun cases and golf bags — clear oversized cargo in advance. Pets travel in the cabin in a carrier or crate; a pet passport, microchip and documents for the destination country are required. Children fly from birth to 2 years with no surcharge.

Alcohol is allowed in the cabin and is included in catering on request. Smoking follows the rules of the specific aircraft and operator (not permitted on most VIP cabins, with some exceptions). Business meetings, presentations and celebrations in the cabin are possible on midsize aircraft and above.

In non-flying weather or an airport closure the operator offers a rescheduled departure, a change of alternate airfield or a substitute aircraft — safety always takes priority and the captain decides. If the operator cancels through its own fault, the fee is refunded. We stay in contact with the operator and quickly rebuild the flight.

Call us or leave a request on the site. Tell us the dates, the route and how many passengers are flying. We come back with a shortlist of suitable aircraft and a quote for each, usually within a couple of hours.

Once you pick the aircraft we handle the rest: contract, slots, ground handling, catering and, if needed, VIP terminal and transfers. On short notice a flight can be arranged within a few hours.
