A one-way private jet charter from London to New York typically ranges from $48,500 for a Super-Midsize jet up to $110,000+ for a top-tier Ultra-Long Range jet like a Gulfstream G650ER. The final investment depends on aircraft availability, positioning fees, passenger capacity, and seasonal airport slot charges.
Can a private jet fly non-stop from London to New York?
Yes, Heavy and Ultra-Long Range jets fly this route direct under all conditions. Super-Midsize jets (like the Challenger 350) can fly non-stop during eastbound crossings, but might require a technical refueling stop in Canada or Iceland during westbound flights if they encounter severe winter headwinds.
How long is the private flight from London to New York?
The flight time is approximately 7 hours and 42 minutes for westbound flights (London to New York) due to headwinds, and roughly 6 hours and 50 minutes for eastbound flights (New York to London) when riding the jet stream.
Are customs and immigration handled privately at Teterboro and Farnborough?
Yes. Immigration and customs officers are stationed directly inside the private terminals (FBOs). You will clear passport control in a private lounge or directly on the tarmac, bypassing all commercial queues. The process is completely discrete and usually takes under 10 minutes.
