Private jet charter in Belize

Belize sits on the Caribbean coast of Central America, 4,676 nautical miles west of London, and a jet that makes the trip has to decide early whether it lands in the Azores on the way. Private Jets UK builds these trips around that decision and then around the cayes, because the water, not the road, is how most Belize holidays are arranged. Our customers have access to 6,500 jets of all types and configurations available for rent. We will help you choose the best option based on your needs and objectives. Our catalog contains the models from the largest manufacturers: Gulfstream, Dassault, Embraer, Airbus, Boeing, Bombardier, Learjet, Cessna, Beechcraft, Pilatus, HondaJet, etc. We have established partnerships with the world's largest airlines and VIP terminals, which means we can offer you favourable flight conditions and a high level of service. Our experts will manage the organization of your flight - starting with paperwork, agreements, etc., and ending with a transfer and meeting at the airport. Our company provides a full range of business aviation and concierge services. For Belize that means one international airport that takes a jet, a mandatory local handling agent and a clearance number that must exist before the aircraft leaves Britain.

 

 

At your request, the aviation consultants of Private Jets UK will help you choose the jet with the suitable technical parameters (production year, flight hours, and home base). The cost of the private jet charter in Belize depends on many factors, such as the model of the business jet, the number of passengers, departure and destination airports, type of flight, duration of parking, additional services, etc. Therefore, we calculate the price of each order individually taking into account your wishes. You can use an online calculator to get an instant charter quote. Please indicate your real contact details to get the final calculation.

You can calculate the cost of your flight in several ways:

• using an online calculator on the website (however, it shows only the approximate price);
• via Messenger (WhatsApp or Telegram);
• by landline or cell phone;
• via e-mail (jets@private-jets.co.uk).

 

 

Please note that the above-mentioned price is indicative only. It is calculated on this basis: a departure from Farnborough, a Dassault Falcon 900LX to Philip S. W. Goldson International Airport in Belize City with one technical stop in the Azores, and two passengers aboard. If you want to get a personal quote, just fill out the online booking form below. Our aviation consultant will make the calculation within 20 minutes, and then contact you to specify the details of the flight.

 

How long does it take to fly to Belize?

Longer than the map suggests, unless the aircraft can cross without a stop. The Falcon 900LX is published at about 4,750 nautical miles, and Farnborough to Belize City is 4,676, so a westbound headwind can use up the margin before the Caribbean coast appears. The Falcon therefore calls at Santa Maria in the Azores, 1,400 nautical miles out and then 3,640 on, which is 364 nautical miles more than the straight line but leaves about 1,110 nautical miles of range in hand on the second leg. A Global 6000 or a Gulfstream makes the whole crossing in one go. Belize keeps UTC-6 all year with no daylight saving, which puts it six hours behind Britain in winter and seven hours behind from late March to late October. The times below are westbound, against the usual wind, and count flying time only:

The exact flight time depends on the model of the business jet, as well as the speed of the tail or head wind. Our consultant will make a detailed calculation of the flight time for the chosen business jet.

Private jet flights within Belize and to its neighbours

Belize is small, and nearly everything a visitor wants is within an hour of Belize City by air: the cayes, the Placencia peninsula, the far south. A foreign jet that flies a domestic leg needs separate clearance from the air traffic services office and carries the endorsed certificate on board, so for hops inside the country a local turboprop is usually the practical answer. The table prices each sector with the aircraft a broker would normally put on it:

 

 

We can arrange the flights from any cities in the UK (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland) and European countries. Due to a large database of available business jets, we can help you find an optimal jet and crew. If you have any questions about the departure or the flight itself, you can ask them using the form below:

 

 

Prices depending on the type of business jet

We can clearly show the high dependence of the cost of the flight, on the type of aircraft - we have collected approximate data, at the price of 1 flight hour, for various types of business jets:

 

 

The cost per hour indicated in the table is preliminary and does not constitute an offer or a commercial offer. Exact prices are available from the managers of the company.

The quote names the aircraft that brings you from Britain and what it does afterwards: wait at Belize City, go home empty or reposition to Florida. Each choice changes the price.

Business aviation airports in Belize

Only one airport in Belize suits a jet. Every other strip in the country belongs to turboprops, the cayes or the defence force. The table sets them out:

 

Three points settle most arrivals before a quote goes out:

 

Arriving from Britain: passports, customs and what to carry

A private flight from London arrives as an international flight, and the pilot carries the stamped clearance certificate round the facilitation offices in the arrival hall while the party completes its own forms.

 

 

Which airport for which part of Belize

Every trip starts at Goldson, and the only question is what happens after landing. These are the usual pairings:

 

Belize: what our clients go for

The reef comes first. The Belize Barrier Reef Reserve System is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and Belize holds about 300 kilometres of the roughly 900 kilometres of the Mesoamerican reef. Snorkelling and diving are a main reason people cross the Atlantic.

The Great Blue Hole is the headline. It is a sinkhole in Lighthouse Reef, about 318 metres across and 124 metres deep, some 70 kilometres from Belize City, and Jacques Cousteau charted it with the Calypso.

The interior is the third reason, with Maya cities in the jungle, among them Caracol and Lamanai.

English is the official language and the Belize dollar is pegged to the US dollar.

 

The year in Belize: a dry winter, a wet summer and a hurricane season

Temperatures stay warm all year, so visitors plan around the rain:

 

The Belizean calendar: carnival, lobster and the Garifuna landing

The year runs on a handful of national days and a long list of village and cay festivals:

 

 

Flying to Belize with a dog or a cat

A dog or a cat can travel in the cabin. The paperwork has two halves, one for the way out and a stricter one for the way home, and the second decides how far ahead the trip has to be planned.

• A microchip, first of all. Belize does not state it in the document we read, but Britain demands it for the return;
• A British export health certificate for Belize, signed by an official veterinarian. We check the current form before the booking is confirmed;
• A word with the operator. We confirm in writing the inspection and what happens to the animal while the party clears customs.

The way home is the demanding half. Belize does not appear in the table of listed countries on the British government site, so we treat it as a country that is not listed. An animal then needs a microchip, a rabies vaccination at least 21 days before travel, a blood sample taken at least 30 days after the vaccination and sent to an EU-approved laboratory with a result of at least 0.5 IU/ml, a wait of three months from the date of the sample, and a Great Britain pet health certificate. A dog must also be treated against tapeworm by a vet no less than 24 hours and no more than 120 hours before landing in Britain. An animal that does not meet the rules can be refused or held in quarantine for up to four months.

In practice the blood test is done months before the trip, so a holiday decided at short notice usually has to leave the dog at home, and we say so at the quote stage.

Rules for other species, and for countries where the timeline runs to months, are set out on our flying with pets guide.

 

 

Empty Legs

An empty leg is a repositioning flight with nobody aboard, sold at a fraction of the usual price. A stay in Belize is mostly one-way work for the aircraft, which brings a party across the water and then has to find its next client elsewhere.

A client who can give a window of a few days has a far better chance of a match, though a leg can disappear when the original booking changes. Whatever is free is listed on our empty legs page. A selection of Belizean empty legs follows:

 

 

 

Helicopter charter and air tours

Astrum Helicopters is based at Goldson and flies Bell 407 and Bell 206B-3 helicopters on tours and charters, including transfers to island resorts and private flights to the Great Blue Hole, which can include a landing for divers.

A helicopter earns its fee where the road or the sea is slow. Goldson to San Pedro is 31 nautical miles, Goldson to Placencia 63 and Goldson to the Great Blue Hole 48, which a helicopter covers in about 25, 40 and 35 minutes respectively.
