Private Jet Charter to Cyprus

Cyprus is more than 1,800 nautical miles from the London airfields, and that distance decides the aircraft before the guest list is even read, though an island that keeps its sea warm into November is worth the miles. 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. In Cyprus that means a slot and a handler arranged for Larnaca or Paphos before the aircraft leaves Britain, a passport desk that is a real one because the island is outside Schengen, and a car at the terminal door that is sent to the right side of the island.

 

 

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 Cyprus 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 London Biggin Hill, an Embraer Praetor 600 to Larnaca International, nonstop, 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 Cyprus?

Cyprus keeps eastern European time, which puts it two hours ahead of Britain in winter and in summer alike, because both clocks change on the same weekends. The first two sectors below start at London Biggin Hill and the last two in the north, all gate to gate in a Praetor 600:

The difference between the two Cypriot gateways is small, about 5 min in the air, and it matters less than the drive at the other end: Paphos is the airport for the west coast and Larnaca for the east and the middle, and the road between them takes the better part of two hours. 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.

 

 

Prices for the private jet flights to Cyprus

Typical private jet charter prices from Britain into Cyprus, cheapest first. The figure that heads this page is the Biggin Hill to Larnaca line on a Praetor 600, because Larnaca is where most of our Cyprus passengers land, and every other line shows what a different field, a different airport on the island or a larger cabin does to it:

 

 

Private jet flights within Cyprus and to its neighbours

Cyprus has two civil airports that a private jet can use, so a flight within the island is one short hop, and the interesting traffic is regional. Larnaca to Paphos is 59 nautical miles on our track, Tel Aviv is 191, Athens 522. Dubai is 1,316. These are the sectors we are asked for most, flown from Larnaca, with the cities that clients combine with a Cyprus stay:

 

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.

If you want to make an urgent calculation of the cost of a private plane flight, use our online calculator. Just fill in all the fields of the form with a note that you are interested in a specific model of the aircraft and get the final price. NB! - the figures are sent to you by email or messenger, please carefully fill in the contact details to get the calculation.

All our calculations are as transparent as possible for you. After receiving the request, we will prepare a beautiful offer - where the costs and the final price will be clearly described. The exact price is agreed in advance and is written in the contract, so you can be sure of the final cost.

 

 

Private jets are ready to take off

Our database contains over 6,500 business jets (about 3,500 in Europe and 3,000 in the rest of the world) of different configurations and production years. The list of models is constantly updated. Unfortunately, we can't post a full list of available jets on our website due to confidentiality issues. Please contact the managers of the company for more accurate information. We will help you choose a suitable model taking into account your wishes. These are the typical choices for Cyprus:

 

 

Aircraft based in Greece, Italy and Israel are often closer to Larnaca than anything in Britain, and a jet that is already going your way saves a positioning leg. Outside July, August and the holiday weeks there is usually something suitable within a day's flying of the island, and that flexibility is worth more than the choice of model.

Business aviation airports in Cyprus

Cyprus has two airports that work for a private jet and three names that are best crossed off before a quote arrives. Both working airports are run by the same operator, Hermes Airports, but they differ in who handles the aircraft and in how far they sit from the address that matters:

 

Five rules settle most Cyprus arrivals before a quote goes out:

 

Arriving from Britain: passports, customs and what to carry

Cyprus belongs to the European Union but has not joined the Schengen area, and for a passenger from Britain that means a passport check in both directions and a customs line that follows EU rules. The immigration and customs officers meet the aircraft at the terminal, and the handler fills in what can be filled in beforehand.

 

 

Which airport for which part of Cyprus

Choose the airport from the address, not the other way round. The island is small on the map and slower on the road than it looks, and these are the pairings we use. The distances are straight-line figures from our own calculation, so allow about a fifth more for the road:

 

Limassol, Paphos and the Troodos: what our clients go for

Cyprus sells itself on sun, and the British come for it in numbers: the United Kingdom is the largest source of visitors to the island, about a third of the total arrivals, so a good share of our bookings are people who already know which beach and which restaurant they want. The trips are mostly leisure, with a business side that is larger than the postcards suggest.

Limassol is where the money and the cranes are. The marina has 650 berths and takes yachts up to 110 metres, and it is described as the first purpose-built superyacht marina in southern Cyprus, so a yacht handover or a crew change is a regular reason for a charter. The city is also the island's business address, known for ship management, law firms and funds, and clients who come for a day of meetings fly to Larnaca, drive for under an hour and fly out the next afternoon.

Paphos is the quieter coast and the golf coast. Four courses are the best known around it: Aphrodite Hills, Minthis, Secret Valley and Eléa, the last designed by Nick Faldo, and a group of friends with clubs in the hold is a booking we price in the big-cabin class. The legend places the birth of Aphrodite on this shore, and the Akamas peninsula to the north has trails and bays that are better reached by boat or by a car than by anything with a runway.

Ayia Napa and Protaras in the east are built for summer, with sandy beaches, water sports and diving, and they work for families with several children and the luggage that comes with them. Larnaca itself is the old port town, with the Finikoudes promenade and the marina, and its flamingos spend the winter on the salt lake beside the airport.

The mountains are the surprise. The Troodos has a small ski area with five lifts and about 4 km of slopes, between 1,731 and 1,951 metres, and on a good February day a party can ski in the morning and swim in the afternoon. The painted churches and monasteries of the hills draw those who prefer culture to snow, and Nicosia, the divided capital, is the stop for officials, lawyers and bankers.

 

The Cyprus year: a long season and a short winter

The island works all year, which sets it apart from the Greek islands, and the real question is how hot you want to be and how many other Britons want the same week. These are the seasons in the order a booking meets them:

 

The Cyprus calendar: carnival, Kataklysmos and the autumn festivals

The dated events are few and modest, and each one pulls on a different town. The dates move with the church calendar, so the week is checked before the flight is fixed:

 

 

Flying to Cyprus with a dog or a cat

A dog or cat that travels with its owner can enter Cyprus without quarantine, provided the papers are right and dated correctly. The animal sits in the cabin beside you, so the flight is the easy part, and the difficult part is the checklist, in which the order of the microchip, the vaccination and the waiting period cannot be hurried.

• An ISO microchip, read and recorded on the certificate, which also serves for the return to Britain;
• A rabies vaccination given after the chip, with 21 days elapsed before the animal lands;
• An Animal Health Certificate signed no more than ten days before entry, with a new one for each trip;
• No more than five animals per traveller. Dogs of four listed breeds, the American pit bull terrier, the Japanese tosa, the dogo argentino and the fila brasileiro, are typically refused, and crosses of them as well.

The way home is a British rule. A dog needs a tapeworm treatment from a vet no less than 24 and no more than 120 hours before landing in Britain, recorded with product, date and time, so the vet appointment in Cyprus is booked towards the end of the stay. A cat does not need it. The north of the island has separate import rules, and pets are typically not allowed to cross the Green Line, which matters for a family planning a day on both sides. There is no printed rule about an approved route for animals on a private aircraft, so we confirm the entry point and the paperwork for the animal in writing before the flight. Requirements for rabbits, birds and less usual species are set out on our flying with pets guide.

 

 

Empty Legs

An empty leg is a repositioning flight with nobody aboard, offered at a fraction of the usual price. On the Cyprus run they come from the rhythm of the holiday season, and it helps to know what produces them.

The long sector between Britain and Cyprus is flown less often than a European city pair, so a client who can name a few days has a far better chance than one who needs a particular evening. The operator owns the date and the hour, and a leg can vanish when the original booking moves. Whatever is free is listed on our empty legs page. A selection of Cyprus empty legs follows:

 

 

 

Helicopter charter

In Cyprus a helicopter is a tool for the edges of the trip and not for the airport run. The island is small, the roads are good and the town is minutes from the apron, but a villa without a runway, a hillside in the Troodos or a marina berth reached more quickly from the air are the places where rotary flight changes the day. These are the transfers clients ask for, with the times estimated from the straight-line distance:

The times are straight-line estimates at a cruise of about 115 knots, and the operator confirms the route and the time for your date. The machines listed for charter in Cyprus include the Airbus H125, H130 and H155, the AS355 twin and the Bell 429, and we book the helicopter alongside the jet so that both crews work to one timetable.

 

 

Flights from the UK to Cyprus

Biggin Hill, Luton, Farnborough and Stansted send most of the traffic on this corridor, with Southampton, Bristol and Birmingham behind them and Manchester and Scotland at the long end; the price table higher up covers thirteen of those pairings. Our clients have access to all airports of the UK and Europe. Due to the unique partnership conditions, we can offer our clients the best prices for business aviation services. Our experts will consult you on the availability of private jets in a particular city and help you choose the best option.
