Private jet charter in Hong Kong

Hong Kong asks a British traveller for no visa and clears a private party in about a quarter of an hour, yet the cheapest way to get there from London still takes just under sixteen hours from wheels up to wheels down, with two fuel stops on the way. Private Jets UK plans the trip from the Hong Kong end backwards. 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. The territory has one airport and one business aviation terminal with a small apron, so before anyone discusses the cabin, the aircraft needs a landing permit from the Civil Aviation Department, a parking place and a runway slot, and the date is usually settled by those three and not by the flying.

 

 

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 to Hong Kong 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, a Bombardier Challenger 605 to Hong Kong International with two technical stops, in Baku and Almaty, 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 Hong Kong?

Hong Kong keeps the same clock all year, eight hours ahead of Britain in winter and seven in summer, so a morning departure from a London airfield lands on the morning of the next day by the local clock. These are the sectors from London Biggin Hill on the lowest-priced aircraft that can fly them, gate to gate, with about an hour on the ground for every fuel stop:

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 Hong Kong

Typical one-way prices from Britain, cheapest first. The Challenger 605 leads the table because it is the least expensive cabin that can make the trip at all, with two landings on the way, and the rows below it show what a stop saved or a bigger cabin costs. Every figure includes the technical stops shown in the row:

 

 

Private jet flights from Hong Kong to its neighbours

Hong Kong has no domestic network. There is one airport, and every flight that leaves it crosses a border, even the 21 nautical miles to Macau or Shenzhen. The hops we are asked for most are the Pearl River Delta cities, Shanghai and Beijing, and three regional capitals, Taipei, Bangkok and Singapore, which sit 469, 947 and 1,441 nautical miles away:

 

 

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.

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 Hong Kong:

 

 

For a sector this long we look at aircraft positioned in the Gulf or in Asia as well as in Britain, so the dates should reach us while they can still move.

Business aviation airports in Hong Kong

There is only one airport in Hong Kong that takes a private jet from abroad, so the choice is between Hong Kong itself and the three fields around the delta that people use when Hong Kong is full or too dear. The first row of the table is where most of our flights go; the others matter when the date or the budget does not fit:

 

Inside the Hong Kong terminal the facilities are few and well kept after the rebuild. There are two private suites for six to twelve people, a conference room for up to ten, a shower room, a lounge certified for Muslim travellers by Crescent Rating, and a 26-metre canopy that covers the walk from the building to the aircraft in the rain. There is no restaurant on site, only refreshments in the terminal, and the restaurants of Terminal 1 and Tung Chung are about 15 minutes away by car. Three hangars take aircraft up to the size of a Global 7500.

Three constraints shape every schedule into Hong Kong:

 

Arriving from Britain: passports, permits and what to leave at home

A British passport holder walks in without a visa, the aircraft needs three permissions in its own name, and the bags are checked as thoroughly as in any large port. None of it is hard, but the lead times are real.

Catering is ordered through the terminal. Raw meat is restricted on import, while fruit, vegetables and raw fish are not, and the handler can hold catering in storage for a fee, though some items cannot be kept. A crew on a short layover usually stays at the Sheraton in Tung Chung, and the trip into the city by taxi or ride-hailing takes about 45 minutes.

A Hong Kong stay carries no permission to cross into the mainland, which has its own visa rules. Coming home is a flight into Britain, which means a General Aviation Report to the border authorities not earlier than 48 hours and not later than two hours before departure. British and Irish citizens need no electronic travel authorisation, and British citizens carry a valid British passport or a certificate of entitlement.

 

 

Which airport for which part of the Hong Kong region

Hong Kong itself is simple, because there is only the one airport. The questions are where in the city you are going, and whether Hong Kong is the right door to the delta at all:

 

Hong Kong: what our clients go for

Business is the first reason. About 7.5 million people live on 1,114 square kilometres of land, and the territory's stock exchange is one of the five largest in the world, so a meeting in Central is often the whole point of the trip, and the aircraft is booked around it.

Racing is the second. The season at Happy Valley and Sha Tin returns in September after the summer break, and the December international races at Sha Tin draw owners and guests from several continents for a week of gala dinners and trackside breakfasts that ends with race day at the course.

Many parties treat Hong Kong as a base. The stadium at Kai Tak seats about 50,000 for the rugby sevens, Macau is a helicopter hop or a bridge crossing away, and the mainland cities of the delta are an hour or two by train, so the long flight from London is made once and the rest of the loop is done on the ground.

 

Typhoons, summer storms and a cool winter

Hong Kong is subtropical, and for an aircraft the month matters more than the address:

 

The Hong Kong calendar: new year, art week, a rugby weekend and the December races

The dates below move the price and the parking more than anything else in the year, and each pulls on a different part of the city:

 

 

Flying to Hong Kong with a dog or a cat

Hong Kong admits dogs and cats on a permit, and Britain sits in the group of places with the lightest terms, which keeps the file shorter than for most of Asia. The way home is also the easy kind, because Hong Kong is on the list from which Britain accepts a pet on the simpler terms.

The business aviation terminal takes pets with at least two working days' notice and can handle up to 30 animals on one flight. The animal stays in an escape-proof carrier throughout, it is never walked on a lead in the lounge or on the ramp, and the owner stays with it through the inspection by the department and any quarantine, waiting in a private room of the terminal.

Coming home, Britain asks for less than it does for unlisted countries. A pet from Hong Kong needs:

• A Great Britain pet health certificate issued within 10 days of travel, because neither a pet passport nor an animal health certificate is accepted from Hong Kong;
• A rabies vaccination, followed by a wait of 21 days after the primary course before the animal may travel;
• For a dog, a tapeworm treatment from a vet between 24 and 120 hours before arrival in Britain;
• Quarantine for up to four months if the rules are not met.

The rabies blood test and the three-month wait that unlisted countries require do not apply. The animal stays aboard at the technical stops, and for a private flight we confirm the entry point and the paperwork for the animal in writing before the flight.

Other destinations, and the general rules for travelling with an animal on a private jet, are set out on our flying with pets guide.

 

 

Empty Legs

An empty leg is a flight the operator has to make anyway, with the cabin vacant, and it is sold at a fraction of the charter price rather than flown for nothing. On a route as long as this one the saving is large in cash, and so are the conditions.

Clients who offer a week in place of a day match most often, although the operator owns the date and a leg can vanish when the original booking changes. Whatever is free is listed on our empty legs page. A selection of Hong Kong empty legs follows, at roughly 40 percent of a fresh charter:

 

 

 

Helicopter charter

Helicopters matter in Hong Kong more than in most places, because the airport is on an island on the far side of the harbour, and because the shortest way to Macau is over the water. Two operators cover most of what clients ask for:

A helicopter is the answer to the first or last stretch of a trip, not to an intercity hop: it saves the road from the airport and puts the party on the doorstep of a hotel, but it needs a landing site agreed in advance and is booked together with the rest of the itinerary. In typhoon weather and strong wind the schedule gives way.

 

 

Flights from the UK to Hong Kong

London sends most of the traffic on this route, with Manchester, Birmingham and the Scottish airfields behind it; the price table higher up covers thirteen pairings between Hong Kong and British airfields. 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.
