Hire a Private Jet to Luxembourg

Luxembourg is one of Europe's most important financial and institutional centres, and a consistently active private aviation destination for business travellers from the United Kingdom. As the seat of several major European institutions, a global hub for investment funds and private banking, and the headquarters of numerous international companies, the Grand Duchy generates year-round demand for private jet charter from London and other UK cities. Private jet charter flights to Luxembourg are regularly arranged from London, Manchester, Birmingham, Edinburgh and Belfast, with the short sector making Luxembourg one of the most efficient business aviation routes in Europe.

 

 

Luxembourg Airport (Findel) is located approximately 6 km east of Luxembourg City and is the country's only international airport. It has a single long runway capable of accommodating all aircraft categories, a dedicated Business Aviation Centre set apart from the main terminal, and a VIP terminal with fast-track handling, private lounge access and direct transfer services. From the airport, Luxembourg City centre is around 15 minutes by car, making it one of the fastest city connections in European private aviation. For your ultimate comfort, we can arrange a chauffeured car directly from the business aviation terminal to your office, hotel or meeting venue in the city.

Key Information:

• Typical flight time from London to Luxembourg: around 1 hour;
• Private jet charter prices: from 6000 GBP;
• Airport: Luxembourg Airport / Findel (LUX / ELLX);
• Distance from airport to Luxembourg City centre: approximately 6 km;
• Most popular aircraft: Phenom 300, Citation CJ3+ and Citation XLS+;
• Available departures from London, Manchester, Birmingham, Edinburgh and Belfast.

The destination is especially popular with business travellers visiting the European Court of Justice, the European Investment Bank, the Court of Auditors, and the many international banks, law firms and investment fund managers based in the city. Luxembourg is also a frequent stop on multi-city European itineraries, and the short flight time from London makes it practical for same-day returns or as part of a wider European circuit. Private aviation is the natural choice here: the frequency of business meetings, the value of executive time and the convenience of flying directly into a dedicated business terminal make the economics of private charter straightforward to justify on this route.

Private jet charter prices to Luxembourg generally start from approximately 6000 GBP for light jets departing from London or nearby UK airports. Because the sector is short, light jets are the most commonly used category, though midsize jets are chosen when groups are larger or when passengers prefer more cabin space for working en route. The final charter cost depends on the selected aircraft, departure airport, passenger numbers and any additional services requested.

 

 

Private Jets UK provides access to more than 6500 aircraft worldwide, including light jets, midsize aircraft, heavy jets and ultra long-range business aircraft. Our aviation consultants can recommend suitable aircraft based on passenger numbers, baggage requirements, flight range and budget. Available aircraft include models from Gulfstream, Dassault, Bombardier, Embraer, Cessna, Pilatus, Beechcraft, Airbus and Boeing.

 

 

With more than 15 years of experience in business aviation, we arrange private jet charter flights to Luxembourg from airports across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Our team manages every stage of the journey, including aircraft sourcing, flight planning, ground transportation, VIP terminal arrangements and concierge services. Through our network of operators and handling agents across Europe, we are able to offer competitive charter options while maintaining high standards of safety, reliability and discretion.

Availability on private jet routes to Luxembourg is generally good throughout the year, reflecting the steady business-driven demand on this route. During busy periods in the financial calendar - year-end, major investment conferences, EU institutional sessions - advance enquiry helps secure the right aircraft and preferred departure times.

 

How long does it take to fly to Luxembourg?

The flight time on the private jet:

 

1 route

• London - Luxembourg, by private jet Phenom 300
• Aircraft range: 1971 nm, 3650 km | 453 kts, 839 kmh
• Route: LHR | EGLL ⟶ LUX | ELLX
• Distance: 277 nm / 513 km
• Flight time: 0:52 h

• Route: BHX | EGBB ⟶ LUX | ELLX
• Distance: 345 nm / 638 km
• Flight time: 1:02 h

 

4 route

• Manchester - Luxembourg, by private jet Phenom 300
• Aircraft range: 1971 nm, 3650 km | 453 kts, 839 kmh
• Route: MAN | EGCC ⟶ LUX | ELLX
• Distance: 388 nm / 718 km
• Flight time: 1:08 h

 

5 route

• Belfast - Luxembourg, by private jet Citation XLS+
• Aircraft range: 2100 nm, 3889 km | 441 kts, 817 kmh
• Route: BFS | EGAA ⟶ LUX | ELLX
• Distance: 547 nm / 1014 km
• Flight time: 1:37 h

 

The exact flight time depends on the model of the business jet, as well as the speed of the tail or head wind. Luxembourg is one of the shortest international private jet sectors from the UK, making light jets a particularly efficient choice. Our consultant will make a detailed calculation of the flight time for the chosen business jet.

 

 

Prices for the private jet flights to Luxembourg

On the Luxembourg route, the short sector distance means the choice of aircraft is often driven by passenger numbers and cabin preference rather than range. A light jet is perfectly capable of the flight and keeps costs efficient; a midsize jet is chosen when a larger group is travelling or when passengers want more space to work or hold a briefing en route.

Aircraft positioning matters on short sectors. If a jet is already based at Farnborough, Luton or Biggin Hill, pricing is straightforward. If it needs to reposition from elsewhere, that cost gets reflected in the quote - but on such a busy European corridor, well-positioned aircraft are usually available at short notice.

We also see same-day return pricing on Luxembourg frequently, where the aircraft waits at Findel for a few hours while the client is in meetings, then returns the same evening. This is often more cost-effective than two one-way charters.

Below are the approximate prices for the flights performed this year, from a range of UK departure cities:

1. from London to Luxembourg, 6 passengers, by Phenom 300 - 9800 EUR;
2. from London to Luxembourg, 8 passengers, by Citation XLS+ - 12400 EUR;
3. from London Farnborough to Luxembourg, 6 passengers, by Citation CJ3+ - 9200 EUR;
4. from London Luton to Luxembourg, 7 passengers, by Phenom 300 - 9600 EUR;
5. from Manchester to Luxembourg, 6 passengers, by Phenom 300 - 11800 EUR;
6. from Birmingham to Luxembourg, 7 passengers, by Citation CJ3+ - 11200 EUR;
7. from Edinburgh to Luxembourg, 8 passengers, by Citation XLS+ - 14600 EUR;
8. from Belfast to Luxembourg, 7 passengers, by Citation XLS+ - 15200 EUR;
9. from London to Luxembourg, 9 passengers, by Hawker 900XP - 14800 EUR;
10. from Leeds Bradford to Luxembourg, 7 passengers, by Phenom 300 - 13200 EUR.

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:

• Large jet (similar to Legacy 600) - from 4900 to 5800 GBP per flight hour;
• Business liners - from 10300 GBP per flight hour;
• Light jet - from 2100 to 3000 GBP per flight hour;
• Long-haul jet (similar to Global 5000, Gulfstream G550, Falcon 7X, etc.) - from 5800 to 8800 GBP per flight hour;
• Medium-sized jet (identical to Cessna Citation XLS+, Hawker 800XP, etc.) - from 3000 to 3700 GBP per flight hour;
• Turboprops - from 850 GBP per flight hour.
• Large medium-class jet (similar to Challenger 300, etc.) - from 4600 to 5500 GBP per flight hour;
• Small jet, from 1700 to 2500 GBP per flight hour;

On the short London to Luxembourg sector, light jets in the 2100-3000 GBP per hour range offer the best balance of cost and efficiency. The total flight cost is kept low by the short flight time, making private aviation particularly competitive versus business class on this route.

 

 

Recent flights to Luxembourg

Luxembourg is one of the most consistent routes in our European business aviation network. Below are a few recent charters our team arranged, including situations where timing and same-day logistics were the key challenge.

• London Farnborough to Luxembourg, Phenom 300, 4 passengers - a same-day return for an EIB meeting. A client needed to be at the European Investment Bank for a morning session and back in London the same afternoon. We arranged the jet out of Farnborough with the aircraft on standby at Findel, and the group was wheels-up for London within twenty minutes of the meeting ending. Total for the day trip, including standby, came to around 16,000 GBP - comparable to four business class return tickets, but on their schedule.
• Manchester to Luxembourg, Citation XLS+, 6 passengers - a fund management conference. A team from a Manchester-based asset manager attending an investment conference. We arranged a direct departure from Manchester, avoiding the usual journey south to London. Cabin was used for a pre-meeting briefing en route. One-way charter was around 11,800 EUR.
• Birmingham to Luxembourg, Citation CJ3+, 5 passengers - a last-minute legal meeting. A law firm needed to get a team to Luxembourg the same morning following an urgent instruction. We confirmed the aircraft, slot and ground transfer within two hours of the first call and had the team airborne from Birmingham before 09:00. One-way charter was around 11,200 EUR.
• Edinburgh to Luxembourg, Citation XLS+, 8 passengers - a multi-city European circuit. A group making a two-day circuit: Edinburgh to Luxembourg on day one, Luxembourg to Geneva the following morning. We coordinated both sectors as a connected itinerary, which simplified logistics and kept the overall cost more competitive than two separate bookings. Edinburgh to Luxembourg leg was around 14,600 EUR.
• London to Luxembourg, Hawker 900XP, 9 passengers - a corporate delegation. A larger group requiring a midsize cabin for comfort and the ability to hold a working session on the short flight. The Hawker 900XP gave the space needed, and the total flight time was under an hour. One-way charter was around 14,800 EUR, with a fleet of cars arranged at the Business Aviation Centre for the group's onward transfer.

The examples above are recent indicative charters and are provided for guidance only. Your own quote will depend on the current season, aircraft positioning, passenger numbers and any additional services requested.

Most Requested Aircraft for Flights to Luxembourg

Because the UK to Luxembourg route is short - typically under 90 minutes from any UK airport - light jets are the most commonly chosen category. They handle the sector comfortably, keep costs efficient and are available in large numbers from UK airports. Midsize jets are chosen for larger groups or when passengers want a more spacious cabin for working en route.

 

 

• Phenom 300 - the most popular choice for the UK to Luxembourg route, combining efficiency, a comfortable 6-7 seat cabin and availability from multiple UK airports.
• Citation CJ3+ - a capable light jet well suited to groups of 5-6 passengers on the short European sector to Luxembourg.
• Citation XLS+ - a popular midsize choice when the group is larger or passengers want more cabin space for a working flight to Luxembourg.
• Hawker 900XP - frequently chosen for groups of 8-9 passengers, providing a generous cabin on the short sector.
• Pilatus PC-12 - a turboprop occasionally used on this route for smaller groups, offering cost efficiency on the very short sector.

Private Jets UK provides access to more than 6500 aircraft worldwide, including approximately 3500 aircraft based in Europe. Our aviation advisors can recommend the right aircraft for your group size and UK departure airport.

Business aviation airports in Luxembourg

Luxembourg has a single international airport, which serves as the sole gateway for all private jet arrivals and departures. There are no alternative airports within the country for business aviation, so all flights use the following:

• Luxembourg Airport - Findel (LUX) - Luxembourg City, Luxembourg (LUX / LU)
   

Luxembourg Airport, also known as Findel Airport, is located approximately 6 km east of Luxembourg City. It is the country's only international airport and handles both commercial and private aviation. The airport has a dedicated Business Aviation Centre set apart from the main terminal building, allowing private jet passengers to arrive and depart with complete discretion and without passing through the commercial terminal. The single runway (06/24) measures 4,000 metres and can accommodate all aircraft categories up to and including Boeing 747 and Airbus A380. From the airport, Luxembourg City centre is around 15 minutes by car on the A1 motorway. The airport is also connected to the city by the Luxembourg tramway network extended to Findel in 2025. It is often used when travelling to Luxembourg City, Kirchberg (EU institutions), Esch-sur-Alzette and the surrounding Benelux region.

 

 

Main characteristics of the airport:

• The official name is Luxembourg Airport (Findel), LUX, Luxembourg.
• The address of the airport is L-1110 Luxembourg (Findel), Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.
• VIP and Business Aviation Centre - yes, dedicated terminal separate from main terminal.
• Geolocation of the airport - 49°37′24″N, 6°12′16″E
• Runway 06/24 - 4,000 m, suitable for all aircraft categories.
• IATA - LUX.
• ICAO - ELLX.
• Time Zone: +1.0

The Business Aviation Centre is located approximately 1 km from the main terminal, providing a fully separate facility for private jet passengers. Operating hours are Monday to Sunday 06:00 to 22:00, with extensions available on request. Night operations outside these hours require advance coordination and are subject to noise restrictions.

 

Operational handling at Luxembourg (LUX)

Luxembourg Airport's dedicated Business Aviation Centre handles private jet passengers separately from the main commercial terminal, ensuring a fast, discreet and efficient arrival and departure experience. In practice, door-to-aircraft time at the Business Aviation Centre is typically well under 30 minutes, and transfers from the aircraft to city centre meetings can be completed in under 45 minutes total.

Slot coordination at LUX is relatively straightforward compared with busier European hubs, though advance slot filing is always advisable for peak business periods. The airport operates a clear slot restriction system, and we file and manage slots as part of every booking. Night operations between 22:00 and 06:00 require advance approval and are subject to noise restrictions.

 

 

Luxembourg is also a major cargo hub - the fifth-busiest in Europe by cargo tonnage - which means the airport is operationally mature and well-resourced for aircraft handling, fuelling and ground support around the clock. For private jet passengers, this translates to reliable, professional handling even on short-notice bookings.

 

Travelling with pets

We regularly arrange private jet flights to Luxembourg with dogs and cats travelling in the cabin with their owners. For flights from the UK to Luxembourg (an EU member state), pets must meet standard post-Brexit EU entry requirements:

• Microchip: ISO-compliant microchip (must be inserted before rabies vaccination).
• Rabies vaccination: must be valid and given after microchipping, with a minimum waiting period before travel (usually at least 21-30 days for a new vaccination).
• Animal Health Certificate (AHC): issued by an official vet in the UK within 10 days before departure.
• Tapeworm treatment: required for dogs only when returning to the UK.

On arrival in Luxembourg, pets enter with passengers at the Business Aviation Centre with document checks handled on-site. There is no quarantine for compliant pets arriving from the UK.

 

 

Empty Leg Flights to Luxembourg

Travellers with flexible schedules may benefit from Empty Leg opportunities on routes between the United Kingdom and Luxembourg. An Empty Leg occurs when a business jet needs to reposition without passengers and can be offered at savings of 30 to 75% versus a standard charter. On the busy UK-Luxembourg corridor, empty legs appear regularly as aircraft reposition between business trips.

• London Farnborough - Luxembourg | Phenom 300 | 7 passengers | from £4,800;
• London Luton - Luxembourg | Citation CJ3+ | 6 passengers | from £4,600;
• Luxembourg - London | Citation XLS+ | 8 passengers | from £5,200;
• Manchester - Luxembourg | Phenom 300 | 6 passengers | from £6,400;
• Luxembourg - Edinburgh | Citation XLS+ | 8 passengers | from £7,200;
• Geneva - Luxembourg | Phenom 300 | 6 passengers | from £4,200;

The prices shown above are indicative examples. Actual Empty Leg opportunities depend on aircraft availability, routing and travel dates.

Luxembourg - destination overview

The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is one of the smallest countries in Europe but one of the most economically significant. With a population of around 660,000 and a GDP per capita among the highest in the world, Luxembourg punches well above its size as a global financial centre, an institutional hub and a base for international business. The country shares borders with France, Germany and Belgium, placing it at the crossroads of western Europe, and Luxembourg City is within an hour's flight of London, Paris, Frankfurt and Zurich.

The financial sector is the bedrock of Luxembourg's economy. The country is the world's second-largest investment fund domicile after the United States, home to more than 3,500 investment funds and the European headquarters of many major international banks, insurance companies and law firms. The Kirchberg Plateau in the north-east of the city hosts the main European institutions based here - the European Court of Justice, the European Investment Bank, the Court of Auditors and the General Secretariat of the European Parliament - as well as a dense cluster of financial and professional services firms. For business travellers, Kirchberg is often the primary destination, and the proximity of the airport to this district (around 10 minutes by car) makes private aviation particularly practical.

 

 

Beyond its business character, Luxembourg City is a genuinely striking place. The old town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is built across a dramatic rock plateau above the gorges of the Alzette and Petrusse rivers, with the Casemates de Bock fortifications carved into the cliff faces below and the historic grand ducal quarter above. The city has an excellent dining scene, good museums and a compact, walkable historic centre that rewards even a short visit between meetings.

Luxembourg also serves as a useful base for the surrounding Benelux and German region. Trier is 50 km to the north-east, the Moselle wine valley runs along the eastern border, and the Ardennes hills of Belgium and Luxembourg offer a markedly different landscape from the urban capital. For multi-day trips or those combining business with leisure, the country and its neighbours offer more than many first-time visitors expect.

 

Where to stay in Luxembourg - luxury hotels

Luxembourg City has a compact but well-regarded selection of luxury hotels, most within easy reach of both the airport and the main business districts. A few of the best-known properties:

• Le Royal Hotels & Resorts - Luxembourg's only five-star Superior hotel, in the heart of the city near Boulevard Royal, with a spa, indoor and outdoor pools, and conference facilities for up to 1,000 guests. Around 15 minutes by car from the airport.
• Sofitel Luxembourg Europe - a five-star hotel on the Kirchberg Plateau, the only luxury property directly in the European institutions district, steps from the EIB and the Convention Centre. Approximately 10 minutes by car from the airport - the closest luxury option for delegates arriving by private jet.
• Sofitel Luxembourg Le Grand Ducal - a five-star hotel in the city centre near the old town, combining classic Sofitel service with a central location for both business and leisure. Around 15 minutes from the airport.
• Hotel Le Place d'Armes - Relais & Chateaux - an intimate boutique hotel right on Place d'Armes in the heart of the old town, known for its fine dining restaurant La Cristallerie. Around 15 minutes from the airport.
• Grand Hotel Cravat - a Luxembourg institution with over a century of history, steps from the Grand Ducal Palace and the old town, retaining its traditional character. Around 15 minutes from the airport.

These are a small selection of Luxembourg's luxury properties. Whichever you choose, our team can coordinate a chauffeured transfer directly from the Business Aviation Centre at the airport to your hotel or office.
