Private jet charter in Papua New Guinea

Papua New Guinea lies on the far side of the planet from London, about 7,800 nautical miles away in a straight line, and no business jet in our catalogue covers that distance without landing, so the fuel stop is the first thing we plan. Private Jets UK files the landing permit and finds a handler on the ground. 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 Papua New Guinea that means landing permits arranged well ahead of the date, a handler booked at Port Moresby, and a clear answer on which of the country's few jet-capable airfields suits the trip.

 

 

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 Papua New Guinea 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 Stansted, a Gulfstream G650ER to Port Moresby with one technical stop in Singapore 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 Papua New Guinea?

Most of Papua New Guinea keeps Greenwich Mean Time plus ten hours all year, which puts it nine hours ahead of London in summer and ten in winter. The figures below start at London Stansted, use the lowest-priced aircraft that can fly each sector and count about an hour on the ground for the technical 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 Papua New Guinea

Typical one-way prices from Britain, cheapest first. The Gulfstream G650ER heads the Port Moresby rows because it reaches the capital with a single stop at a lower hourly rate than the Global 7500, the only other aircraft in our table that can. Every figure includes the stop shown:

 

 

Private jet flights within Papua New Guinea and to its neighbours

Port Moresby to Lae is 182 nautical miles, to Mount Hagen 289 and to Rabaul on New Britain 451, while Cairns lies 473 nautical miles from the capital and Honiara in the Solomon Islands 791. The figures show scale rather than a firm quote, because each landing needs a permit and the smaller fields limit the choice of cabin:

Business aviation airports in Papua New Guinea

A foreign aircraft lands only where its permit says it may, so the airport is chosen together with the permit. Port Moresby takes every international arrival, and the other fields are reached from there or by special approval:

 

Six rules shape every arrival:

 

Arriving from Britain: visa, arrival card and what to carry

The traveller, the aircraft and the papers that tie them together are all checked on the way in.

Coming home is a flight into Britain: a General Aviation Report goes to the border authorities not earlier than 48 hours and not later than two hours before departure, and British and Irish citizens need no electronic travel authorisation for Britain. The first landing must be at an aerodrome that is regulated for customs, since a landing at an unregulated one carries a fine of £2,500.

 

 

Which airport for which part of Papua New Guinea

Port Moresby, the Highlands and the reefs: what our clients go for

Most business travellers come for the resource sector. The PNG LNG project, led by ExxonMobil, draws gas from the fields of Hela and Southern Highlands and ships it to Asian customers, and the Ok Tedi mine in the west is another long-standing project. Contractors, lenders and officials meet in Port Moresby, where the national parliament sits and where about 757,000 people live.

Hotels cluster in two places. The Airways Hotel & Residences stands less than five minutes from the airport and the Gateway Hotel & Apartments is close to it, while the Stanley Hotel & Suites in Waigani and the Hilton in Hohola sit next to shopping and convention space.

Leisure clients come for a country with about 840 living languages, the 4,509 metre summit of Mount Wilhelm and long coral coasts. The Kokoda Track is the best known walk: 96 km through the Owen Stanley Range, between Owers' Corner and the village of Kokoda, usually four to twelve days, with a permit from the Kokoda Track Authority and a licensed operator.

Flying to Papua New Guinea with a dog or a cat

A dog or cat can fly to Papua New Guinea in the cabin, but the paperwork starts weeks ahead, the animal may spend time in quarantine, and the way home is the harder half.

Britain's rules for the return are stricter. Papua New Guinea is not on Britain's list of countries with simple pet-travel rules, and for a dog or a cat coming from such a country Britain requires a Great Britain pet health certificate and a rabies blood test:

• A rabies vaccination, then a blood sample at least 30 days later, tested at an approved laboratory for a result of 0.5 IU/ml or higher;
• A wait of three months from the date of the sample before travel to Britain;
• A Great Britain pet health certificate issued within 10 days of arrival;
• 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 sensible plan is to have the sample taken in Britain months before departure. 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 so it is priced low rather than flown for nothing.

A client who can move by a week or two has the best chance. Whatever is free is listed on our empty legs page. A selection of Papua New Guinean empty legs follows, at roughly 40 percent of a fresh charter:
