Private jet charter in Philippines

Of all the places clients ask us to reach from Britain, the Philippines sits among the farthest, roughly sixteen hours away once a fuel stop in Dubai is counted, and the length of the flight is not the hard part of the planning. The hard part is the arrival: one congested capital airport that rations business traffic, a second field a long drive to the north, and islands where most of the places people want to go have runways too short for a jet. 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 the Philippines that means a landing permit and a ground handler lined up before the aircraft leaves Britain, a customs team that meets the jet on the apron, and a plan for the last stretch to Cebu, Palawan or Boracay, whether by a smaller aircraft, a helicopter or a boat.

 

 

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 the Philippines 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 Dassault Falcon 900LX to Manila Ninoy Aquino with one technical stop in Dubai 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 the Philippines?

The Philippines keeps Universal Time plus eight hours all year and does not change its clocks, so it is seven hours ahead of Britain in summer and eight in winter. A morning departure from a London airfield arrives in the small hours of the following day by the local clock, which is one reason the permit and the customs crew are booked for the hour of landing and not just the date. These are the sectors from London Biggin Hill on the lowest-priced aircraft that can fly them with one stop in Dubai, gate to gate, including about an hour on the ground:

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 the Philippines

Typical one-way prices from Britain, cheapest first. Subic Bay, Clark and Puerto Princesa lead the table because they lie a little closer to Dubai than Manila does, while Cebu, Bohol and the Scottish pairings need a bigger cabin. Every figure includes the technical stop in Dubai:

 

 

Private jet flights within the Philippines and to its neighbours

The country is long and wet, and its islands are far apart by sea and close by air. Manila to Cebu is 318 nautical miles, to Puerto Princesa 328, to Kalibo for Boracay 195, and Clark is only 51 nautical miles from the capital. The table gives the hops we are asked for most, with Hong Kong, Taipei, Singapore, Bangkok, Tokyo and Bali as the neighbours clients add to a Philippine trip:

 

 

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

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 the Philippines:

 

 

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

Business aviation airports in the Philippines

Business jets use a short list of Philippine airports. The first rows are the ones our flights use most, the later rows matter for onward legs and for knowing what not to attempt, and hours are in local time unless the source says otherwise:

 

Three constraints shape every arrival:

 

Arriving from Britain: entry, permits and the handler

For passengers the border is easy and the paperwork is online. For the aircraft the permit is what sets the date.

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.

 

 

Which airport for which part of the Philippines

These are the usual pairings of address and airport, each checked against the permit:

 

Manila, Cebu, Boracay and Palawan: what our clients go for

Manila takes most of the business traffic. The banks and head offices sit in Makati and Bonifacio Global City, a short drive from the airport, and a delegation with a few days of meetings is the standard job.

Cebu is the second centre. Companies go to Mactan for the export zone, while the island's resorts and the diving along its coasts draw families and groups who would otherwise spend a day on connecting flights.

Boracay is the beach most clients name first. It has no jet runway of its own, so the trip is built from a flight to Kalibo, a drive, and a boat, or from a transfer by helicopter that skips the road.

Palawan is the quiet end of the country. El Nido and Coron are lagoons and limestone cliffs, reached from Puerto Princesa by a turboprop hop or a long drive, and many parties spend several days on a yacht.

 

Philippine seasons: the dry months and the typhoons

The country is hot all year, and the choice is between sun and rain, and between crowds and quiet:

 

The Philippine calendar: festivals, Holy Week and Christmas

The dates that matter fall in different islands:

 

 

Flying to the Philippines with a dog or a cat

The Philippines admits dogs and cats on an import permit, and the way home asks for a blood test that has to be planned months before the outbound flight. We obtain written confirmation of the rules before an animal is booked.

A health certificate from the vet accompanies the animal, and a quarantine officer inspects the animal and the papers on arrival. The bureau's page adds that an antibody titer test will become a condition for new applications, so the rule is checked on the day the permit is requested, and the entry point and any quarantine are confirmed in writing before we price the flight.

The way back is the longer project. The Philippines is not on the list of countries whose pets travel to Great Britain on the standard terms, so a dog or a cat needs a Great Britain pet health certificate and a rabies blood test:

• The animal is microchipped before the rabies vaccination, and travel waits at least 21 full days after the first vaccination;
• The blood sample is taken at least 30 days after the vaccination and sent to an EU-approved laboratory, and the antibody level must be at least 0.5 IU/ml;
• The animal then waits 3 months from the date of the sample before it enters Great Britain, and the result stays valid as long as the rabies vaccinations are kept up to date.

A dog also needs a tapeworm treatment from a vet between 24 and 120 hours before arrival in Britain. The three-month wait shapes everything, so the blood test is taken at home, well before the outbound flight, and your vet confirms that the interval is met before a return date is set. If the rules are not met, the animal can be put into quarantine for up to four months. The rules of Dubai, as a third country, are checked for an animal that stays aboard during the stop. 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. On a route this long the saving is large in cash, and the catch is as large.

Clients who offer a window of several days match most often, though a leg can vanish when the original booking changes. Whatever is free is listed on our empty legs page. A selection of Philippine empty legs follows, at roughly 40 percent of a fresh charter:

 

 

 

Helicopter charter

Helicopters matter here because the last stretch to a beach or a resort is often a place a jet cannot land and a road makes slow. The sectors we are asked for most are these:

A helicopter suits the first or last stretch of the journey and not a flight across the archipelago, and the rotary leg is booked together with the rest of the itinerary.

 

 

Flights from the UK to the Philippines

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 across Manila, Clark, Subic Bay, Puerto Princesa, Cebu, Bohol and Kalibo. 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.
