Private jet charter in Romania

Leave a London airfield after breakfast and you can be at a Romanian meeting table by mid-afternoon, since Bucharest keeps a clock two hours ahead of Britain and the flight itself takes a little over three hours. Private Jets UK plans these trips around the place you are actually going, because Romania is a big country with its business in the capital, its mountains in the middle and its sea at the far south-eastern edge. 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 Romania that means two things clients seldom think about early: the landing permit that a British-registered charter aircraft needs from the Romanian authority, and the road after landing, which in the Carpathians climbs past 2,000 metres and in the capital is a matter of traffic more than distance.

 

 

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 Romania 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 Biggin Hill, a Cessna Citation CJ3+ nonstop to Bucharest Henri Coanda 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 Romania?

Romania runs on Eastern European time, which is two hours ahead of Britain in every season because both change their clocks on the same weekends. The figures below are gate to gate from British airfields to Bucharest Henri Coanda unless another airport is named, with taxiing and the approach included:

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 Romania

Typical private jet prices from Britain to Bucharest, cheapest first. Every row is a nonstop flight to Henri Coanda. At this distance the price follows the miles, so where you take off matters almost as much as the cabin you choose:

 

 

Private jet flights within Romania and to its neighbours

The road from Bucharest to Cluj-Napoca runs to about 445 km, and Timisoara is further still, so a domestic charter here saves a working day, not an hour. The table lists typical sectors from the capital:

 

 

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.

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 Romania:

 

 

For a Romanian booking the best aircraft is often not in Romania. The nearest suitable jet may be waiting in Britain or at another European capital, so the positioning leg can move the price more than the choice of model. We look at the whole map before a number goes to the client.

Business aviation airports in Romania

Romania has two airports in Bucharest and four more that take a business jet comfortably: Cluj-Napoca, Timisoara, Sibiu and Constanta. Brasov-Ghimbav is the mountain option, and smaller fields such as Iasi in Moldavia and Oradea in the north-west can be used, with customs and handling arranged case by case. The hours below are as listed in the aviation directories we use; the exact opening times of customs and of each handler are confirmed in writing before every flight:

 

Four things settle most Romanian arrivals before a quote goes out:

 

Arriving from Britain: passports, customs and what to carry

Romania applies the Schengen rules, and Britain stands outside them. A flight from London therefore arrives from outside the zone, and the border check takes place at the first Romanian airport on the route. Henri Coanda, Baneasa, Cluj-Napoca, Timisoara and Constanta all have a border post, and with a handler in place the party is processed at the general aviation apron or the executive lounge.

 

 

Which airport for which part of Romania

Romania is a country of several centres, and the right airport decides most of the day. The distances below are straight lines from the airport or road figures from public sources, so allow more for mountain roads in winter:

 

Bucharest, the Carpathians and the Black Sea: what our clients go for

Bucharest is where the business is. The city has about 1.7 million residents and 2.3 million in the wider metropolitan area, and it produces roughly a quarter of the national output, with the headquarters of some 186,000 firms. The Palace of the Parliament, built under Ceausescu, is described as the largest parliament building in the world and houses the National Museum of Contemporary Art. The Old Town of Lipscani keeps Manuc's Inn and the ruins of the princely court, and Herastrau Park in the north holds the open-air village museum.

The mountains are the second reason. Poiana Brasov sits above the city of Brasov at 1,020 m at the base and 1,799 m at the top, with almost 24 km of pistes, the 4,752 m Red Road run and a gondola; snow cover usually lasts from mid-November to mid-March. Sinaia, in the Bucegi mountains, has Peles Castle, the summer residence that King Carol I built in the late nineteenth century, and a cable car that climbs to the upper station near 2,000 m. Predeal lies between the two, and Bran Castle is a short drive from Brasov, so a weekend in the Carpathians is a short job for a helicopter.

Transylvania is the third. Sibiu was settled by Saxon colonists in the twelfth century and was a European Capital of Culture; the Brukenthal National Museum fills a palace on the main square. Sighisoara is a UNESCO citadel, and the fortified churches of villages such as Biertan form another UNESCO group. The Transfagarasan road crosses the Fagaras mountains at 2,042 m beside Balea Lake and is usually closed from late October until late June. Cluj-Napoca, with about 287,000 residents, is the technology and university city.

The east and the coast complete the map. The Danube Delta, a UNESCO site, is the second largest delta in Europe and the best preserved, with 3,446 square kilometres on the Romanian side and more than 320 species of birds in summer; Tulcea is its gate. On the Black Sea the resort of Mamaia lies beside Constanta, and in the north-east the painted churches of Moldavia in Suceava County are a UNESCO group of their own.

 

The Romanian year: ski winter, festival summer and a long autumn

Romania has no single high season: the capital is busy in every month, the Carpathian snow draws the winter traffic, and the festivals and the sea take the summer:

 

The Romanian calendar: festivals, snow and the open road

Dated events are few, and each sends the private flights to one airport:

 

 

Flying to Romania with a dog or a cat

A dog or cat travels in the cabin, and the paperwork has two halves: the standard European set for the way out and one appointment for the way home. Romania applies the rules of the European Union, and Britain is a listed country, so an animal from Great Britain does not need the blood test and the three-month wait demanded of animals from unlisted countries.

• A microchip, fitted before the rabies vaccination, not after;
• A rabies vaccination given at 12 weeks or later, at least 21 days old on the day of arrival and kept in date;
• An official veterinary health certificate for each trip, issued no more than ten days before entry;
• For a dog on the homeward leg, the tapeworm treatment 24 to 120 hours before landing in Great Britain;
• Not more than five animals per traveller.

Cats need the same list without the worming. Two Romanian details deserve a check. Pet-travel sources list air entry for animals at Bucharest and at Cluj-Napoca, so we confirm in writing which airport receives the animal and which desk checks the certificate before we fix the route. Romania also restricts certain dog breeds: the listings show pit bull types, the Boerboel and ban dogs as banned, and several shepherd and mastiff breeds as allowed only with a muzzle, so tell us the breed at the booking.

Requirements for birds, rabbits and the less usual species, along with the countries where the timeline runs to months, 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 a sector of more than three hours the saving is worth chasing, and Romania produces empty legs of its own, because aircraft that take clients out often have no one to bring back.

A client who can offer a few days has a far better chance of a match, though the operator owns the date and a leg can disappear when the original booking changes. Whatever is free is listed on our empty legs page. A selection of Romanian empty legs follows:

 

 

 

Helicopter charter

In Romania a helicopter saves the road between the airport and the mountain or the beach, not the crossing from Britain. These are our estimates for the main transfers, calculated at about 115 knots with a few minutes for the start and the landing:

These are estimates and move with the weather and the load; we confirm the details for your date before the offer goes out.

 

 

Flights from the UK to Romania

Biggin Hill, London City, Luton and Farnborough send most of the traffic on this corridor, with Southampton, Birmingham and Manchester behind them and Scotland and Northern Ireland 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.
