Private jet charter in Antwerp

Under an hour in the air separates the London airfields from Antwerp, and the sector is the easy part of the job. The harder questions are a short runway, a city airport that closes at night and a second airfield, 45 km away at Brussels, that does what Antwerp cannot. Private Jets UK arranges the charter around those facts. 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. Antwerp is a working port city, home to diamond dealers, logistics executives and fashion buyers, and in July the road south to Boom fills with festival crowds. Its airport sits five kilometres from the centre, which is convenient and also the reason it is small, so the real choices are the size of the aircraft, the hour of the flight and whether the trip should land in Antwerp at all.

 

 

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 Antwerp 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+ 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 Antwerp?

About 55 minutes from any of the four main London airfields in a light jet, an hour or so from Southampton and the Midlands, and around an hour and a half from Glasgow, with one hour of clock difference to remember on arrival because Belgium keeps Central European time. At 173 to 440 nautical miles this is a short corridor, and on the southern routes the distance hardly matters: the figures below include taxi, climb and approach, which make up most of the flight. The table gives the sector from each British field we use.

 

 

 

Prices for the private jet flights to Antwerp

Typical trips from Britain, cheapest first, all of them into Antwerp International at Deurne on light and midsize jets. A sector this short is billed close to a minimum charge, which is why several rows carry the same figure. Festival weekends and the Belgian Grand Prix sit above these figures, and the calendar block further down explains when.

 

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:

 

 

Private jet flights from Antwerp

Antwerp is a small base with a long reach. Paris is under an hour, Zurich, Geneva and Munich are about an hour and a quarter, the Tyrol is little more, the Riviera is under two hours and the Balearics a little over two. Typical one-way prices follow, with the two long-haul rows priced from Brussels for the runway reasons explained just below the table:

 

 

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 Antwerp:

 

 

 

This is a small part of what is available. Antwerp sits between Brussels, Rotterdam and Ostend, all of which handle business aircraft, so there is usually a jet already within an hour of Deurne, and for a booking outside festival weeks that is often where the better price comes from.

Business aviation airports in Antwerp

One airport is the answer for most trips, and four others matter for specific reasons. It helps to know them before a quote arrives with one of them in it.

 

Four points settle most Antwerp arrivals:

 

 

Border, passport and the Brussels fallback

Brussels is the exception to the rule that the closest airport wins. If the aircraft is too big for Deurne, if the arrival is after eleven or if an animal has to be presented to customs, land at Zaventem: the formalities are done there, and the motorway to Antwerp afterwards is inside the Schengen area with no border control.

 

 

From the apron to the old town

Antwerp is a city you reach in a quarter of an hour from Deurne and then mostly walk. The cathedral, the old town and the diamond district beside Central Station sit within a short distance of each other, and the distances that matter run outward, to the port, to Brussels and to the festival fields at Boom.

 

Flying to Antwerp with a dog or a cat

Belgium asks for little more than any other EU state, and a short flight suits most animals. The dog or cat sits in the cabin with you, with no hold involved. The detail that matters is the date on the certificate, which is good for entry into the EU for only ten days after the day it is issued.

 

 

What Belgium and the British rules ask for:

• An ISO microchip, fitted before the rabies vaccination and not after it;
• A rabies vaccination given when the animal was at least 12 weeks old, with 21 full days elapsed before travel;
• An Animal Health Certificate from your vet, valid for ten days for entry into the EU and for six months for onward travel and for the return to Great Britain, and a new one for each trip. Belgium's food safety agency also refers to a certificate issued within ten days before departure;
• Presentation to customs at a travellers' point of entry on arrival, which our handler arranges;
• No more than five animals per traveller, since a larger number counts as a commercial movement;
• For dogs, a tapeworm treatment from a vet no less than 24 hours and no more than 120 hours before the return flight to Britain, recorded with the product, the date and the time. Cats are exempt.

Requirements for ferrets, birds and anything less usual are collected on our flying with pets guide, and our managers confirm the position in writing for your dates before a booking is taken.

 

The Antwerp calendar: steady business and a few loud weekends

Antwerp is a city that works through the week and fills for a few events: a cycling classic in spring, fashion in June, a very large festival in July and Pride in August. Between them the base is business, and that business does not follow the calendar. Knowing which week you want matters more than choosing an aircraft.

 

Ways to bring the Antwerp price down

• Keep the aircraft small. A light jet is the cheapest honest quote on this sector and it fits the runway, and the saving over a midsize cabin buys the car and the hotel;
• Ask where the aircraft sleeps. A jet based at Antwerp, Brussels or Rotterdam needs far less positioning than one from Britain, and on a corridor this short the positioning leg is a large share of the bill;
• Fill the seats. Because the price is near a minimum charge, a sixth passenger costs nothing extra, and a day trip with a colleague or two splits the figure;
• Avoid the festival weekends and the Pride weekend if the dates can move, and book the return as part of the same trip rather than as a separate charter.

 

Types of flights

Antwerp produces a different mix from a holiday destination, because it is a trading city: diamonds, a very large port and fashion, with Brussels and its institutions next door.

• Diamond and jewellery trade trips, short, fixed to the working day and flown out and back from London, usually with one or two passengers;
• Port, logistics and industrial visits, tied to the port area about 10 km from the airport, where timing is fixed and the quickest transfer is what matters;
• Fashion and design trips around the Royal Academy's shows in June and the museum calendar;
• Festival groups for Tomorrowland in July, who want a flight in, a villa or hotel near Boom and a Monday morning return;
• Brussels business that lands at Antwerp when Zaventem is inconvenient, and Antwerp business that lands at Brussels when the aircraft is too big;
• Weekend city breaks to the cathedral and the museums, and onward Benelux hops to Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Ghent and Bruges.

The day trip is the one worth a closer look. A same-day return means the aircraft and crew wait for you at Deurne rather than going home, and that waiting is paid for, but it still comes out cheaper than two separate one-way charters. Leaving at eight and returning in the early evening gives you a full working day in Antwerp and your own bed that night, and the corridor is so short that the airport's closing hour never comes into it. We quote the day trip both ways so that the difference is visible.

 

Empty Legs

An empty leg is a repositioning flight with nobody aboard, offered at a fraction of the usual price. Antwerp has resident operators, and one of them, FLYINGGROUP, lists a fleet of more than 40 aircraft at the airport, so the supply here comes from based aircraft going out and coming home as much as from visitors.

Because Antwerp is a small corridor, a client who can name a few days rather than one has a far better chance than one who needs a particular evening. What you give up is the usual: the operator owns the date and the hour, and a leg can vanish when the original booking moves. Whatever is free is listed on our empty legs page, and we flag an Antwerp match the day an operator releases it.

 

 

Helicopter charter

In Antwerp a helicopter is a tool for the edges of a trip, not the middle. The old town is small enough to cross by car, and the places where rotary flight changes the journey are the run to Brussels Airport, the Dutch and coastal airfields and a private site with no road worth the name.

The machines on this ground are the Airbus H125 for light work, the wider H130 for scenic and estate transfers, and the H135 and the Bell 429 where a twin is wanted.

 

 

Flight payment options

All payment details are provided in advance, so you'll have enough time to make the necessary checks. For years of working in business aviation, our company has gained an impeccable reputation. We practice transparency and are always ready to present all necessary documents.

In addition, we conclude formal agreements and provide our clients with all necessary documents and invoices, which guarantees the safe payment and delivery of services. If you have any financial questions, feel free to contact our private aviation consultants.

If you need to book an urgent flight, please keep in mind that the bank transfer can take a few days. In such situations, we may need to involve our partner companies so that you can pay for your flight in cash. If you have any questions, you can contact your personal consultant 24/7.
