Private jet charter to Norway

Norway runs so far north that a light jet from London reaches Oslo in under two hours and needs more than three to land at Tromsø, which is why the country is booked for such different reasons, from a board meeting in the capital to a week under the northern lights. Private Jets UK plans Norwegian charters around that spread, with Gardermoen for the capital, Stavanger and Bergen for the oil and fjord coast, Trondheim and Bodø in the middle and Tromsø and Svalbard beyond the Arctic Circle. 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. In Norway that means a handler arranged before the aircraft leaves Britain, customs notified on time at the fields that do not keep it round the clock, and the traffic permission a British operator needs before it may fly there 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 Norway 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 M2 to Oslo Gardermoen 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 Norway?

Norway keeps Central European time, so clocks there read one hour ahead of Britain all year. The sectors below are flown from London Biggin Hill on a light jet, gate to gate, and they show how little the first half of the country has in common with the second:

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 Norway

Typical private jet charter prices from Britain into Norway, listed cheapest first. Oslo sets the entry price for the capital, since Gardermoen takes every aircraft type at any hour. The table also shows what the other gateways cost, because the airport on the west coast or in the south is often the better fit for the errand:

 

 

Private jet flights within Norway and to its neighbours

Mountains split the country and the coast is cut into fjords, so the road often runs far longer than the line on the map, and a flight between Norwegian cities is an ordinary choice. These are the hops we are asked for, along with the Scandinavian capitals that clients combine with a Norwegian 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

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 Norway:

 

 

Because the domestic legs need an operator from Norway or the EEA, the quote for a trip that crosses the country often names Oslo, Bergen or a Nordic base as the place the second aircraft starts from.

Business aviation airports in Norway

Norway has dozens of airports for a population of about five and a half million, but only a handful take a private jet from Britain with customs and handling in place. The Norwegian AIP gives hours in UTC, winter time first and summer time in brackets. Norway keeps UTC+1 in winter and UTC+2 in summer, so the clock reading is the same in both seasons, and the table below gives local time:

 

Four rules settle most Norwegian arrivals before a quote goes out:

 

Arriving from Britain: passports, customs and what to carry

Norway is in Schengen and in the European Economic Area, but outside the EU customs union. A private flight from London therefore arrives as a flight from outside Schengen, and both the passport check and the customs control are made at the Norwegian airport where you land, provided that airport has them in place. The airports in the table above that list customs on request are the ones to plan around.

 

 

Which airport for which part of Norway

The arrival airport is nearly always settled by one address: the office in Oslo, the rig supplier at Forus, the quay in Bergen, the cable car above Tromsø. These are the usual pairings:

 

 

Oslo, the oil coast and the fjords: what our clients go for

Oslo is where the government and most of the business sit. The parliament and the ministries stand in the centre, the Nobel Peace Prize is presented in the City Hall on 10 December, and Gardermoen is built for the quick visit: a morning meeting, a lunch, and the same aircraft home before dark.

Stavanger is the other business city. Equinor has its offices at Forus, on the border between Sandnes and Sola, the Norwegian Petroleum Museum stands in the city, and the offshore industry fills the hotels in the weeks around the ONS exhibition, which takes place every two years in the last week of August. Bergen has shipping, seafood and a busy cruise trade, while Trondheim has its university and research institutes, with some 36,000 students at the technical university.

Leisure travel is built around the coast and the fjords. Preikestolen above the Lysefjord draws about 300,000 walkers a year, Bergen's Bryggen is a UNESCO site, and Ålesund was rebuilt in stone and brick in the Art Nouveau style after a fire destroyed the town centre. Tromsø, more than 300 km north of the Arctic Circle, is the city for the northern lights, and Longyearbyen is the place for snowmobiles and dog sledges.

 

The Norwegian year: midnight sun, northern lights and a ski winter

The far north has its own calendar of light and dark, and a charter client should know the pattern before choosing a date:

 

The Norwegian calendar: ski festival, national day, jazz and the Nobel prize

The dated events are few but firm, and each pulls on a different airport:

 

 

Flying to Norway with a dog or a cat

A dog or cat travels in the cabin and the paperwork is the ordinary European set, with one Norwegian twist. The animal has to be presented at a designated border point, and Norway adds a worming treatment for dogs on the way in.

 

• An ISO-standard microchip, fitted before the rabies vaccination;
• A rabies vaccination given when the animal was at least 12 weeks old, with 21 days between the completion of the vaccination and the start of its validity. A blood test for rabies antibodies is needed only for animals from countries that are not on the EU list, and we confirm Britain's status with the Norwegian Food Safety Authority when we book;
• A health certificate in the EU model for third countries, completed by an official vet, together with the notification to Mattilsynet, which should be made at least 48 hours before arrival so that the check is not delayed. A British pet passport cannot be used;
• No more than five dogs, cats or ferrets per non-commercial journey;
• For a dog, a tapeworm treatment with praziquantel or an equivalent, given by a vet 24 to 120 hours before entering Norway and certified by the vet. Cats need no worming.

Some dog breeds may not be imported without a special permit from the police, so an owner of a bull-type or fighting breed applies before booking. Svalbard sets its own conditions: a dog needs a permit from Mattilsynet requested about four weeks ahead, and cats and ferrets are not admitted. We tell the handler in advance and confirm in writing which airport will receive the animal.

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. Norway produces them steadily, because a British aircraft cannot fly domestic sectors, an operator from Norway or the EEA has to be brought in for them, and so much of the traffic runs one way between the capital and the coast.

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 Norwegian empty legs follows:

 

 

 

Helicopter charter

Helicopters in Norway do two jobs for a private client: they shorten the awkward stretches between a fjord and a city, and they show the landscape from above. Gardermoen has a helicopter landing pad of 17 by 17 metres on the general aviation side, and Stavanger has a separate terminal for the helicopters that serve the North Sea. These are the sectors we are asked about:

The times are straight-line estimates at a cruise of about 115 knots, and the operator confirms the route for your date.

 

 

Flights from the UK to Norway

Biggin Hill, London City, Luton, Stansted and Farnborough send most of the traffic on this corridor, with Southampton, Birmingham and Manchester behind them and Scotland and the north-east of England at the short end of the North Sea crossing; 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.
