Private jet charter to Brussels

Brussels is the shortest international sector we sell: under an hour from the London airfields, and twelve kilometres from the ramp to the European institutions. It is also the city where the calendar matters more than the distance, because a summit week changes what is available on the ground. This page covers both halves. Our customers have access to 6500 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. For 15 years of successful work, we have established partnerships with the world’s largest airlines and VIP terminals, which means we can offer you the most favorable 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. The aircraft we quote for Brussels sit at the London fields and across the Low Countries, and on a fifty minute sector the positioning leg is usually longer than the flight you are buying.

 

private jet charter

 

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 Brussels 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).

 

 

 

Every price on this page is indicative and built the way a real quote is built: a named aircraft on a named sector, the passenger count shown. The tables below give current levels, and a personal calculation takes our consultant about 20 minutes through any form here.

 

How long does it take to fly to Brussels?

Forty-six minutes from Luton in a light jet and about the same from the other London fields; the sector is 191 nautical miles. From Birmingham it is fifty-four minutes, from Manchester under an hour, and from Edinburgh an hour and ten. Zaventem is twelve kilometres from the centre, which puts the European quarter about twenty-five minutes from the ramp and makes a same-day return from anywhere in England straightforward.

 

These are the sectors we fly most often into Brussels. On a run this short the climb and the descent account for most of the flight, which is why the times below look longer than the distance alone would suggest:

1 route

  • London Luton - Brussels, by private jet Citation M2
  • Aircraft range: 1550 nm, 2871 km | 404 kts, 748 kmh
  • Route: LTN | EGGW ⟶ BRU | EBBR
  • Distance: 191 nm / 354 km
  • Flight time: 0:46 h

 

2 route

  • London Biggin Hill - Brussels, by private jet Pilatus PC-12 NGX
  • Aircraft range: 1803 nm, 3339 km | 290 kts, 537 kmh
  • Route: BQH | EGKB ⟶ BRU | EBBR
  • Distance: 170 nm / 314 km
  • Flight time: 0:53 h

 

3 route

  • Birmingham - Brussels, by private jet Citation CJ3+
  • Aircraft range: 2040 nm, 3778 km | 416 kts, 770 kmh
  • Route: BHX | EGBB ⟶ BRU | EBBR
  • Distance: 250 nm / 463 km
  • Flight time: 0:54 h

 

4 route

  • Manchester - Brussels, by private jet Citation XLS+
  • Aircraft range: 2100 nm, 3889 km | 441 kts, 817 kmh
  • Route: MAN | EGCC ⟶ BRU | EBBR
  • Distance: 289 nm / 536 km
  • Flight time: 0:57 h

 

5 route

  • Edinburgh - Brussels, by private jet Challenger 350
  • Aircraft range: 3200 nm, 5926 km | 470 kts, 870 kmh
  • Route: EDI | EGPH ⟶ BRU | EBBR
  • Distance: 413 nm / 765 km
  • Flight time: 1:10 h

 

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 Brussels

Below are the approximate prices for recent flights from across the UK, sorted from the lowest price. This is the shortest international sector on the site, and under an hour from the London area the clock stops driving the cost: handling at both ends, the minimum day charge and where the aircraft happens to be sitting matter more than the aircraft type does. That is why a turboprop from Biggin Hill and a light jet from Luton land within a few hundred pounds of each other.

170 nm / 314 km
Pilatus PC-12 NGX 6 from 1,800 GBP

Two things that move the price on this route

– The institutional calendar. European Council summits, ministerial weeks and NATO meetings put a great deal of state and corporate traffic onto the same ramp at once, and in those windows the constraint is parking rather than aircraft. We book handling first and the aircraft second when the dates fall in one;

– The Channel corridor is one of the densest in Europe for repositioning flights, because aircraft cross it empty in both directions all day. If your timing is flexible by a few hours, ask us to check the empty legs before we quote a fresh charter.

We can arrange flights from any city in the UK. If you have any questions about the departure or the flight itself, please use 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:

  • Turboprops - from 1400 GBP per flight hour;
  • Small jet - from 1800 to 2500 GBP per flight hour;
  • Light jet - from 2300 to 3200 GBP per flight hour;
  • Medium-sized jet (identical to Cessna Citation XLS+, Hawker 800XP, etc.) - from 2900 to 3700 GBP per flight hour;
  • Large medium-class jet (similar to Challenger 300, etc.) - from 4500 to 5000 GBP per flight hour;
  • Large jet (similar to Legacy 600) - from 4900 to 5700 GBP per flight hour;
  • Long-haul jet (similar to Global 5000, Gulfstream G550, Falcon 7X, etc.) - from 6500 to 8500 GBP per flight hour;
  • Business liners - from 10000 GBP per flight hour.

Private jets are ready to take off

Our database holds over 6500 business jets. On a sector this short the aircraft type decides comfort and capacity rather than journey time, so the question that matters is how many of you there are and what you are carrying:

Turboprops

More competitive here than on almost any route we sell. Under two hundred miles a PC-12 or a King Air arrives within a few minutes of a jet and costs a great deal less, which is why the cheapest line in the table above is a propeller.

Pilatus PC-12 NGX · 8 seatsfrom £1,500/h
Beechcraft King Air 350 · 9 seatsfrom £1,700/h

Light jets

The workhorse class on this sector. A Citation M2 or a CJ3+ covers the Channel crossing in under an hour with everyone aboard, and for two to six people travelling on business it is what most of our Brussels bookings fly on.

Cessna Citation M2 · 7 seatsfrom £2,100/h
Embraer Phenom 300 · 6 seatsfrom £2,400/h
Cessna Citation CJ3+ · 8 seatsfrom £2,600/h

Super-midsize

Booked when the party is eight or nine, or when the aircraft continues elsewhere in Europe the same day. On the Brussels sector alone the extra cabin rarely earns its cost, and we will say so.

Cessna Citation XLS+ · 9 seatsfrom £2,900/h
Embraer Praetor 600 · 9 seatsfrom £4,200/h
Bombardier Challenger 350 · 9 seatsfrom £4,600/h

Heavy jets

For delegations of a dozen and for the institutional traffic that fills the ramp during summit weeks. Range is never the reason on this route; seats, hold space and the ability to wait on the ground are.

Bombardier Challenger 605 · 12 seatsfrom £4,900/h
Embraer Legacy 650 · 13 seatsfrom £5,300/h
Dassault Falcon 2000LXS · 10 seatsfrom £5,500/h

Ultra-long range

Seen at Zaventem regularly but almost never on a UK sector. These arrive from Washington, the Gulf and Asia for the same meetings, and Brussels is one stop on a longer itinerary rather than the destination.

Bombardier Global 5000 · 13 seatsfrom £6,900/h
Gulfstream G550 · 16 seatsfrom £7,000/h
Bombardier Global 6000 · 13 seatsfrom £7,200/h

  • Departure on the route.

 

Business aviation airports in Brussels

Three Belgian airfields take private traffic for this city, and the choice between them is driven by the calendar as much as by geography. Zaventem is the default; the other two exist because Zaventem fills up.

Brussels Airport (BRU / EBBR)
the main field at Zaventem, business aviation terminals run by ExecuJet, Luxaviation and AviaVIP
12 km to the centre
Antwerp (ANR / EBAW)
a 1,510 m runway that suits light and midsize cabins, business terminal on the field
50 km to the centre
Brussels South Charleroi (CRL / EBCI)
its own business aviation terminal, a 2,500 m runway and slots when Zaventem has none
46 km to the centre

Zaventem is where almost every booking goes. It is twelve kilometres north east of the centre, it works around the clock, and the general aviation apron sits away from the commercial terminals with its own road access. Handling is in experienced hands: the FBOs here have run flights around European Council and NATO summits for years, which is the specific competence this city calls for. Luxaviation Belgium, the largest Belgian operator, has been based here since the nineteen sixties.

When we move you to Antwerp or Charleroi

– When a summit or a ministerial week has taken the parking at Zaventem. This is the usual reason, and it is a question of stands rather than runway;

– When the schedule wants an aircraft to sit for two or three days. Long stops are easier and cheaper away from the main field;

– Antwerp suits the diamond quarter and the northern business belt directly, and its runway takes light and midsize cabins comfortably; anything larger goes to Zaventem or Charleroi;

– Charleroi has the longer runway of the two alternatives and works well for arrivals heading south into Wallonia or on towards Luxembourg.

Whichever field you use, the drive into the European quarter is the part that varies. From Zaventem it is twenty to twenty-five minutes outside the peak and forty inside it; from Antwerp and Charleroi allow an hour. The ring road around Brussels is among the most congested in Europe, and on a summit day sections of the Schuman quarter close entirely, which is worth knowing before a meeting is scheduled for nine in the morning.

Flying to Brussels with a dog or a cat

Belgium is straightforward in both directions and the flight is under an hour, which makes this one of the easiest routes we fly with an animal. The paperwork is the standard European set and your own vet will have issued it many times.

What Belgium asks for on the way in:

  • An ISO 11784/11785 microchip, implanted before the rabies vaccination rather than after it;
  • A rabies vaccination given at least 21 days before entry, the animal being 12 weeks old or more when it was administered;
  • An EU Animal Health Certificate from a UK government-authorised veterinarian, issued within 10 days of arrival and valid for the return home for up to four months;
  • Up to five animals per owner, travelling with the owner as a non-commercial movement;
  • Praziquantel from a Belgian vet 24 to 120 hours before landing back in Britain, recorded with the date and the product. Dogs only; cats are exempt.

Two practical points on this route

– The worming appointment for the journey home has to happen in Belgium inside the 24 to 120 hour window. On a two-night trip that is a tight but workable schedule, and we book the vet with the flight rather than leaving it to the last afternoon;

– On a trip of a single day it does not work at all, because you will be back in Britain before the earliest permitted treatment time. For a day return the animal stays at home, and we say so at the quote stage rather than after the booking.

Why the short sector helps

Nothing goes in a hold and no weight limit applies, so a large dog travels exactly as a small one does, on the cabin floor beside you. At fifty minutes most animals barely settle before the descent begins, which is the opposite of the problem a long flight creates. Brussels itself is relaxed about dogs in cafes and on public transport, and the parks in the European quarter are generous.

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

 

Types of flights

Our company provides all types of business flights. Due to a wide variety of jets, we can arrange:

  1. private flights;
  2. corporate flights;
  3. business class flights;
  4. concert tours;
  5. medical flights (with doctors and special equipment on board);
  6. tourist flights for large and small groups;
  7. sports charters for teams and coaching staff;
  8. combined flights (partly by business jet, and partly by helicopter);
  9. exclusive flights on luxury jets for businessmen, celebrities, and politicians;
  10. cargo flights, etc.

A flexible approach and a wide experience allow us to solve problems of any complexity. In 90% of cases, we manage to arrange urgent flights (on the day of application). But to be sure, we recommend you send a request at least 2-5 days before the desired date of departure.

Empty Legs

Another way to fly cheaper is to use Empty Legs. This service allows you to save on regular charter rates. As you know, part of the flights is one-way (for example, when the passenger flies from England to Brussels). After the flight, the jet returns to its home base (for example, to London Farnborough airport) empty. Such flight is called “Empty Legs”. Empty leg flights can be as cheap as 50-75% off the standard charter price. This option is profitable for both the passengers and the charter companies. The clients can enjoy the services of business aviation at a very good price, while the airlines recoup part of the cost of fuel and jet maintenance.

It is almost impossible to find Empty Leg flights, as the information about them is stored in special databases available only to the aviation brokers and specialized companies. You should know that Empty Leg flights offer the same service as private jet charters. The passengers enjoy a 100% private jet flying experience. Services and flight conditions are discussed individually. We should note that our company cooperates with the world’s largest home bases, so we can offer our clients a wide choice of return flights. Just send a request to our manager who will help you find the best flight options. Please note that Empty Leg flights are sold out very quickly. To avoid such a problem, you can leave us a deposit, and we will contact you as soon as the flight of your choice becomes available. For additional information, check with the operators.

Jet Sharing

Today, Jet Sharing is just as popular as private jet charter. This service involves the joint rental of a business jet with other passengers (that is, the cost of the flight is divided equally between all passengers of a specific flight). This type of flight has become especially popular in the last few years. Many people like Jet Sharing because it allows you to enjoy all benefits of business aviation at favorable prices.

We should note that the number of passengers per Jet Sharing flight varies from 3 to 8, while the cost of the flight ranges from 1200 to 6000 pounds (depending on the destination). This way, you can get a comfortable flight on a business jet (and maybe even meet new business partners) at a very good price. You can check out the schedule of Jet Sharing flights by filling in the online form or contacting our operators by phone or WhatsApp.

Main advantages of this service:

  • All privileges of business aviation, including the use of the business aviation terminal and the check-in 30 minutes before the flight, are retained;
  • You can also use the services of the VIP Lounge (included in the price of the flight);
  • No baggage restrictions;
  • Affordable price: jet sharing is much cheaper than private jet charter;
  • Pets can be carried directly in the aircraft cabin.

 

Our consultants will be happy to help you choose the best flight.

Helicopter charter

Belgium is small enough that a helicopter rarely saves a whole morning, but the Brussels ring road is congested enough that on the right day it saves the meeting. These are the legs we arrange most:

Zaventem to the European quarter and Schuman
when the ring road is at a standstill, which on a summit morning it will be
about 8 minutes
Brussels to Antwerp and the diamond district
fifty kilometres north, an hour by road in traffic
about 15 minutes
Brussels to Bruges and the Flemish coast
the medieval city and the North Sea resorts, ninety minutes by road
about 25 minutes
Brussels to Luxembourg City
two and a half hours by road through the Ardennes
about 40 minutes
Brussels to Spa-Francorchamps
the circuit in the Ardennes, an hour and three quarters by road
about 25 minutes

The machines that work these routes

– Airbus H125 and Bell 407, the light singles behind most transfers in the Low Countries and precise into a confined site;

– Airbus H130 and Bell 429 for a family or a party of six, the usual choice on the Bruges and Antwerp runs;

– Airbus H145 and AgustaWestland AW139 where twin engines are wanted for a larger group or a coastal leg over the North Sea.

Two points on rotary legs here

– Belgian airspace is among the most tightly controlled in Europe and the corridors around Brussels are narrow. Landing sites need authorising in advance, and during summit weeks temporary restrictions apply over parts of the city at short notice;

– Low cloud is the usual reason a leg does not fly, and the Flemish plain gets a good deal of it between November and February. We quote a car alongside rather than instead, and on this route the car is often only twenty minutes worse.

The main goal of our company is to provide the highest level of comfort to our customers. Therefore, we’re always ready to meet you halfway. Our consultants will offer you a wide variety of flights to meet your needs and budget. Most customers prefer a non-cash method (a transfer to an EU bank account), which guarantees a high level of confidentiality and security of payment. 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.

Private Jet UK works with both physical and legal entities. We guarantee the confidentiality and security of payments. You can pay for the flights from Brussels in any convenient way:

  • cashless (by transfer to our account);
  • by cash;
  • by card;
  • by cryptocurrency.

 

Our company works with European and British banks, which allows you to choose the most convenient payment method. 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.

Brussels charters we have flown: six trips from the booking notes

Written up from our brokers’ own notes. Initials replace names, and details are altered where a client would otherwise be identifiable. The prices are what those bookings cost and the flight times match the tables above.

BUSINESS · SAME DAY

Mr R. V.: a committee hearing and home for dinner

London Luton - Brussels, Citation M2, 0 h 46 min · 4 passengers

Out at half past seven, in the European quarter by half past nine local time, back on the ramp at five. This sector removes the overnight entirely, which is the whole argument for it: the same trip on scheduled flights costs a day and most of the next morning. Around 2,300 GBP each way.

INSTITUTIONAL · SUMMIT WEEK

A public affairs firm: five people during a European Council

London Biggin Hill - Brussels, Pilatus PC-12 NGX, 0 h 53 min · 5 passengers

The flight was the easy part. Parking at Zaventem was gone three weeks ahead, so the aircraft dropped them and repositioned to Antwerp for the day rather than sitting on a stand that did not exist. We plan it that way whenever the dates fall in an institutional week, and it costs less than people expect.

CORPORATE · EIGHT TRAVELLING

A Midlands engineering group: a delegation and a plant tour

Birmingham - Brussels, Citation CJ3+, 0 h 54 min · 8 passengers

Eight of them with sample cases, which put the booking into the light jet rather than the turboprop for hold space alone. They used the outbound leg for a briefing and the return was held open for two hours because the meeting was expected to overrun. It did. About 3,100 GBP each way.

DAY RETURN · NO DOG

Ms C. A.: the question we answer most often

Manchester - Brussels, Citation XLS+, 0 h 57 min · 3 passengers

She wanted to bring her spaniel on a single day return, and the answer was no. The tapeworm treatment for the journey home has to be given in Belgium at least 24 hours before landing back in Britain, so a day trip cannot comply. We told her at the quote stage. She travelled without the dog and brought it on the three-night trip a month later.

WINTER · A CLOSED RING

Mr N. D.: fog on the ring road, not on the runway

Leeds - Brussels, Citation XLS+, 0 h 57 min · 6 passengers

The flight landed on schedule and the drive into the European quarter took an hour and ten rather than twenty-five. Nothing went wrong with the aviation at all. The lesson we now apply to every Brussels booking is to build the ring road into the plan rather than the flight time, and to leave the ramp early.

EUROPEAN LEG · THREE CITIES

A Nordic investment team: Brussels in the middle

Copenhagen - Brussels, Citation XLS+, 1 h 13 min · 6 passengers

Copenhagen in the morning, Brussels for the afternoon, Paris the same evening, all on one aircraft that waited on the ground between them. Around 4,800 GBP for the Brussels leg. On a multi-city day the aircraft sitting idle is what you are paying for, and it is still cheaper than three sets of scheduled tickets and two hotel nights.

 

Brussels as a destination

Brussels is a capital twice over: of Belgium, and in practice of the European Union. The Commission, the Council and the Parliament all sit in the same quarter east of the centre, NATO has its headquarters north of the city, and around them has grown the largest concentration of lobbyists, law firms, trade associations and journalists anywhere outside Washington. That is what fills the aircraft on this page from Monday to Thursday.

The city those visitors find is smaller and stranger than its reputation suggests. The Grand Place is generally reckoned the finest square in Europe, the art nouveau of Horta and his contemporaries covers whole neighbourhoods, and the food is taken as seriously as it is in Lyon while being much less discussed. Brussels is also bilingual in a way that shapes everything: French and Dutch have equal standing, every street has two names, and the surrounding region is Flemish while the city itself is majority francophone.

The rest of Belgium is close enough to fold into the same trip. Bruges is an hour and a half by road and twenty-five minutes by air, Antwerp is fifty kilometres north with the diamond trade and a serious fashion and design scene, and the Ardennes begin an hour to the south east. Luxembourg City is two and a half hours by road, which makes a two-capital day realistic on one aircraft.

Where to stay

  • Hotel Amigo, Rocco Forte. Behind the Grand Place, on the site of a sixteenth century prison, and the address most often asked for by clients who want the old centre rather than the institutions;
  • Steigenberger Wiltcher’s. On the Avenue Louise, the shopping and law firm axis, and the traditional choice for anyone whose meetings are in that quarter rather than in Schuman;
  • The Hotel. A tower on the Boulevard de Waterloo with the best views in the city, and the rooms most likely to be free during a summit week because it is large;
  • Sofitel Brussels Europe. On Place Jourdan in the European quarter itself, which matters when the ring road is closed and the walk to the Commission is ten minutes;
  • For a country stay rather than a city one, the Ardennes manor houses south east of Brussels are an hour away by road and change the character of a trip entirely;
  • In Bruges, the small canal-side hotels of the old town, twenty-five minutes by helicopter for anyone combining business with two quiet nights.

What to do

  • The Grand Place and the old centre. Guild houses, the town hall and the surrounding streets, which take an afternoon and are the reason people who expected a dull city change their minds;
  • Art nouveau. Victor Horta built here and his houses are open to visitors, with the Horta Museum in Saint-Gilles the place to start and whole streets in Ixelles worth walking;
  • Eat and drink. Moules, waterzooi and carbonnade in the brasseries, a serious starred scene above them, and the Trappist and lambic beers that Belgium invented and still does better than anyone;
  • Chocolate. The old houses on the Sablon and the Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert, and the reason more Brussels arrivals leave heavier than they came;
  • The Magritte Museum and the Royal Museums of Fine Arts, which hold the largest collection of his work anywhere;
  • Bruges, Ghent and Antwerp, each under an hour and a half by road and each worth a day on its own.

When the city is busy

  • European Council summits. These are the peak days of the year for private traffic here, and the parking at Zaventem goes weeks in advance. Ask us as soon as you have dates;
  • NATO ministerials and leaders’ meetings, which have the same effect and often at short notice;
  • Parliamentary plenary weeks, when the institutional population of the city rises sharply and the hotels in the European quarter fill first;
  • The Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps in the summer, which fills the ramp at Liege and Charleroi as much as at Zaventem;
  • August, when the institutions close and the city is quieter and cheaper than at any other time of year.

 

Frequently asked questions about flying to Brussels

1How long is a private jet flight from London to Brussels?

Forty-six minutes from Luton in a light jet and about the same from the other London fields; the sector is 191 nautical miles and it is the shortest international route on this site. From Birmingham it is fifty-four minutes, from Manchester fifty-seven, and from Edinburgh an hour and ten. Zaventem is twelve kilometres from the centre.

2How much does a private jet to Brussels cost?

From about 1,800 GBP one way from Biggin Hill on a turboprop and about 2,300 GBP from Luton on a Citation M2, rising to around 3,700 GBP from Manchester and 7,300 GBP from Edinburgh. Each figure buys the whole aircraft. On a sector this short the aircraft type matters less than where it is positioned, so ask what is already in the south east on your dates.

3Which airport should I use?

Zaventem for almost everything: twelve kilometres from the centre, open around the clock, with three business aviation terminals and handling teams who work summit weeks routinely. Antwerp and Charleroi are the alternatives when Zaventem has no parking, which happens during European Council and NATO meetings, or when the aircraft needs to sit for several days.

4Does a summit week really change the booking?

Yes, and more than anything else on this route. During a European Council the constraint is not aircraft but stands: the ramp fills with state and delegation traffic and parking is allocated well in advance. We book handling before we book the aircraft in those windows, and we will often plan for the jet to drop you and reposition rather than wait.

5Can I bring my dog on a day trip?

You can bring a dog to Brussels, but not on a same-day return. Coming home, dogs need tapeworm treatment from a Belgian vet at least 24 hours before landing back in Britain, so the trip has to last at least two nights. Belgium asks for a microchip, a rabies vaccination at least 21 days old and an EU Animal Health Certificate issued within 10 days of arrival.
