Private jet charter in Dubrovnik

From a London airfield to the walls of Dubrovnik is under three hours in a light jet, and the part of the trip that needs planning is what happens after landing, not the flight itself. Private Jets UK builds the charter around that: the slot, the handler, the cabin size and the road, boat or helicopter that finishes the journey. 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. Dubrovnik has one airport that matters, a single-runway field at Čilipi with a general aviation terminal of its own, so the real decisions are the date, the length of the stay and whether the trip ends in the Old Town, on the islands or on the Pelješac peninsula.

 

 

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 Dubrovnik 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, an Embraer Phenom 300E 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 Dubrovnik?

Two hours thirty-five minutes from Biggin Hill in a Phenom 300E, three hours and fifteen minutes from Glasgow in a Challenger, and one hour of clock difference to add on arrival, because Croatia keeps Central European time. At 947 to 1,234 nautical miles this is the long end of short-haul: a light jet does it without a stop, but it is a longer sit than the same aircraft would spend on a flight to Paris or Nice, and the cabin matters more than it seems on paper. The table gives the sector from each British field we use.

 

 

 

Prices for the private jet flights to Dubrovnik

Typical trips from Britain, cheapest first, all of them into the general aviation terminal at Čilipi. The July and August weeks and the Summer Festival period sit above these figures, and the calendar block further down explains when.

Private jet flights from Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik is a corner of Croatia, and almost everything of interest to a charter client lies either on the coast to the north or across a border to the south and east. Tivat and Mostar are a few minutes of flying but hours by road, Split is a short turboprop hop up the coast, and the capitals of Central Europe and Greece are an hour and a half away at most. Typical one-way prices:

 

 

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:

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 Dubrovnik:

 

 

 

This is a small part of what is available. A Dubrovnik booking often has an aircraft closer than London: Split, Zagreb, Tivat, Athens and the Italian airports across the Adriatic all have charter fleets, and in summer the coast fills with aircraft that have brought a party in and are free to go home. We look at the whole map before a price is sent, and that is often where the better figure comes from.

Business aviation airports in Dubrovnik

One airport carries the traffic. The others matter when the itinerary crosses a border or reaches up the coast, and it helps to know what each one is before a quote arrives with its name in it.

 

Four points settle most Dubrovnik arrivals:

 

 

Permits and arrival formalities in Croatia

Whether a landing permit is needed depends on what kind of flight it is. The Croatian aeronautical publication says that a private, non-commercial flight by an aircraft registered in a state party to the Chicago Convention needs no entry authorisation, provided the flight plan declares it as private and the aviation agency is notified in writing beforehand. A commercial charter is different. The operator needs the agency's authorisation for non-scheduled flights, applied for at least three working days ahead for one to four flights and fifteen working days ahead for a series, and has to show an EASA third-country operator authorisation or a valid one-off notification, together with the charter agreement and the insurance certificate. Both kinds of paperwork are part of what we prepare, and we confirm the position for your aircraft in writing before the quote is accepted.

An aircraft arriving from outside Schengen, as every flight from Britain does, must first land at an international airport that has customs and passport services. Dubrovnik is on that list. Passport control and customs are available there, and for a private flight the handler arranges them at the general aviation terminal, so the process takes minutes when the crew has filed the passenger list in good time. On the way home the General Aviation Report for the UK has to be filed not earlier than 48 hours and not later than two hours before departure, and a non-British guest who needs no visa for Britain will usually need an Electronic Travel Authorisation; British and Irish citizens are exempt.

 

 

From the apron to the Old Town

Dubrovnik is a small city on a steep coast. Nothing in it is far, but almost everything outside it is: the islands, the wine country, the next border. These are the distances and times that shape a trip, with the journeys by road taken from the Old Town and the ferry times from the harbour at Gruž.

 

Flying to Dubrovnik with a dog or a cat

Croatia is in the EU, so a British dog or cat follows the standard rules for the Union. The animal sits beside you in the cabin. What matters is the calendar: the rabies vaccination, the certificate dated inside its short life, and, for a dog, a vet appointment in Croatia before the flight home.

 

 

What the EU, and Croatia in particular, asks for:

• An ISO microchip, fitted before or on the same day as the rabies vaccination and never after it;
• A rabies vaccination given when the animal was at least 12 weeks old, with 21 days elapsed before entry;
• An Animal Health Certificate from an Official Veterinarian for each trip, valid for ten days for entry to the EU. A pet passport issued in England, Scotland or Wales cannot be used to enter;
• No more than five animals per traveller, entering through a travellers' point of entry, and Dubrovnik airport is on Croatia's list;
• Croatia restricts certain dangerous breeds: pit bull terriers and their crosses that are not entered in the FCI register are refused entry, so a dog of that type needs its status checked before anything is booked;
• For dogs, a tapeworm treatment from a vet between 24 and 120 hours before the return flight to Britain, recorded with product, date and time. Cats are exempt.

Requirements for ferrets, birds and anything less usual are collected on our flying with pets guide, and a pet coming back to Britain must travel with its pet travel document and a declaration. Our managers confirm the entry point and the paperwork for the animal in writing before the flight.

 

The Dubrovnik calendar: a summer city with a few winter dates

Dubrovnik runs on the warm months. The Summer Festival, the sailing season, the cruise ships and the villa weeks all fall in the same stretch, and the rest of the year is quieter and more local. Knowing which week you want matters more than choosing an aircraft.

 

Ways to bring the Dubrovnik price down

• Move the dates a few days where you can. Early July and early September are usually calmer than the festival weeks;
• Ask where the aircraft is based. A jet already in Split, Zagreb or Tivat needs less positioning than one from Britain, and on a sector of nearly three hours positioning is a large part of the bill;
• Book the return at the same time. Two legs arranged together as one trip cost less than two separate one-way charters, and the slot at Čilipi is requested once;
• Take the light jet unless the luggage says otherwise, and consider a Phenom over a smaller cabin for the legroom, since both carry four people comfortably.

 

Types of flights

Dubrovnik produces a different mix from the business capitals we cover, because it is a resort city, a heritage site and the gateway to the southern Adriatic at the same time.

• Villa and family weeks in Konavle, Cavtat and on the Elafiti, where the luggage count decides the cabin and the aircraft waits or goes home;
• Yacht changeovers, with owners, guests and crew flying into Čilipi to join a boat at Komolac or on the coast;
• Festival weekends in July and August, flown in for a performance and out again the following morning;
• Short couples' and friends' breaks tied to the Old Town, the walls and the Game of Thrones locations;
• Wine and food trips to the Pelješac peninsula and Korčula, often combined with a night in Ston;
• Adriatic loops that take in Split, Tivat or Mostar, and onward legs to Athens or the Italian coast.

The weekend trip is worth a closer look. A same-day return from Britain is a long haul for a three-hour sector, so most clients stay at least one night, and the aircraft either waits or goes home and comes back. We quote both, because on a weekend in July the waiting cost can be larger than the positioning cost, and the answer depends on the dates.

 

Empty Legs

An empty leg is a repositioning flight with nobody aboard, offered at a fraction of the usual price. On the Dubrovnik route they come from the pattern of the summer, and it helps to know what produces them.

Because a leg to the southern Adriatic is thinner than the busiest London routes, 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 a Dubrovnik match the day an operator releases it.

 

 

Helicopter charter

In Dubrovnik a helicopter is a tool for the edges of a trip and not the middle. The Old Town is small, closed to cars and best crossed on foot, and the places where rotary flight changes the journey are the islands, the Pelješac peninsula and the coast towards Split.

The machines on this ground are the Airbus H125 for island and villa work, the wider H130 for scenic transfers, the H135 and the Bell 429 where a twin is wanted, and larger types for bigger parties. We book them alongside the jet so that both crews work to one timetable.
