Private jet charter in Graz

Two hours from the London fields and a jet is on the ground in Styria, where the real decision is between the city, the racetrack and the mountains. Private Jets UK arranges the charter around whichever of the three it is. 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. Graz is Austria's second city and a modest one, with an airport to match: a 3,000 m runway, a handler on the apron and a railway station a few minutes' walk from the terminal. Nothing about the airfield is difficult. The thought goes into the rest of the plan, which usually means the Red Bull Ring in early summer, the Dachstein ski slopes in winter or a quick hop over the border into Slovenia.

 

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 in Graz 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 Graz?

About two hours from Biggin Hill in a light jet, two and a half from Edinburgh, and one hour to add to the clock on arrival, because Graz keeps Central European time. At 683 to 946 nautical miles the sector sits in the middle of the short-haul range: far enough that a light jet is a proper sit, close enough that nothing needs a heavy cabin to complete it. The table gives the sector from each British field we use.

Door to door, and the clock on the wall

Leave a London airfield at seven in the morning and you are on the ground at Graz a little after ten local time. The airport lies about 9 to 10 km south of the city centre, and the Graz-Feldkirchen railway station is 420 m from the terminal, with the S1 reaching Graz Hauptbahnhof in 13 minutes. Most clients still choose a car, which puts a hotel by the Mur or a meeting room in the old town within a short drive of the apron. Add the run to the British airfield and the quick processing at both ends and the journey from central London to central Graz comes to roughly four hours.

Light jet or midsize: what the Graz run actually turns on

– Up to about four people with ordinary bags, a light jet is the right answer and the saving over a midsize cabin is real. The runway is 3,000 m, so none of the usual light types is restricted by length, and the Learjet 75, Citation M2 and Citation XLS are the aircraft that move through Graz most often;

– Past that, or with ski bags, camera cases, racing kit or a dog, we price a midsize jet next to it so that both figures sit on the same page. Luggage settles the cabin more often than seats do;

– Heavy aircraft make sense for a large party, for a single aircraft that stays with you across several European stops, or when Graz is the first leg of something longer. The apron takes aircraft up to the size of a Boeing 747, so size is never the constraint.

Private jet flights from Graz

Graz is not the Alpine gateway it is sometimes taken for, but it is a good base for a loop through the southern corner of Central Europe. Ljubljana and Zagreb are short turboprop hops, Venice and Budapest are light-jet flights of under an hour, and Salzburg and Innsbruck are about an hour in a turboprop. Typical one-way prices:

Styria from the air: where a turboprop makes sense

Graz to Salzburg is 114 nautical miles and to Innsbruck 175, distances a Pilatus PC-12 covers for a fraction of what a jet would cost on the same sector, which is why we quote it first. The ski areas around Schladming and the Dachstein are about 160 km from Graz and a drive of roughly an hour and fifty minutes, so for them the real question is whether the road is acceptable or whether a helicopter earns its fee. The Austrian Grand Prix and the September motorcycle race are Styrian events, not Viennese ones. From Graz the Red Bull Ring is about an hour by car or 20 minutes by helicopter, while Vienna is roughly two hours away by road.

Before you accept an onward quote from Graz

– Which airport, and when it is open. Graz itself is listed at roughly 06:00 to 23:30 and is not a round-the-clock field, and Klagenfurt has a night curfew. A quote that ignores either will change later;

– Whether the itinerary is one booking. Graz to Ljubljana to Venice over three days costs noticeably less arranged as a single trip, because the aircraft and crew stay with you and do not reposition to Graz between each stop.

 

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:

Turbopropsfrom £850/h
Small jet£1,700 - 2,500/h
Light jet£2,100 - 3,000/h
Medium-sized jet (Citation XLS+, Hawker 800XP)£3,000 - 3,700/h
Large medium-class jet (Challenger 300)£4,600 - 5,500/h
Large jet (Legacy 600)£4,900 - 5,800/h
Long-haul jet (Global 5000, G550, Falcon 7X)£5,800 - 8,800/h
Business linersfrom £10,300/h

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 Graz:

 

Light jets, and where most bookings land

At about two hours this is still the sensible class for four or five people with ordinary luggage. Nothing here lacks the range or the runway for Graz, so the money goes on flying hours and not on capability you will not use.

HondaJet Elite · 5 seatsfrom £1,900/h
Cessna Citation CJ3+ · 7 seatsfrom £2,400/h
Embraer Phenom 300E · 8 seatsfrom £2,600/h
Cessna Citation CJ4 Gen2 · 8 seatsfrom £2,700/h

Midsize, for ski bags and racing kit

Skis, camera cases, team equipment and a week of cold-weather clothes are what push a party past the light-jet hold, and the bags decide the class before the headcount does.

Learjet 75 Liberty · 8 seatsfrom £3,000/h
Cessna Citation XLS+ · 9 seatsfrom £3,100/h
Cessna Citation Latitude · 9 seatsfrom £3,900/h
Embraer Praetor 600 · 9 seatsfrom £3,400/h

Super-midsize and large

For a delegation travelling as one party, for a team that works in the air, and for trips that carry on from Styria to the Gulf rather than turning round.

Bombardier Challenger 350 · 9 seatsfrom £4,000/h
Bombardier Challenger 605 · 12 seatsfrom £4,350/h
Dassault Falcon 2000LXS · 10 seatsfrom £4,900/h
Gulfstream G450 · 13 seatsfrom £5,800/h

Turboprops

The right aircraft for the Slovenian and Croatian hops and for the Austrian legs to Salzburg and Innsbruck, where the saving over a jet on short distances is large.

Pilatus PC-12 NGX · 9 seatsfrom £1,400/h
Beechcraft King Air 350 · 9 seatsfrom £1,650/h

Helicopters

Not for the flight from Britain but for the last stretch: the Red Bull Ring on a race weekend, the Dachstein valleys, or a country estate with a lawn and no runway. The landing site is agreed before the quote.

Airbus H130 · 6 seatson request
Airbus H135 · 6 seatson request
Bell 429 · 6 seatson request

 

online private jet directory

 

This is a small part of what is available. Graz is not a hub, so the aircraft you want is rarely sitting on the apron when you ask. More often it is already in Vienna, Munich, Budapest, Zagreb, Ljubljana or northern Italy, a short positioning flight away, and that positioning is a visible part of the price. A client who is flexible about the model usually pays less than one who insists on a particular tail.

Business aviation airports in Graz

One airport does the work for nearly every trip to Styria. The others matter for particular reasons, and it helps to know them before a quote arrives with one of them in it.

Airport What it gives you
Graz, Thalerhof
GRZ / LOWG
The answer for most trips. About 9 to 10 km south of the city centre, with a 3,000 m asphalt runway, an elevation of 340 m and customs on site. The airport is listed at roughly 06:00 to 23:30, slots are required and handling is not compulsory. Business aviation is served by Magnum FBO, Swissport Executive and the Joint Aviation Station, and a heated hangar is available for visiting aircraft
Klagenfurt
KLU / LOWK
The Carinthian alternative, about 92 km in a straight line from Graz, with a 2,720 m runway about 3 km from the city centre. Described by charter specialists as a nearby option with VIP handling, and one of the airports suggested for the Red Bull Ring. It has a night curfew, so late arrivals are planned around it
Maribor, Edvard Rusjan
MBX / LJMB
The nearest foreign airport, 32 nautical miles from Graz on the Slovenian side of the border. Useful when the trip is really to Maribor, or when a Slovenian leg is part of the plan. It is a small regional field and its services, hours and customs availability are confirmed for each request
Ljubljana, Brnik
LJU / LJLJ
Slovenia's main airport, 64 nautical miles away. Not a replacement for Graz but the natural second stop on a Slovenian loop, or the arrival airport if the trip is mostly in Slovenia
Vienna International
VIE / LOWW
About 150 km north-east of Graz and roughly two hours from the Red Bull Ring by road. It matters here as the large, well-equipped fallback for long-range aircraft and for arrivals that Graz cannot take, with a road transfer afterwards

 

Four points settle most Graz arrivals:

Choose the handler

Magnum FBO is the full-service name on the field, with a private VIP lounge, gourmet catering, air stairs, helicopter refuelling and an on-site car rental desk. Swissport Executive also handles executive flights. Service and price differ, so we ask the operator which one it prefers before we confirm.

Hours and slots

Graz is not open all night: airport and tower are listed from about 06:00 to 23:30 local time. Slots are required, handling is optional, and a delayed return from a race weekend or a dinner can run into the closing window, so we plan the departure well inside it and agree it with the crew.

Border and passport

Austria is in Schengen and Britain is not, so you clear the border at the terminal. British passport holders need no visa for a short stay of up to 90 days in any 180, with a passport under ten years old and valid for at least three months beyond departure. The handler arranges the formalities on the apron.

Car and ground

Tell us the handler as well as the flight, because a driver sent to the wrong door waits there. For race weekends and Advent weekends ask for the car and the driver to be fixed in the quote, as taxis and hotel transfers get scarce when the stands and the markets fill.

 

business aviation

 

Border, passport and the Slovenian line

Maribor is about 50 km from Graz, and the Slovenian border is closer still, so a trip that crosses it is a normal part of life in Styria. Austria and Slovenia are both inside Schengen, and a car moves between them without a check. The one border that matters is the first: you pass it at the Graz terminal when you arrive from Britain, and the same applies in reverse on the way home. If a leg of the trip ends at Maribor or Ljubljana, tell us before the quote, because the second country needs its own landing arrangements and permissions.

From the apron to the Schlossberg

Graz is a city you reach in a few minutes from Thalerhof and then explore on foot. The historic centre holds more than a thousand buildings, the Schlossberg rises 475 m above the old town, and the Kunsthaus and the Murinsel sit next to the river. The distances that matter run outward: to the Red Bull Ring, to the Dachstein and to Slovenia.

Flying to Graz with a dog or a cat

Austria asks for more paperwork than the flight itself takes. The animal sits beside you in the cabin and nothing goes in the hold, so for most dogs and cats the two hours are uneventful. What decides the trip is the date on the certificate, which is valid for entry into the EU for only ten days.

 

private flight with animals

 

What the journey from Britain requires:

  • A microchip, fitted before the rabies vaccination;
  • A rabies vaccination given when the animal was at least 12 weeks old, with 21 days elapsed before the vet appointment for the certificate;
  • An Animal Health Certificate completed by an Official Veterinarian no more than ten days before the animal enters the EU. It also covers onward travel within the EU and the return to Britain for four months from issue, and it is valid for one trip only;
  • The animal travels with you or within five days of you, and more than five animals are allowed only for a competition, show or sporting event;
  • For dogs, a tapeworm treatment from a vet no less than 24 hours and no more than 120 hours (five days) before the return to Britain, recorded with product, date and time. Cats are exempt.

What catches owners out on a Styrian trip

– The tapeworm treatment is for the way home, not the way in, so the vet appointment is booked in Graz towards the end of the stay and not before leaving. On a race weekend or a ski trip with a tight Sunday departure, the window of 24 to 120 hours is easy to miss;

– A pet passport issued in England, Scotland or Wales is no longer valid for entering the EU. A fresh certificate is required for each trip, and it is worth saving a copy on your phone as well as on paper;

– A dog at an Advent market or on a ski transfer is an ordinary booking. Settle the hotel and any helicopter before the quote, because a hotel has to accept the animal and a helicopter operator has to agree to it separately.

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 Graz calendar: a university city with a racetrack

Graz keeps a more even year than a ski resort and a more eventful one than most business towns. Film in March, motor racing from April, classical music in summer, folk traditions in September and a long Advent finish the year, with the mountains drawing their own winter crowd. Knowing which weekend you want matters more than the choice of aircraft.

March
The Diagonale, the festival of Austrian film, takes place in Graz every March. Demand is modest and mostly for small parties from the film and media world
April
The DTM, GT and other touring-car racing is on the Red Bull Ring calendar in April, and teams and guests flying in for it use Graz first
June
Formula One Austrian Grand Prix at the Red Bull Ring, with Formula 2 and Formula 3 and the Porsche Supercup on the same weekend. The circuit holds around 105,000 spectators, and the airport, helicopters and cars all fill together. Book early
Summer
Styriarte, the summer festival of early and Baroque music, takes place in Graz and around Styria. In August the Red Bull Ring runs its Classics weekend. Quieter than the race weekends and easier on prices
September
Aufsteirern, a free festival of Styrian folk traditions, fills the squares and courtyards of the old town. The motorcycle Grand Prix at the Red Bull Ring runs in the same month, and the Steirischer Herbst arts festival is an autumn event
Mid-November to 24 December
Advent markets in the historic centre: city breaks by air, mostly small parties, sometimes with a few days in the Alps added afterwards
New Year
Celebrations in the city from about 29 to 31 December, then ski parties heading to the Dachstein area, about 160 km from Graz
Winter
Skiing in the Schladming area, with Graz as the arrival airport and a drive of around an hour and fifty minutes, or a helicopter for those who prefer to skip the road

Why a race weekend costs more

Not the flying. The European light and midsize fleet is large and Graz is well placed within it. What gets tight is the apron, the handler staff, helicopter capacity and cars, all in the same few days, and a small regional airport has less slack than a capital. A booking made a fortnight before the June Grand Prix can still be done, but it pays more and may mean an aircraft positioned from Vienna, Munich or Budapest. The same booking made five or six weeks earlier is simpler and cheaper. Outside race weekends and the Advent Saturdays Graz is an easy airport to charter into, and a flight can usually be arranged in a day or two.

 

Ways to bring the Graz price down

  • Move the dates a few days where you can. The week after the Grand Prix weekend is calm, and so is most of October once the autumn events are over;
  • Ask where the aircraft is based. A jet already in Vienna, Zagreb or Budapest takes less positioning than one from Britain, and on a sector of this length positioning is a meaningful share of the bill;
  • Take the light jet unless the luggage says otherwise. Four people and four bags do not need a midsize, and the money saved pays for the car and the hotel.

 

Types of flights

Graz produces a different mix from the capitals we cover, because it is an industrial and university city, the arrival point for a motorsport venue and the start of a road to the mountains and to Slovenia.

  • Motorsport weekends at the Red Bull Ring, from teams and guests to groups on a hospitality package, flown to Graz with a helicopter transfer;
  • Business visits to an industrial and university city with four universities and more than 60,000 students;
  • Weekend city breaks built around the UNESCO-listed old town, Eggenberg Palace and the Advent markets;
  • Ski trips to the Dachstein area, flown to Graz and finished by road or helicopter;
  • Cross-border hops to Slovenia and Croatia, usually by turboprop and often tied to a Graz stop;
  • Longer onward flights from Graz to the Gulf, Istanbul or the Mediterranean for clients who prefer a quiet regional airport to a capital.

The day trip is worth a closer look. A same-day return means the aircraft and crew wait for you rather than going home, and that waiting is paid for, but it still comes out cheaper than two one-way charters. Leaving at seven and flying home at six gives a full working day in Graz and your own bed that night, and on this route we quote it 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. At Graz they follow the pattern of the events, and it helps to know what produces them.

Where Graz empty legs come from

– Race weekends. Aircraft bring guests to the Red Bull Ring and leave empty on the Sunday evening or the Monday, and those outbound legs are the ones most often released;

– The ski season. Operators move aircraft between Graz, Salzburg, Innsbruck and Klagenfurt, and short Austrian sectors between them can be very cheap;

– Advent weekends. Small parties fly in on Friday and out on Sunday, and the aircraft often goes home empty on the day it arrived.

Because the Graz corridor is thinner than the busiest London routes, a client who can name a few days 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 disappear when the original booking moves. Whatever is free is listed on our empty legs page, and we flag a Graz match as soon as an operator releases it.

Helicopter charter

In Graz a helicopter is a tool for the edges of a trip and not the middle. The old town is small enough to cross by car, and the places where a rotor changes the journey are the Red Bull Ring, the Dachstein valleys and the country around the city.

Before you plan around a helicopter

– A helicopter cannot land wherever it likes. A hotel lawn, a private estate or a field next to the circuit needs its status and the owner's permission confirmed before we quote, not after;

– Weather sets the schedule. Low cloud in the valleys can stop a helicopter on a day when the jet lands without trouble, so a mountain transfer needs a road alternative planned into the same day;

– The nearest airfield to the Red Bull Ring on the map is Zeltweg, which is a military air base and not a civil option. On race weekends book the helicopter together with the jet or expect to hear that there is no rotary capacity.

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

Flight payment options

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.

Graz charters from the booking notes: six typical trips

What the corridor looks like once a quote turns into a flight. Six typical jobs of the kind that come through our booking notes, described in outline, with the particulars changed.

DAY TRIP · OUT AND BACK

A morning meeting in Styria and home for dinner

Biggin Hill - Graz and return, Citation CJ3+, about 2 h 05 min each way · 4 pax

Wheels up at seven, on the ground at Graz a little after ten local time, in the meeting by noon and back at Biggin Hill in the evening. The aircraft and crew waited at the airport rather than going home, which is a real line in the quote and still comes in below two separate one-way charters. A long day, and it works.

MOTORSPORT · THE OTHER AIRPORT LOST

A group for the Austrian Grand Prix

London City - Graz, Citation CJ3+, about 2 h 05 min · 6 pax

They asked for Vienna because it is the name everyone knows. The Red Bull Ring is in Styria and about two hours from Vienna by road, while Graz is an hour by car and about twenty minutes by helicopter. Same aircraft, a little less flying and a much shorter road. The helicopter was booked with the jet.

SKI · ROAD OR ROTOR

Eight people and ski bags for the Dachstein

Manchester - Graz, Citation Latitude, about 2 h 15 min · 8 pax

The party arrived in the afternoon at Graz and transferred by road to Schladming, about 160 km and a drive of around an hour and fifty minutes. The car was booked in the original quote with a driver who knew about the ski bags. Those bags, not the eight passengers, had selected the aircraft.

ADVENT WEEKEND · A DOG ON BOARD

Four adults and a spaniel for a December weekend

Southampton - Graz, Citation XLS+, about 2 h 05 min · 4 pax + dog

The Animal Health Certificate had to be dated inside ten days of arrival, and the tapeworm appointment in Graz had to fall between 24 and 120 hours before the flight home. We booked both with the aircraft, the hotel accepted the dog, and the whole thing was settled in a single exchange of messages.

SEPTEMBER · THE MOTORCYCLES

A hospitality group for the motorcycle Grand Prix

Birmingham - Graz, Citation XLS+, about 2 h 10 min · 7 pax

A weekend at the Red Bull Ring built around a corporate hospitality package. The cabin was a midsize for the clothing and kit, the transfer was a helicopter shuttle on race day, and the return left on the Sunday evening within the airport's hours rather than after the closing time.

EMPTY LEG · SUNDAY EVENING WEST

A jet already going your way

Graz - London Luton, Phenom 300E empty leg, about 2 h 00 min · 3 pax

The aircraft had brought a party in for a race weekend and was going home empty. The client gave us a three-day window rather than a date, which is what makes these work, and paid well below a fresh one-way charter for a Sunday evening departure to the London fields.

 

Frequently asked questions about flying to Graz

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

About 2 h 05 min from Biggin Hill or London City, and around 2 h 00 min from Luton or Farnborough in a Phenom, covering roughly 683 to 713 nautical miles. From Birmingham, Manchester or Bristol allow about 2 h 10 min to 2 h 15 min, and from Edinburgh or Glasgow around 2 h 25 min to 2 h 30 min. Graz is one hour ahead of Britain, so a seven o'clock departure lands shortly after ten local time.

2How much does a private jet to Graz cost?

From about £9,700 one way on a light jet out of Biggin Hill, and £9,700 from London City. A midsize cabin runs £12,700 to £13,550 from the south and Midlands, and from Scotland allow £19,100 to £19,600. Grand Prix weekends, the winter ski weeks and the Advent weekends price above these figures.

3Which airport should a private jet use for Graz?

Graz Airport (GRZ / LOWG) for almost every trip. It is about 9 to 10 km south of the centre, has a 3,000 m runway, customs on site and handlers including Magnum FBO and Swissport Executive. It is listed at roughly 06:00 to 23:30, so it is not a round-the-clock field. Klagenfurt is the main Austrian alternative, Maribor the nearest foreign one, and Vienna the large fallback about 150 km away.

4When should I book a private jet to Graz?

Outside the peaks a day or two is usually enough. For the June Grand Prix, the September motorcycle race and the Advent weekends allow four to six weeks. The apron, the handler, helicopters and cars all get tight in the same days, and a late booking tends to pay more for an aircraft positioned from another country.

5Can I get from Graz to the Red Bull Ring or the Dachstein ski area?

Yes. The Red Bull Ring is about an hour from Graz by car or around 20 minutes by helicopter, against roughly two hours by road from Vienna, so Graz is the airport to book for race weekends. The Schladming and Dachstein ski area is about 160 km from Graz and a drive of around an hour and fifty minutes, and a helicopter transfer can be priced on request.

6Can I take my dog to Graz on a private jet?

Yes. The dog travels in the cabin with you. It needs a microchip, a rabies vaccination at least 21 days old and an Animal Health Certificate completed no more than ten days before entering the EU. For the return to Britain a dog needs a tapeworm treatment from a vet between 24 and 120 hours before arrival. Cats are exempt from the treatment.
