Private jet charter to Helsinki

Helsinki is two and a half hours from London and twenty-eight minutes from Tallinn, which tells you most of what you need to know about where it sits. It is the northernmost capital in the European Union, the gateway to Lapland, and a working port city that happens to be one of the great design capitals of Europe. 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 Helsinki sit at the London fields, in Scotland and across the Nordic and Baltic capitals, and Aberdeen is the shortest British run to Finland.

 

 

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 Helsinki 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 put together the way a real quote is: 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 Helsinki?

Two hours thirty-four minutes from Luton over a sector of 979 nautical miles, and two hours fourteen from Aberdeen, which is the shortest British run to Finland. Edinburgh works out at two twenty-seven, Manchester two thirty-four and Stansted two thirty-one. Vantaa sits seventeen kilometres north of the centre, about twenty-five minutes by road or half an hour on the train.

 

These are the sectors we fly most often into Helsinki. Times include the climb and the descent, and assume the routing across the North Sea and southern Scandinavia that these flights normally take:

• Route: STN | EGSS ⟶ HEL | EFHK
• Distance: 962 nm / 1,781 km
• Flight time: 2:31 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 Helsinki

Below are the approximate prices for recent flights from across the UK, sorted from the lowest price. What stands out on this route is how little the departure point matters once you are past Scotland: Glasgow and Stansted are a single nautical mile apart in distance to Helsinki, and the whole spread from Newcastle to Belfast is barely a thousand pounds:

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:

 

Private jet flights to Helsinki from Europe

Tallinn is fifty-four nautical miles away, which makes it the shortest international sector anywhere on this site, and the Baltic and Nordic capitals are all inside an hour and a half. These are the continental routes we arrange most regularly:

 

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.

 

 

Also, we have prepared a table with the general prices of the most popular planes:

 

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.

 

Online Calculator

Just fill in all the fields of the form with a note that you are interested in a specific model of the aircraft and get the final price. NB! – the figures are sent to you by email or messenger, please carefully fill in the contact details to get the calculation.

All our calculations are as transparent as possible for you. After receiving the request, we will prepare a beautiful offer - where the costs and the final price will be clearly described. The exact price is agreed in advance and is written in the contract, so you can be sure of the final cost.

 

 

Private jets are ready to take off

Our database holds over 6500 business jets. On a two and a half hour sector the question is range with a full cabin, and whether the onward leg to Lapland is part of the plan, because that changes the answer:

 

This is only a part of what is available. The aircraft on your contract is chosen for the sector and the date, and where an onward Lapland leg is involved we plan both together rather than separately.

 

How to book a private jet?

You can book a private jet flight to Helsinki in 6 easy steps:

1. Flight request – indicating the route and your preferences for the model of business jet and other points.
2. Coordination of flight details – our consultant will contact you to offer the possible flight options and answer all your questions.
3. Commercial offer – we will send you a final offer on a specific model taking into account all your wishes.

Our experts will be happy to answer your questions and help you arrange your flight.

• 

  Registration of documents. Payment of the invoice.

• 

  Departure on the route.

 

Business aviation airports in Helsinki

Vantaa is the airport, and one name that still appears in older listings is not an option at all. Helsinki-Malmi, ten kilometres from the centre, was the general aviation field for the region for eighty-five years; the city terminated its aviation lease and the last flight left in March 2021. The land is being built on. Any directory offering it today is out of date.

The business terminal sits on the southern part of the apron, apart from the main building, with aircraft parking directly in front and the car park a few metres from the door. Customs and passport control are on site. For a flight from Britain that means the walk from the aircraft to the vehicle runs to a couple of minutes, and the twenty-five minute drive into the centre is the longest part of the arrival.

 

 

Flying to Helsinki with a dog or a cat

Finland is inside the European pet travel scheme and the paperwork is the familiar set, with one addition that catches people out. Like Norway and Ireland, Finland asks for tapeworm treatment on the way in as well as on the way home.

What Finland 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 journey home for up to four months;
• Tapeworm treatment for dogs before arrival in Finland, administered and recorded by a vet in Britain within the permitted window;
• Praziquantel again from a Finnish vet 24 to 120 hours before landing back in Britain. Dogs only; cats are exempt from both.

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 Helsinki). 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

Southern Finland is flat, well roaded and compact, so a rotary leg here competes against a car that is already quick. Where it wins is water: the archipelago in summer and the gulf crossing to Estonia are both slow by any surface route and fast by air. These are the legs we arrange most:

 

 

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. 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 Helsinki 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.

Helsinki as a destination

Helsinki is a capital of six hundred and fifty thousand people built on a peninsula and three hundred islands, and it is younger and stranger than the other Nordic capitals. It became the capital in 1812, under Russian rule, and the neoclassical centre was built to resemble St Petersburg; the Finns spent the twentieth century filling the rest with the modernism that made the country’s name. Alvar Aalto is everywhere here, and so is the design tradition he belongs to.

The city works in a way visitors notice immediately. The airport train runs every ten minutes, the trams are clean, the water is drinkable and the sea is on three sides. What it does not do is announce itself: there is no cathedral square full of tour groups and no old town in the Tallinn sense, and the pleasures here are quieter than that. Saunas, islands, food that has improved beyond recognition in twenty years.

A good share of the traffic on this page is not stopping. Helsinki is the natural staging point for Lapland, an hour and a quarter further north, and from December to March the aircraft that land here are often continuing to Rovaniemi, Kittila or Ivalo the same day. The city is also the shortest hop from Tallinn anywhere in Europe, at fifty-four nautical miles, which makes a two-capital day genuinely practical.

Where to stay

• Hotel St George. In a nineteenth century building on a garden square in the centre, the best hotel in the city by most reckonings, with the art collection to match;
• Hotel Kamp. The grand hotel of 1887 on the Esplanade, where the country’s political history happened and where the bar still fills on a Friday;
• Hotel Maria. The newest of the top tier, on Mariankatu near the harbour, in a set of restored merchant houses;
• Lapland Hotels Bulevardi, for anyone who wants the northern idiom without leaving the capital, and a decent introduction to what the country does with wood;
• Hotel Punkaharju or the Saimaa lodges, three hours east or fifty minutes by air, for the lake country that most visitors miss entirely;
• Onward to Lapland, which for a good share of our winter passengers is where the actual stay happens.

What to do

• Sauna properly. Loyly on the waterfront and Allas by the harbour are the public ones worth the visit, and the sea swim between rounds is the point rather than an ordeal;
• Suomenlinna. The eighteenth century sea fortress across the water, a UNESCO site, fifteen minutes by ferry and an afternoon well spent;
• Design. The Design Museum, the Aalto house at Munkkiniemi, and the shops along Fredrikinkatu that make the reputation real rather than notional;
• Eat. The market halls at Hakaniemi and the old harbour, and a restaurant scene that has gone from provincial to serious inside a generation;
• The islands. Vallisaari, Lonna and the archipelago beyond, which in summer are where the city goes;
• Tallinn for the day, twenty-eight minutes by air across the gulf, and a completely different city at the other end.

When the city is busy

• December to March, when the Lapland traffic runs through and the onward legs north are the constraint rather than the inbound flight;
• Helsinki Design Week in September, the one week when the city fills the way a congress town does;
• Midsummer in late June, when Finland closes and goes to the lakes, and the city is quieter than at any other time;
• July and August, the short bright summer, when the archipelago and the coastal houses fill and the rotary legs are worth their cost;
• April, May and October, which are the quietest weeks and the best value on this page.
