Private jet charter in Kharkov

Two and a half hours in a light jet puts a London passenger in south-east Poland, a little over an hour's drive from the Ukrainian frontier, and that is the honest limit of what a British charter can promise for Kharkiv. Private Jets UK treats this enquiry differently from an ordinary city charter. 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. Ukrainian civil airspace has been closed to civilian flights since the conflict began, the European Union Aviation Safety Agency tells operators not to fly in it, and the Foreign Office advises against all travel to Kharkiv oblast, so a nonstop flight into Kharkiv International is not a product we can sell. The price on this page is for Rzeszow, in south-east Poland, which is where the long route into Ukraine starts, and we say so on the page itself. When a request cannot be done we tell you before you pay for anything.

 

 

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 Kharkiv 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 London City, a Cessna Citation CJ3+ and two passengers aboard, flying to Rzeszow, the Polish airport we use as the gateway for Kharkiv. A flight into Kharkiv itself is not included in this price. 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 get from London to Kharkiv?

The aircraft stops in Poland. A light jet needs about 2 hours 30 minutes from London City or Biggin Hill to Rzeszow, and no sector from any field we price takes longer than about 2 h 40 min, over 868 to 1,050 nautical miles. What follows cannot be shortened by a better aircraft: about 90 km by road to the station at Przemysl, a train to Kyiv, and a second train to Kharkiv. The table covers the busiest British fields only, and the full price list further down has all thirteen. Kharkiv itself is not listed as a flight, because while civil airspace is closed there is no such flight to put in a table.

Prices for the private jet flights to Kharkiv

These are the prices of flying from Britain to Rzeszow, the airport we anchor the Kharkiv price on, cheapest first. We do not publish a price for a flight into Kharkiv, because it would describe a service nobody can operate. The ground journey beyond Przemysl is not priced or guaranteed by us.

 

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:

 

 

Which Polish airport to choose

Three Polish airports can feed the rail route into Ukraine. The choice is a trade between the price of the flight and the hours that follow it, and the table prices the same light jet from London City to each of them.

 

 

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.

 

Online Calculator

If you want to make an urgent calculation of the cost of a private plane flight, use our 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 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 the flight to Rzeszow:

 

 

 

This is a small part of what is available. A quote may name a base outside Britain as the positioning point for the aircraft, which is normal for a European charter and often where a better price comes from.

Kharkiv International and the Polish gateways

Kharkiv has an airport that business jets used to use, and it is shut to traffic. The airports that matter for a trip to the city sit in Poland, and the table says what each of them gives you.

 

Four things to settle before a Rzeszow landing:

 

 

What the published sources say about a flight into Ukraine

Whether a British-operated business jet could land at Kharkiv is decided by public documents, not by the range of the aircraft. We list what each source says, and we keep to its words instead of adding to them.

 

 

The long way: from Rzeszow to Kharkiv by rail

People do travel to Kharkiv from Poland by land, for reasons that are theirs to weigh against the Foreign Office advice. The route runs through Przemysl, because the railway crosses the border there and the trains to Kyiv are timed around it. We describe it so that the plan is realistic, and we do not sell or guarantee anything beyond the Polish side.

 

 

• From the airport to the platform: a car from Rzeszow to Przemysl is about 90 km and takes an hour to an hour and twenty minutes. We book it with the flight;
• Przemysl to Kyiv: the railway timetables listed by Seat61 show several departures a day, and the faster trains take about nine to ten hours, border control included. Rome2rio gives 11 h 40 min for the whole way from Rzeszow, which fits. RegioJet also runs trains between Krakow, Przemysl and Kyiv;
• Kyiv to Kharkiv: the Intercity services were scheduled at a little over five hours overnight, but the line has seen suspensions, diesel haulage and delays of up to three hours on one section, and some trains have reached the platform after curfew;
• Tickets: Ukrainian Railways sells most tickets, and foreign visitors have needed a Ukrainian digital signature obtained through the railway app, which takes a few hours to verify. RegioJet tickets from Przemysl and Krakow can be bought online without it;
• Air-raid alerts and security checks can stop or slow a service without notice. The Foreign Office says it cannot confirm which services are operating and advises avoiding night-time travel on the roads wherever possible.

 

Documents at both ends of the route

The two ends of the route ask for different papers, and each end has its own surprises.

 

Flying to Rzeszow with a dog or a cat

We advise against taking an animal into Ukraine, where the rail journey is long and can be disrupted. The flight to Poland is simple: the animal sits in the cabin beside you, never in a hold, and the planning goes into the paperwork and its dates.

 

 

What Poland, as an EU country, asks for when a pet arrives from Britain:

• An ISO microchip, fitted before the rabies vaccination or at the same time;
• A rabies vaccination given when the animal was at least 12 weeks old, with 21 days elapsed after the first vaccination before the animal travels;
• An Animal Health Certificate for each trip, valid for ten days for entry to the EU. A British pet passport cannot be used to enter the EU;
• A declaration by the owner that the move is not commercial, and no more than five animals per traveller;
• For dogs, a tapeworm treatment from a vet between 24 and 120 hours before arrival back in Britain, recorded on the paperwork. Cats are exempt.

Requirements for cats, ferrets, birds and anything less usual are collected on our flying with pets guide.

 

Kharkiv for reference: what the city is known for

A page about a city we cannot fly to still owes the reader some account of why people ask. The notes below are reference, taken from the public record. Some of the places below have been damaged, and a visit depends on conditions that nobody can promise.

 

The aviation story has two cities in it. The Antonov design bureau was set up in Novosibirsk in the years after the Second World War and moved to Kyiv in the early 1950s, so its drawing offices are in Kyiv, while the Kharkiv aviation factory, founded in the 1920s, is one of the company's production sites. The Kharkiv Aviation Institute was founded in the early 1930s, and Oleg Antonov himself headed its department of airplane structure for several years in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The institute says it has trained about 53,000 engineers. Kharkiv was also the capital of the Ukrainian Soviet republic until Kyiv took over the role between the wars, and its Institute of Physics and Technology and the Landau Centre carry the science side of the same inheritance.

 

Where the price can come down

• Meet in Poland if the business allows it. That cuts out both train journeys, the Ukrainian frontier and the largest source of delay at once;
• Compare Rzeszow and Krakow honestly. On the same light jet from London City, Krakow is priced about £1,050 lower, and the extra hour or two on the road and rail is a cost of its own;
• Do not plan a short stay. An aircraft that waits in Poland for a party to come back from Ukraine is paid for the waiting, and a quote that ignores it is incomplete. A one-way flight to Rzeszow, with the party returning by a different arrangement, is often the cleaner price.

 

Requests we get and how we answer them

Few enquiries for Kharkiv end as the flight first requested. The work we do on this corridor falls into these groups:

• Business trips by way of Rzeszow or Krakow, priced as a flight with a hotel and a car, and nothing beyond Przemysl;
• Meetings held in Poland instead of Ukraine, which is the outcome we steer towards;
• Flights from Rzeszow or Krakow to Britain for travellers who have already made the crossing by rail;
• Groups and delegations that need a larger cabin to a Polish gateway;
• Medical and cargo requests, which are examined one by one and promised only when the operator, its regulator and its insurer have all confirmed.

A same-day return is not possible on this route. The rail journey alone takes the best part of a day each way, so a trip to Kharkiv by way of Poland is a matter of several days, and we say so before the quote is signed.

 

Empty Legs

An empty leg is a repositioning flight with nobody aboard, offered at a fraction of the usual price. We do not list empty legs into Ukraine. Legs between Britain and Poland do appear, when an aircraft that has taken a party to Rzeszow, Krakow or Warsaw flies home unoccupied.

These legs follow another client's booking. A traveller who can leave on any of several days is far likelier to match one than a traveller who needs a particular evening, since the operator sets the date and the hour and may withdraw the leg if the first booking moves. Whatever is free is listed on our empty legs page.

 

 

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 Jets UK works with both physical and legal entities. We guarantee the confidentiality and security of payments. You can pay for the flights to Rzeszow and the neighbouring airports 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.
