Private jet charter in Kittila

Kittilä lies about 1,248 nautical miles north-east of London, well inside the Arctic Circle, and a private jet covers the distance in a little over three hours - short enough that a party leaving a London field at eight in the morning is on the ground by early afternoon and on the fell for the last of the light. Private Jets UK arranges the charter around the version of that day you want. 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. Kittilä has one 2,500 m runway, no hangar for visiting aircraft and a winter calendar that fills the apron, so the decisions that matter are the date, the handler and the cabin size.

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 Kittilä 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 Luton, 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 Kittilä?

Allow between about two and three-quarter hours and three and a half hours, depending on where in Britain you start, and put your watch two hours forward on landing: Finland keeps Eastern European time and changes its clocks on the same dates as Britain. The sectors in the table run from 1,092 to 1,330 nautical miles, which is long for a light jet but well within the range of the Phenom 300E and everything larger. Most winter parties choose a Phenom or a midsize cabin because of the skis and the coats, and the table shows the sector from each British field we use.

Private jet flights from Kittilä

A Kittilä trip is usually a round trip to Britain or Central Europe, but the same aircraft can also work the north. Rovaniemi, Ivalo and Enontekiö are turboprop hops inside Lapland, Tromsø is across the Norwegian border, and Helsinki, Stockholm, Oslo and Copenhagen sit a morning away. Skiers from Germany and Switzerland are a single flight. 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 Kittilä:

This is a small part of what is available. Kittilä sits at the far northern end of the European fleet, so an aircraft is more often found in Helsinki, Stockholm or Oslo than on the apron next door, and the cost of bringing it north is a visible part of every quote. That is why the date you choose and the aircraft base matter more here than the model.

Business aviation airports in Kittilä

One airport does the work for Levi and Ylläs. The others on this list matter as a back-up, for a trip that is really to another part of Lapland, or because a quote names them and you should know why.

Four points settle most Kittilä arrivals:

Border, passport and the way home

Because Finland is inside Schengen, the first landing is where the formalities happen, and everything after that, a hop to Rovaniemi or a drive to Ylläs, is free of border control. A first landing at Kittilä is possible, because the airport is on the Finnish border crossing list, and that saves a stop for passengers; it is for animals that the picture changes, as the pets section below explains. A foreign operator's commercial charter that carries passengers in and out of Finland needs permission from the Finnish transport agency, requested at least 48 hours ahead and not counting weekends and public holidays, while a non-commercial private flight needs no such permission, only the flight plan and passenger details. We check which category your booking falls into when we confirm the operator. The way home runs the other way. Britain treats the aircraft as arriving from abroad, so a General Aviation Report is filed not earlier than 48 hours and not later than two hours before departure, and passengers pass the border at the British airfield. Visitors who need no visa for Britain still need an Electronic Travel Authorisation unless they are British or Irish citizens. You declare anything that may be prohibited or subject to duty, since the usual EU limits on meat and milk products apply to what you carry into Finland.

From the apron to the fells

Kittilä is the third-largest municipality in Finland by area, yet most passengers who land here are heading for one of two fells. Levi, in the village of Sirkka, is a fell of 531 metres with 43 pistes and 27 lifts, and a ski season that often runs from October to mid-May. Ylläs, across the municipal boundary in Kolari, is a larger fell of 719 metres with 61 slopes, 29 lifts and 330 km of cross-country trails, split between the villages of Äkäslompolo and Ylläsjärvi. The airport serves both, and a party that splits its week between them can do so with a single aircraft and a single handler.

Flying to Kittilä with a dog or a cat

For a pet the paperwork is the part of a Lapland trip that needs planning. The flight is the easy bit: the animal sits beside you in the cabin, never in a hold, and a dog that has been out in the snow all day sleeps on the way home. Finland adds a fixed airport for the animal check, and the dates on the certificate need the same care.

What Finland, as an EU country, asks for:

• An ISO microchip (standard 11784, FDX-B or HDX) that can be read with a standard scanner, fitted before the rabies vaccination;
• A rabies vaccination given when the animal was at least 12 weeks old, with the 21-day wait observed after the first vaccination and the vaccination still valid on the day of entry;
• An Animal Health Certificate issued by an official veterinarian, valid for ten days for entry to the EU and for the return to Britain as stated on the certificate, together with the owner's declaration that the journey is not commercial. A British pet passport is not accepted for entry to the EU;
• No more than five animals per traveller. The Finnish Food Authority lists Helsinki-Vantaa as the only airport where a pet arriving from outside the EU can be presented to customs, and Kittilä is not on that list, so we confirm in writing that the rule applies to your private flight, plan the first landing at Helsinki, clear the animal there, and fly on to Kittilä as a domestic leg;
• A tapeworm treatment for dogs, given by a vet between 24 and 120 hours before the dog arrives in Finland and recorded on the certificate. Cats do not need it. A dog flying directly home from Finland to Britain needs no further treatment, which is required only if it has been in another country or the routing includes one, and we confirm that in writing.

Requirements for cats, ferrets, birds and anything less usual are collected on our flying with pets guide. For the flight home, we confirm the entry point and the paperwork for the animal in writing before the flight.

The Kittilä calendar: from the ruska to the midnight sun

Kittilä has no off-season in the way a Mediterranean island has. The year is a sequence of light and dark, from the long white nights of summer to the weeks in December when the sun does not clear the horizon. Knowing which one you want matters more than choosing an aircraft, because the winter weeks are the only ones in which the airport is crowded.

Ways to bring the Kittilä price down

• Shift the dates if the diary allows. A midweek flight in January, or a week in March after the school holidays, costs less than the week between Christmas and the New Year, and the snow is as good;
• Ask where the aircraft is based. A jet that already sits in Helsinki, Stockholm or Oslo costs less to bring north than one flown out from Britain, and on a sector of this length the positioning is a visible slice of the invoice;
• Do not pay for waiting. A jet that stays at Kittilä for a week is parked outside with no hangar, and the standing time is charged. For a stay of more than a couple of days, ask for a quote for a drop-off and a separate pick-up as well, and compare;
• Take the light jet only when the party and the bags are small. Two people with cabin bags save real money in a Phenom; five people with ski bags do not, and the quote that looks cheap on paper is often the one that changes.

Types of flights

Kittilä produces a mix of its own, because the same runway serves a ski week, an aurora weekend and a corporate incentive.

• Family ski weeks at Levi or Ylläs, usually four to eight people, with the Christmas and New Year week the most requested;
• Aurora weekends, often for couples who stay in a glass igloo or a cabin and want to see the lights between the autumn and March;
• World Cup weekends in Levi in November, with a fixed date, a small group and a request for a car at the aircraft door;
• Husky, reindeer and snowmobile trips as part of a corporate incentive, or a winter break for a company team;
• Arctic loops that put Kittilä, Ivalo and Tromsø, or Kittilä and Rovaniemi, into one itinerary;
• Midnight sun weeks in June and July, mostly hikers and families on a summer holiday.

Kittilä does not suit a day trip. At over three hours each way, the flight takes more of the day than the visit, and in December there is hardly any daylight at all. Leave on a Friday, come back on a Monday and you have a weekend that works, with the crew waiting at the airport or, if the aircraft goes home empty and returns for you, with a pair of positioning legs on the invoice. We price both ways so you can compare.

Empty Legs

Some jets fly north or south with nobody aboard, moving to their next job, and the operator will sell that seat-free leg cheaply rather than fly it for nothing. That is an empty leg. On the Kittilä route the supply follows the winter season.

Because the Lapland corridor is thinner and more seasonal 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 Kittilä match the day an operator releases it.

Helicopter charter

A helicopter in Lapland is a tool for the edges of a trip. Levi is a quarter of an hour from the airport by road, so the aircraft does not save much time there; what it changes is the landing site. The places where rotary flight earns its fee are the last stretch to a chalet, a transfer between Levi and Ylläs, and a flight over the lakes and fells at the right hour.

The machines used on this ground are the Airbus H125 for short scenic work, the wider H130 for chalet and fell transfers, the H135 and the Bell 429 where a twin is wanted, and the H155 for larger parties. We book them alongside the jet so that both crews work to one timetable. The figures above use a straight-line distance at a cruise of about 115 knots, and the final time is confirmed with the operator.
