Private jet charter in Livorno

A jet that leaves a London airfield in the morning can have its passengers on the Livorno waterfront by lunch, but it will not land in Livorno: the port city has no airport that takes business jets, and the aircraft comes down at Pisa, about 18 km to the north, where a car is already waiting. Private Jets UK arranges the charter, the handling and that last half hour together. 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. Livorno is a working port, a naval town and a gateway to the Tuscan coast and its islands, which means the interesting question is rarely which aircraft but where the trip actually ends: a cruise terminal, a yacht berth, a vineyard in Bolgheri or a ferry to Capraia.

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 Livorno 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 Livorno?

A little over two hours from Biggin Hill in a light jet, two and a half from Newcastle or Edinburgh, with one hour of clock difference to add on arrival because Italy keeps Central European time. The times in the table are for the flight to Pisa Galileo Galilei, the airport we use for Livorno. At 650 to 960 nautical miles this is a classic short-haul sector: long enough that a light jet is a proper sit, short enough that nobody needs a heavy cabin to make it. The table gives the sector from each British field we use.

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 Livorno:

This is a small part of what is available. Livorno draws on the Italian fleet, so for a booking outside the festival weeks and the summer peak there is often an aircraft already within an hour of Pisa, in Milan, Rome or Nice, and that is frequently where the better price comes from.

Business aviation airports for Livorno and the Tuscan coast

Livorno has no jet airport of its own. One airfield does nearly all the work, a second matters for a stay in Florence, and the rest are small or far. It helps to know all of them before a quote arrives with one of them in it.

Four points settle most Livorno arrivals:

Border, passport and permits

Clear Italy at the airport you land at, and the rest of the trip is inside Schengen with no further control. For Livorno that airport is Pisa, which is an airport of entry with customs, and the drive to the port happens after the formalities, not before them.

A British operator running a charter also needs permission from the Italian civil aviation authority, ENAC. For an aircraft with fewer than 20 passenger seats that is a blanket or single-flight permit, requested at least three working days ahead. We track the permit with the aircraft paperwork, and where a date is too close to be safe we say so before you pay a deposit.

From the apron to the Medici port

Livorno grew under the Medici, and it still shows: a fortress at the harbour, and canals dug in the 1600s with the help of Venetian workers, within sight of the docks. Almost everything a visitor wants is within a short drive of the cruise piers, and the useful numbers are the drives outward, to the sanctuary on the hill, to the wine country of Bolgheri, to Florence and to the ferries for the islands.

On foot the town is compact. The Venezia Nuova quarter, with its canals and low bridges, sits close to the Fortezza Vecchia, which Alessandro de' Medici completed in 1534, and the Terrazza Mascagni, a seafront belvedere paved with 34,800 black and white tiles, looks over the water towards the Tuscan islands and Corsica. The Mercato Centrale and the seafront are where to eat the fish stew that Livorno claims as its own, cacciucco. Above the town, at Montenero, stands the sanctuary of Our Lady of Graces, patron of Tuscany; a funicular climbs to it, and its gallery of ex-votos records rescues at sea, which suits a port.

Flying to Livorno with a dog or a cat

Italy asks for more paperwork than the flight takes, and the flight is short enough that most animals sleep through it. The animal sits beside you in the cabin. What matters is that the certificate is dated correctly, because it has a ten-day life from the day it is issued, and that the vet appointment for the return is booked before you leave the coast.

What the EU rules ask for on the way in:

• A microchip, fitted before or at the same time 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, issued for this trip and valid for ten days for entry to the EU;
• A written declaration that the movement is non-commercial, signed by the owner;
• No more than five animals per traveller, presented at a travellers' point of entry, which we confirm in writing together with the paperwork before the flight;
• For dogs, a tapeworm treatment from a vet between 24 and 120 hours before the return flight to Britain, recorded in the pet travel document. Cats are exempt.

Requirements for cats, 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 Livorno calendar: a summer port with a sailing spring

Livorno has a sailing spring, a festival summer and a quiet winter. The cruise ships and the yachts keep the port busy from spring to autumn, and the weeks that matter for a flight are the ones when the city is hosting something. Knowing which week you want matters more than choosing an aircraft.

Ways to bring the Livorno price down

• Move the dates a few days where you can. The first half of October and the weeks of early spring are quieter stretches with no festival on, and a shift of a day or two off a Friday or a Sunday often matters more than the choice of aircraft;
• Ask where the aircraft is based. A jet already in Milan, Rome or Nice takes less positioning than one from Britain, and on a sector of this length positioning is a meaningful share of the bill;
• Choose Pisa and drive. It has fewer restrictions than Florence, a runway that takes every aircraft and a customs office, and the half hour by road is cheaper than a change of aircraft.

Types of flights

Livorno produces a different mix from Pisa or Florence, because the reason to be there is the sea. The passengers are going to a ship, a yard, a vineyard or an island more often than to a museum.

• Cruise embarkation: couples and families who fly in the day before a Mediterranean sailing and want to be at the terminal with their luggage and no airport queue; turnaround ships board at the Alto Fondale terminal, close to the centre;
• Yachts and yards: owners, guests and crew joining or leaving a boat, and professionals visiting the shipyard in Livorno, which has operated since 1866 and belongs to Azimut-Benetti;
• Wine weekends in Bolgheri and the Etruscan coast, usually with a driver and a villa;
• Island and coast hops to Elba, Capraia, Corsica and Sardinia, by turboprop, helicopter or ferry;
• Florence and Pisa business, flown to Pisa and covered by car;
• Day trips from London, which at about two hours each way are a long day but a workable one.

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 separate one-way charters. Leaving at seven and coming back at nine in the evening gives you a working day on the coast and a bed in your own house, and on this route we quote it both ways so the difference is visible.

Empty Legs

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

Because the Pisa corridor 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 Pisa match the day an operator releases it.

Helicopter charter

On this coast a helicopter is a tool for the edges of a trip and not the middle. Pisa, Livorno and the cruise terminal are a half hour apart by car, so nobody needs a helicopter between them. The places where rotary flight changes the journey are the islands, the wine estates and a yacht lying off the coast.

The machines on this ground are the Airbus H125 for the hills, the wider H130 for scenic and villa 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.

We practice transparency and are always ready to present all necessary documents.
