Private jet charter in Sandefjord

Under two hours from a London airfield, a jet puts you on the Vestfold coast, a shore of islands, harbours and old whaling money. The runway at Torp began as a NATO project and is used today mostly by low-cost airlines. Private clients use it for another reason. It is the airport of the Vestfold coast, a good way south of the capital, with a general aviation area on the north side of the field and an executive handler's terminal of its own. Three questions decide most charters here: whether Torp or Oslo Gardermoen suits the day, what the airport's hours and the handler allow, and what Norway expects of the passengers, the bags and any animal on board. Private Jets UK arranges the charter around all three. 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. Sandefjord is an easy flight into a plain, practical airfield. One long runway, one handler's terminal, a border that works, and a coast behind it that is best seen by someone who has not spent the morning in traffic.

 

 

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 Sandefjord 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. 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 Sandefjord?

Close to two hours from the London fields, with an hour added to the clock on landing, since Norwegian time runs ahead of British. Torp lies 428 to 683 nautical miles from the fifteen British fields below, so each sector stays within light-jet range, and Aberdeen is the nearest, at just under an hour and a half aloft. Each field has its own line.

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 Sandefjord:

 

 

 

The cards show only a sample of the fleet. Torp is central to the Scandinavian fleet, with Oslo, Gothenburg and Stavanger inside an hour, so a suitable aircraft is often waiting close by, and that is usually where a better price comes from.

Business aviation airports in Sandefjord

Only Torp is a real choice for a jet. The others are on the far side of the fjord, too short, or gone altogether, and two of them appear on quotes more often than they should.

 

Four points settle most arrivals at Torp:

 

 

Passport, customs and the way home

The first landing in Norway is the border, and the first landing is usually Torp, where customs and the police are on site. Any later hop to Oslo or Stavanger is a domestic flight and passes without another check. Goods are inspected as well as passports, since Norway is not in the EU: the value limit and the quotas for alcohol, tobacco and food apply to every passenger, and anything doubtful is declared. A small warning for a whaling town: British guidance says that bringing whale meat into the UK from Norway is illegal, and it is better to leave the souvenir on the shelf. Coming home is governed by the British side. The operator files the General Aviation Report with the border authorities in the window from 48 hours to two hours before departure. British and Irish citizens need no electronic travel authorisation; for a passenger of any other nationality we check whether one is required before the date is fixed.

 

 

From the apron to the Whaling Museum

Sandefjord is a town of about 67,000 people on the western shore of the Oslofjord, built on the whaling fleets that sailed to the Antarctic and made it one of the richest places in Norway. The Whaling Museum, the only one of its kind in Europe, keeps the whale catcher Southern Actor at its wharf and a full-size model of a blue whale hanging in one gallery. In the middle of town the Kurbad, a wooden spa building in the style of a dragon, now holds a café, a bar and a gallery. The Gokstad ship itself lies in Oslo, but the mound it was dug out of is on a farm in Sandefjord. Torp serves the whole coast, and the table gives the distances that matter.

 

Flying to Sandefjord with a dog or a cat

Norway has its own animal rules, because it sits outside the EU, and one of them settles the route of the whole flight. Norwegian customs admits a dog or cat from Britain only at Oslo Airport Gardermoen or at the Storskog crossing near Kirkenes, so Torp cannot be the first landing. The animal rides in the cabin with the family, and the onward hop from Gardermoen is short enough that it barely registers.

 

 

What the Norwegian side asks for:

• A microchip, though an older, clearly readable tattoo is still accepted on some animals;
• A rabies vaccination, and for an animal from outside the EU and the EEA a blood test proving that the vaccine protects, unless the country of departure is on the list that is exempt from the test. The Norwegian Food Safety Authority, Mattilsynet, rules on your case and we pass its answer to you in writing;
• A health certificate for animals from outside the EU and the EEA;
• For dogs, treatment against the fox tapeworm with a product containing praziquantel or epsiprantel, given by a veterinarian within the 24 to 120 hours before arrival in Norway and recorded in the pet's documents. Cats are no longer included;
• Notice to Mattilsynet at least 48 hours before arrival, entry through Gardermoen or Storskog, and the red channel at customs when an animal is aboard;
• Certain dog breeds need a special permit from the police.

Requirements for cats, ferrets, birds and anything less usual are collected on our flying with pets guide. On the way back a dog flying directly from Norway to Britain needs no tapeworm treatment, which becomes necessary only if it has been elsewhere or the routing includes another country, and before the flight we confirm in writing the entry point, the routing and the paperwork for the animal.

 

The Vestfold calendar: bathing season, medieval June and classical July

Vestfold lives by its summer. Sandefjord calls itself the Bathing City, with a coastline of 146 km and about 124 islands, and the peak weeks for private flights follow the water and a handful of festivals. In winter the place goes back to business.

 

Ways to bring the Sandefjord price down

• Fly midweek where you can. A Tuesday arrival and a Thursday return cost less than the Friday and Sunday pair, because the same aircraft is not wanted by everyone else;
• Ask where the aircraft sleeps. A jet based at Gardermoen, Gothenburg or Stavanger flies a short positioning leg, and one coming up from the south of England carries the full distance into your price;
• Take the light jet unless the baggage argues against it. A small party with modest bags does not need a midsize cabin, and the difference in price covers the car and a day on the water.

 

Types of flights

Requests for Sandefjord look unlike those for the Alps or the Mediterranean, because the place is a small maritime town on a long coast with the capital up the fjord.

• Business visits to a shipping and maritime town: meetings fixed in the diary, a small team, and the wish to sleep at home;
• Summer weekends on the Vestfold coast, with a boat, a holiday house or a stay at a hotel in Tønsberg, Sandefjord or Stavern;
• Culture weekends built around the medieval festival in June and Fjord Classics in July;
• Trips that finish south of Oslo, in Telemark or on the outer fjord, where Torp is closer to the final destination than Gardermoen;
• Ferry connections, with Color Line sailing from Sandefjord to Sweden and car ferries from Larvik to Hirtshals in Denmark, for a party that carries on by sea.

You can do it in a day. Leave at seven, land around ten local time, take off again at five, and you have about seven hours on the coast and are back in Britain shortly before six. The crew stays with the aircraft, and its waiting time is billed; even so the total usually undercuts two one-way charters, and we quote both so that you can compare.

 

Empty Legs

A jet sometimes flies a sector with no one aboard because its next job starts elsewhere, and the operator prefers to sell the seats cheaply to flying them empty. That is an empty leg. A few patterns produce them around Torp.

Compared with the busiest London routes this corridor has few empty legs, and a client who offers a spread of days has a much better chance than one who insists on a single evening. The terms never change: the operator controls the date and the hour, and a leg can disappear if the original booking moves. Whatever is free is listed on our empty legs page, and we flag a Sandefjord match the day an operator releases it.

 

 

Helicopter charter

On this coast a helicopter earns its place by reaching an island or a quay that the road does not, not by crossing a city. Torp's general aviation area is a base for helicopter and light aircraft operators, and the Scramble airfield guide lists a European Helicopter Centre there with Airbus AS350 and AS355 machines, a Bo105 and Robinson types, and Hesnes Air with an AS350B and an MD500. The distances are short, and the figures below are straight-line flights at a typical helicopter speed, with a few minutes for take-off and landing.

For coastal work the usual choices are the single-engine Airbus H125, the roomier H130, the twin H135 or Bell 429, and the H155 for a bigger party. We book the helicopter with the jet, so both crews fly to one timetable.
