Private jet charter in Toronto

Crossing the Atlantic from Britain takes about seven hours in a large-cabin jet and noticeably more in anything smaller, which has to stop for fuel on the way out. Private Jets UK arranges the charter around whichever aircraft the crossing calls for. 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. Toronto has a famous downtown airport that private jets are not allowed to use, a large international one 20 km out where nearly all of them land, and three smaller fields that matter on the right day, so the decisions are the aircraft, the airport and the paperwork, in that order.

 

 

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 Toronto 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. On a crossing of this length the choice between a nonstop long-range cabin and a smaller jet with a fuel stop moves the price more than any other item. 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, a Bombardier Challenger 350 with a stop at Gander 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 Toronto?

The nonstop crossing from London to Toronto Pearson takes about 7 h 05 min in a Global 6000 from Farnborough, and a little under that from Scotland. We allow a routed distance of 2,967 to 3,219 nautical miles depending on the British field, against a published range of 3,200 nautical miles for a Challenger 350, which a westbound headwind and fuel reserves cut too far, so that aircraft makes the trip in two legs with a stop at Gander in Newfoundland. Toronto keeps Eastern time, five hours behind Britain for most of the year, so a morning departure from London lands in the late morning, Toronto time. The times below assume a headwind going west, which is the normal state of the North Atlantic. The table gives the sector from each British field we use.

 

 

 

Prices for the private jet flights to Toronto

Typical trips from Britain, cheapest first, all of them into the business aviation terminals at Toronto Pearson. The film festival in September and the long summer weekends sit above these figures, and the calendar block further down explains when.

 

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:

 

 

Private jet flights from Toronto

Toronto is a good starting point for a North American loop. Montreal and the cottage country are short enough for a morning, New York and the eastern seaboard are a light-jet hour and a bit away, and Vancouver is a full coast-to-coast day. The way home is the same crossing as the way out, with the wind on the tail. 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:

 

 

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.

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 Toronto run:

 

 

 

This is a small part of what is available. Aircraft that can cross the Atlantic are fewer than the ones that serve Europe, and their positions change daily, so a long-range jet already in London or Paris is often cheaper than one that has to be brought over from North America first. Equally, when the first leg is a return to Britain a day or two after our trip, we look for an aircraft that is coming this way anyway.

Business aviation airports in Toronto

Four airports around the city can handle a business jet, and a fifth, the best known, cannot take a jet. It helps to know which is which before a quote arrives.

 

Four points settle most Toronto arrivals:

 

 

Border, passport and Canadian customs

Canada is not in the Schengen area or any shared travel zone with Britain, so every passenger is cleared by the Canada Border Services Agency on arrival. British citizens need an electronic travel authorisation, the eTA, and a valid passport to board a flight to Canada. The eTA costs CAN$7, about £4, is applied for online and is usually approved within minutes. It is not needed by a dual British and Canadian citizen travelling on a Canadian passport. The normal visit is up to six months, and the passport has to be valid for the length of the stay. Flight crew are exempt from the eTA. Apply well before the day, because a few cases are not approved at once.

 

 

For the aircraft there is a separate set of steps, and our handler and the operator carry them out. On the guidance we work from, the pilot in command telephones the Canadian border reporting centre no earlier than 48 hours and no later than two hours before departure for Canada, giving the aircraft registration, the estimated arrival time and the name, date of birth and citizenship of everyone aboard. Passengers stay with the aircraft until they are cleared, unless an officer is waiting at the stand. For a larger party, more than 39 people at Toronto, the clearance has to be arranged with the border agency in advance. Pets, weapons and ammunition have to be notified in advance as well. We confirm the procedure with the operator for each trip, because the rules change and a booking has to follow the current text, not a memory of it.

One useful fact for choosing the airport: Pearson, Billy Bishop, Oshawa, Waterloo and Gander all have a customs presence, but with different hours and different limits on party size. Oshawa takes up to 50 people on call, Waterloo up to 180 with two hours' notice, and Gander is staffed round the clock. If the arrival is late at night, the airport is often chosen for its customs hours rather than its distance from the hotel.

The way home has its own formalities. Britons and Irish citizens need no permission to enter the United Kingdom, while most other visa-free visitors need a UK electronic travel authorisation. For the aircraft, a General Aviation Report is filed with the UK authorities no earlier than 48 hours and no later than two hours before departure. The penalties for getting it wrong are real: a fine of £2,500 for a first landing at an aerodrome that is not a regulated one, and £2,000 for each passenger carried without permission. The operator and handler file the report, and we check that it is done.

 

From the apron to the waterfront

Toronto is a city you reach in under an hour from its main airport and then travel through by car, subway or a short ferry. Downtown sits on the north shore of Lake Ontario, the island airport lies directly off it, and the distances that matter on a business trip are the ones to Pearson, to Hamilton and Waterloo, and the long run to Niagara and the lakes.

 

Flying to Toronto with a dog or a cat

Canada asks for little paperwork on the way in and more on the way home. The animal sits with you in the cabin, and the flight is long enough that most dogs sleep through it. What matters is the timing of three documents: the UK export certificate before you leave, the rabies record, and the certificate for the return to Britain, which has a short life.

 

 

What the two countries ask for:

• An export health certificate for dogs and cats going from the United Kingdom to Canada (form 2923EHC), signed by an Official Veterinarian after a clinical examination within 72 hours of export;
• For an animal between 3 and 8 months old travelling with its owner, a rabies certificate meeting Canadian requirements, showing the dates, vaccine, supplier, batch number and expiry. An animal over 8 months needs either a rabies vaccination certificate or a declaration of residency. A puppy under 3 months cannot be vaccinated against rabies;
• Inspection fees are payable at the first Canadian port of entry, and we agree the arrival point with the handler beforehand;
• For the return to Britain, Canada is a "part 2" listed country: a Great Britain pet health certificate issued in the ten days before travel, with a pet passport or animal health certificate not accepted. The rabies vaccination must be at least 21 days old, and no blood test is required;
• For dogs, a tapeworm treatment from a vet between 24 and 120 hours before arrival in Britain. Cats are exempt. No more than five animals per traveller.

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. We also confirm in writing the entry point and the paperwork for the animal on the way back into Britain.

 

The Toronto calendar: a film festival, a carnival and a winter

Toronto's rhythm is set by the weather as much as the events. Summer is the festival season, September belongs to the film festival, and winter is the season when everything that flies has to be de-iced and nothing is as punctual as the timetable suggests. Knowing which week you want matters more than choosing an aircraft.

 

Ways to bring the Toronto price down

• Choose the aircraft for the crossing and not for the fantasy. A Challenger 350 with a stop at Gander costs less than a long-range jet and takes about two hours longer door to door; for four people that is a fair trade;
• Ask where the aircraft is based. A long-range jet coming from London needs less positioning than one coming from Dubai or Florida, and on a transatlantic sector positioning is a large share of the bill;
• Be flexible by a day or two. A flight that avoids the film festival and the long summer weekends is easier to price, and a return that fits an empty leg is cheaper than a fresh charter.

 

Types of flights

Toronto produces a different mix from the European destinations we cover, because it is the commercial capital of Canada, a financial centre and the starting point for a lot of North American travel.

• Financial and corporate travel, tied to the banks and head offices of Bay Street, where the dates are set by a meeting and the cabin by the size of the delegation;
• Film and entertainment travel, which peaks around the film festival in September and has its own demands for privacy and for a terminal that can keep an arrival discreet;
• Transatlantic family and leisure trips, often combined with the lakes, Niagara or a longer tour of Canada;
• Onward journeys to the United States, particularly New York and Florida, using Toronto as the port of entry and a light jet from there;
• Regional business trips to Waterloo, Hamilton and Oshawa, for firms that prefer a smaller airport to Pearson.

The one-way and return question is worth a closer look. On a crossing of this length a same-week return is usually priced as two separate sectors, plus the crew's rest and hotel in Toronto, so we quote both options. Where the stay is short, leaving the aircraft in Toronto and returning on the third day is often better value than flying home empty and coming back, and where the stay is a week or more, two one-way flights are cleaner than waiting.

 

Empty Legs

An empty leg is a repositioning flight with nobody aboard, offered at a fraction of the usual price. On the Toronto route they come from the pattern of events rather than from sheer volume, and it helps to know what produces them.

Because the long-range fleet is small, 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 Toronto match the day an operator releases it.

 

 

Helicopter charter

In Toronto a helicopter is a tool for the edges of a trip and not the middle. Downtown traffic is slow and the lakeshore is close, but landing sites in a built-up area are limited, so most helicopter work is outside the city: lakeside properties, Niagara and the cottage country.

The machines used on this ground include the Airbus H125 for scenic and lake work, the wider H130 for villa transfers, and the H135 and Bell 429 where a twin is wanted. We book them alongside the jet so that both crews work to one timetable.
