Private jet charter in Zadar

Two and a quarter hours out of a London airfield, a light jet arrives at the only Croatian airport with two runways, and the thing that decides the trip is who else is using them. Private Jets UK builds the charter around that. 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. Zadar Airport lies about 7 km from the old town, has a 2,500 m main runway and a separate VIP terminal for business aviation, but it is also the main training base of the Croatian Air Force and a Ryanair hub, so the stands are contested in a way the length of the runway does not suggest.

 

 

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 Zadar 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 Zadar?

About two hours and a quarter from Biggin Hill or London City in a light jet, much the same from Luton, Farnborough or Southampton, and two hours forty to forty-five from Edinburgh or Glasgow. Croatia keeps Central European time, one hour ahead of Britain, so the clock on the wall eats into the afternoon on the way out and gives it back on the way home. At 783 to 1075 nautical miles from the British fields we use, Zadar is a long light-jet sector from the south of England and a job for a bigger cabin from Scotland. The table gives the sector from each field.

Private jet flights from Zadar

Zadar sits in the middle of the Croatian coast, so most flights out of it are short and the interesting ones go sideways rather than outwards. Split, Brač and Dubrovnik are turboprop hops of an hour or less, Pula and Zagreb are quick light-jet sectors, Venice, Vienna and Munich are the usual business neighbours, and Paris and the Gulf make up the long end. 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 Zadar:

 

 

 

This is a small part of what is available. Zadar is not the busiest base for business aircraft, so for a booking in the summer peak the aircraft is often positioned from Zagreb, Venice, Vienna or Munich, and the quote may name one of those cities as the starting point. That is normal for a coastal airport that sees mostly airline traffic, and it is frequently where the better price comes from.

Business aviation airports in Zadar

One airport does the work, and three others matter for particular reasons. Which one is right depends on where you are sleeping and on what else is on the programme, not on the aircraft.

 

Šibenik has no runway for a jet. It is reached from Zadar or from Split, each about 80 km away by road, and the choice between them is made by the programme, not the map. Four points settle most Zadar arrivals:

 

 

Permits, the border and the way home

Croatian rules treat a private flight and a charter differently, and the difference matters for the paperwork. The AIP states that non-commercial flights by aircraft registered in an ICAO member state need no entry or transit permission, while a charter operated for hire by a foreign operator needs the approval of the Croatian Civil Aviation Agency, which the operator applies for a few working days ahead. We tell you which side of the line your booking falls on in the first message, because it sets the lead time.

For the flight home, the General Aviation Report for Britain is filed not earlier than 48 hours and not later than 2 hours before departure, and any passenger who needs an Electronic Travel Authorisation for the UK must hold it before boarding. British and Irish citizens are exempt from it. Goods follow the usual EU and UK allowances, and Zadar Airport has a customs office inside the terminal building with a green channel for passengers who have nothing to declare. We confirm in writing where a private arrival clears passport control and customs, because the VIP terminal and the main terminal are different buildings.

 

 

From the apron to the Sea Organ

Zadar is a small city, about 71,000 people, on a promontory that was once cut off from the mainland by a moat, and everything of interest to a visitor stands within a short walk of the Riva. The Roman forum is the largest on the eastern Adriatic, the round church of St Donatus is the most important surviving building of the 9th century in Dalmatia, and the Land Gate, designed by the Venetian architect Michele Sanmicheli in the 16th century, still carries the Lion of St Mark. The fortifications are part of the UNESCO listing for the Venetian Works of Defence.

At the western tip of the peninsula the city has two pieces of public art that clients ask for by name. The Sea Organ, by the architect Nikola Bašić, is a flight of white marble steps with tubes and a resonating cavity underneath, through which the waves push air and make a low, irregular, harmonic sound. Beside it lies the Greeting to the Sun, a circle 22 m across made of 300 layered glass plates, charged by photovoltaic modules, which lights up after dark and supplies about half of the energy used by the waterfront. Sunset on the steps is the standard evening, and the walk from the old town takes a few minutes.

 

Flying to Zadar with a dog or a cat

Croatia asks for more paperwork than the flight takes time, and the paperwork is the part that goes wrong. The animal sits beside you in the cabin, not in a hold. The date on the health certificate is the detail to watch, because the certificate is valid for only ten days for entry to the EU.

 

 

What Croatia asks for when a pet arrives from Britain:

• An ISO microchip, implanted before the rabies vaccination or on the same day;
• A rabies vaccination given at 12 weeks of age or later, with 21 days passed before the animal travels;
• An Animal Health Certificate for each trip, issued by an Official Veterinarian and valid for ten days for entry to the EU. A British pet passport is not accepted for entry;
• A written declaration that the animal is not being moved for sale, and no more than five animals per traveller, brought in through a designated point of entry; the airports are among the points Croatia lists;
• For dogs, a tapeworm treatment from a vet between 24 and 120 hours before arrival back in Britain, recorded on the paperwork. Cats do not need it.

Requirements for cats, ferrets, birds and anything less usual are collected on our flying with pets guide. For the entry point and the paperwork on the way home, we confirm both in writing before the flight, and our managers check the position for your dates before a booking is taken.

 

The Zadar calendar: a quiet coast with a loud summer

Zadar Airport is the fourth busiest in Croatia and carries about 1.6 million passengers in a year, most of them in the warm months, when airlines from all over Europe add seasonal routes and the stands fill. In midwinter the same apron is far quieter. Knowing which week you want matters more than choosing an aircraft.

 

Ways to bring the Zadar price down

• Move the dates out of July and August where you can. The same coast in the second half of September is warm, quiet and cheaper to reach;
• Ask where the aircraft is based. A jet that already sits in Zagreb, Venice or Vienna needs less positioning than one coming from Britain, and on a sector of this length positioning is a meaningful part of the bill;
• Compare the airports. On the same light jet from Biggin Hill, Pula is priced about £950 lower than Zadar, Zagreb about £400 lower and Split about £650 higher. The saving at Pula or Zagreb is real, but you then have a long drive or a second flight, so let the place you are sleeping decide.

 

Types of flights

Zadar produces a different mix from a business city, because it is a gateway to a coast and a lot of what flies in is leisure with a firm date attached.

• Yacht handovers at Biograd, Vodice or Zadar itself, usually soft bags, a case of provisions and a charter company that will not wait for a late aircraft;
• Days on the water, from the Kornati and Telašćica to the islands off Zadar, with a boat or a helicopter doing the last stretch;
• Pag weekends, from the cheese and the salt works to Zrće beach in July and August, flown into Zadar and driven over the bridge;
• Walking and climbing in Paklenica, where small groups arrive with ropes and harnesses and want the shortest way from the apron to the canyon;
• Excursions to Krka, Plitvice and Šibenik, often a day from a hotel in Zadar and sometimes combined with a night in the old town;
• Hops along the coast to Split, Dubrovnik and Pula, usually tied in with a stop in Zadar.

The day trip is the one to look at closely. Land at a quarter past ten, leave at half past four in the afternoon local time, and you are back in the London area at about a quarter to six UK time, with six hours on the ground in between. 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. 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 Zadar route they follow the rhythm of the season, and it helps to know what produces them.

Because the Zadar corridor is thinner in autumn and winter than in the peak, 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 Zadar match the day an operator releases it.

 

 

Helicopter charter

On this coast a helicopter and a boat compete for the same job, which is the last stretch from the airport to somewhere with no runway. The Kornati have no settlements and no airstrip, Telašćica is a bay at the end of an island, and the national parks are an hour or more away by road. Places where rotary flight changes the day are the islands, the hotel terraces and the trips into Krka and the hinterland.

The machines on this ground are the Airbus H125 for coastal and island work, the wider H130 for villa and harbour 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.
