Private Jet Charter at London Stansted Airport (STN)
Private Jets UK arranges private jet charter flights to and from London Stansted Airport (STN), the heavyweight of the capital's business aviation ring. When a trip is big, far or formal, Stansted is usually the answer: its 3,049 m runway is the longest of any London-area business airport, four competing FBOs handle everything from a Mustang to a VIP 747, and when US presidents visit Britain, this is where the aircraft parks. Our charter desk adds over 7,300 business jets to that infrastructure, thirty-five miles northeast of Central London with the airport's own slip roads onto the M11. All figures on this page are in pounds, with euro equivalents alongside.

How much is a private jet from Stansted? It depends on the aircraft first, then the route, slots, parking and extras. London's based fleet keeps positioning charges rare. A light jet to Paris starts near £3,200 one way. Geneva runs closer to £4,500, and a VIP airliner for a hundred passengers is quoted case by case, which at this airport is a normal Tuesday. Fill in the calculator below and a firm quote lands in your inbox, usually inside the hour. No obligation. Just check the contact details carefully, the numbers go to the address you type in.

Long-haul charters from Stansted
This is the airport's home game. Three kilometres of runway release any jet with full tanks and a full cabin: no fuel stops, no payload penalties, no compromises on the hottest days. Ultra-long-range Gulfstreams and Globals depart for Asia and the US West Coast nonstop, and VIP-configured airliners, the true Stansted speciality, carry delegations and touring productions that no conventional business jet can hold.
Treat these figures as the order of magnitude only. A precise calculation is free, takes little time and reflects the aircraft actually available on your dates, which at Stansted includes cabin sizes the rest of London cannot offer.

Four FBOs at Stansted: from private clients to Heads of State
No London airport gives business traffic more choice on the ground. Harrods Aviation runs two houses here: The Knightsbridge, dedicated to Heads of State flights, and The Brompton, tailored for private aviation, and when a state visit brings a presidential aircraft to Britain, this is the ramp it parks on. Inflite Jet Centre adds lounges that scale from two guests to two hundred, which tells you exactly what size of cabin calls here.

Universal Aviation and XJET, operating from the striking Diamond hangar, complete the set of four, and all clear customs and immigration on site with cars driving to the aircraft steps. The layout helps too: the business aviation terminals sit close beside the runway with their own taxiways, so corporate movements slip past the scheduled queue rather than joining it, even at the height of the morning wave.

Which private jets fly to Stansted most often
The Stansted mix leans heavier than anywhere else around London, because the runway invites it. These four define the field:
Boeing BBJ / Airbus ACJ
VIP airliner
The Stansted signature. No other London-area business airport launches these with full tanks, which is why the biggest private cabins in Europe treat this runway as home.
Gulfstream G650
Ultra-long range
The 3 km of asphalt removes every payload compromise: Los Angeles and Singapore depart nonstop with the cabin full and the bar stocked.
Bombardier Challenger 605
Heavy jet
The group-travel workhorse for boards, teams and delegations; twelve seats, transatlantic legs with one stop, and hangar space on the field when the schedule pauses.
Embraer Phenom 300
Light jet
The UK's favourite light jet earns its place here too, covering Paris, Amsterdam and the domestic map while the heavy metal handles the long haul.
Availability at the heavy end is genuinely unique here: cabins for twenty, forty or a hundred passengers exist in London charter only because Stansted can launch them. For delegations, tours and team travel, start the conversation with this airport in mind.
Helicopter charter and transfers from Stansted
The rotary map from Stansted has its own logic. Central London is 25 minutes to Battersea, useful when the M11 misbehaves, but the eastern geography adds destinations the other airports cannot match: Cambridge in ten minutes and Newmarket in twelve, which makes Stansted the private aviation gateway to the races and the sales.
We arrange twin-engine machines such as the Airbus H135, H145 or Leonardo AW109 for city transfers, event days and country weekends. The helicopter meets your jet on the ramp and bags move door to door.
Twin-engine helicopter charter from Stansted starts near £2,400 per flight hour, with a two-hour minimum on most contracts. Newmarket deserves a special mention: twelve minutes by air makes Stansted the natural jet gateway for race days and the Tattersalls sales, and on those dates machines are booked with the flight, not after it.
Useful to know before you fly from Stansted
The 3-kilometre runway
At 3,049 m, Stansted's runway is the longest of any London-area business aviation airport, and it changes the maths: ultra-long-range jets and VIP airliners depart with full tanks and full cabins, no fuel stops, no payload penalties. When the trip is big, heavy and far, this is the field.
Night flights: read this first
Honesty over marketing: while the airport runs 24/7 for scheduled traffic, business aviation night slots have been squeezed hard, and through summer 2026 no private jet movements are permitted between 23:30 and 06:00. A genuine night departure routes via Luton, and we will tell you that upfront rather than after you book.
Four FBOs, real choice
Harrods Aviation runs two houses here, The Knightsbridge for Heads of State and The Brompton for private clients, with Inflite, Universal Aviation and XJET's Diamond hangar completing the set. Competition this dense keeps service sharp and gives us leverage on your handling.
The Ryanair wave, honestly
Stansted is Europe's biggest low-cost base, and the 06:00-09:00 scheduled wave is real. The saving grace is layout: corporate aircraft use their own taxiways and terminals sited right beside the runway, so business movements slip past the queue rather than joining it.
And yes, pets fly from Stansted too: in the cabin, beside you, with the FBOs well practised at four-legged passengers. GB entry rules apply on arrivals from abroad, meaning microchip, rabies vaccination and a health certificate. Tell the broker the breed and the weight, and everything else is arranged.

The field's story explains its shape. Built in 1943 as a wartime bomber base, its extravagant runway is an American inheritance, and the airport grew through charter flying long before the low-cost boom arrived. Today the same asphalt serves both worlds at once: Europe's busiest low-cost operation on one side, and on the other the completions hangars, government flights and touring productions that quietly make Stansted the most capable business aviation field in the London system.

Stansted holds the northeast corner of London's business aviation ring and the heavyweight end of its work; the rest of the ring covers what it does not:
Not sure which field fits? Ask the broker. We compare hours, handling and positioning across all the London-area airports before quoting, and on tight schedules the right choice saves both money and an hour of your day.

Private jets are ready to take off
Our database contains over 6,500 business jets and helicopters across Europe and beyond, and publishing it in full would help nobody. So here is the practical shortlist: the classes that actually work Stansted day after day, with typical hourly rates to anchor expectations.
Light jets
Paris, Amsterdam and the domestic map: the quick end of a heavyweight field.
Turboprops
The Channel Islands, Le Touquet and Newmarket on race days.

Midsize jets
The Mediterranean nonstop with a stand-up cabin and a proper hold.
Super-midsize jets
The corporate class: transcontinental legs, best price per seat beyond three hours.
Heavy, ultra-long range and VIP airliners
The Stansted speciality: full tanks off 3 km of runway, cabins from twelve seats to a hundred.
Every one of these can be sourced with 24-48 hours' notice, often faster. And if the trip outgrows even the BBJ, ask anyway: Stansted is one of the few airports where the answer can still be yes.

Flight payment options
Our consultants will offer you flight options to match both your needs and your budget.
