Private Jet Charter Munich to London

Munich to London by private jet takes about 1 h 37 min over 949 km, Munich to London Luton, normally on a light / midsize jet. This is the westbound half of the pair, so it is the half that usually flies into the wind rather than with it - the time above is a direction-neutral model figure and does not allow for that. Indicative price from €6 800 for the whole aircraft, one way. We quote against your dates within 30 minutes and the operations desk answers around the clock on +357 95 119759.

Westbound out of Bavaria in about 1 h 37 min over 949 km. Give us the address you have to reach in England rather than the airport name: between Luton and Farnborough the flight is much the same and the drive at the far end is not.

The route at a glance

949 km asks nothing unusual of a light / midsize jet, so on this leg the aeroplane is almost never the constraint. Two other things are. The first is direction: upper winds over Europe blow predominantly from the west, so a westbound sector normally has them on the nose, and the estimate below - fitted to our own published times, and the same figure in both directions - does not account for it. The second is capacity, and here the arrival end is the generous one. Munich logged 13,197 business-aviation movements in 2023 against 26,661 at London Luton, so the field you land at has roughly twice the business-aviation traffic of the one you left, and correspondingly more choice on the day.

Distance is the great-circle figure between airport coordinates from the OurAirports open dataset. Flight time is an estimate, not a measured block time: it comes from a model fitted to the flight times Diamond Executive Aero Services already publishes on this website, and it will move with routing, wind, slots and aircraft type. Your quotation carries the real schedule.

Which airports we use

One field at the Bavarian end and a real choice at the English one. Munich is where the leg starts and the only sensible departure for southern Germany, so the question there is the hour rather than the airport. The two London rows are the ones to compare, and the comparison is decided by the drive at the far side rather than by anything in the air.

AirportCodesRoleSuits you if
MunichMUC / EDDM949 kmWhere the leg starts. 13,197 business-aviation movements in 2023 (EBAA 2023), handled through a separate business-aviation facility inside a large scheduled airport - so your own part on the ground is short, but the departure sits inside the hub's traffic and the hour is worth agreeing with us rather than assuming. It is the natural departure point for southern Germany and the eastern Alps, which is where a good proportion of this traffic actually begins.
London LutonLTN / EGGWarrivalWhere the sector ends, and the airport every distance and time on this page is calculated to. 26,661 business-aviation movements in 2023 and fifth in Europe (EBAA 2023) - roughly twice Munich's count - with the deepest choice of long-range aircraft on any given day in the United Kingdom, which matters mostly if the aircraft carries on after dropping you. As an arrival it suits north London and the M1.
FarnboroughFAB / EGLFarrival alternativeThe other place this leg can end, and worth naming before you book rather than after. No scheduled traffic at all, so the arrival is quiet and the walk to the car is short, and it is the better landing for Surrey, Hampshire and west London. Tell us where you have to be that afternoon and we will quote into whichever of the two gets you there sooner.

Aircraft for Munich to London

At 949 km none of these types is working hard, and the class carries six to nine passengers with luggage over a sector this length. So the list below is less a comparison of aircraft than a list of what tends to be free. What decides which one flies you is what is positioned within reach of Munich on your date, and what the aircraft is booked to do after it has dropped you in England.

Cessna Citation XLS

A light / midsize jet with plenty in hand over 949 km. The practical question on this leg is not the type at all but whether one is already standing in southern Germany on your date, or has to be brought in.

See the Cessna Citation XLS ›

Embraer Legacy 450

The same sector without effort, in a different cabin. If you want cabin and hold settled before you commit, say so when you enquire and we will name the actual aircraft rather than the class.

See the Embraer Legacy 450 ›

Hawker 800XP

Equal to the job as well. Where the three genuinely differ is availability on the morning you want to leave - ask us to look across southern Germany rather than at Munich alone and the choice usually widens.

All types above appear on our own fleet pages. Larger cabins can be arranged for bigger delegations.

What it costs

From €6 800 one way. Indicative starting price for this route, whole aircraft, rounded. The date, the aircraft actually available and airport fees move it — tell us your dates and we confirm within 30 minutes.

EUR 6 800 is our own indicative starting point for this leg, worked out from the published prices of comparable sectors in our route list rather than taken from a third-party price page. Read it as a floor. The line most likely to move it is positioning: whether a suitable aircraft is already in southern Germany, or has to be flown in empty to collect you.

When to fly, and when to book early

This corridor runs on the European business calendar rather than a holiday season, and the table reads it from the Munich end. What changes through the year is not the flying but how contested a weekday morning departure west is.

PeriodWhat happensWhat to do
April to JuneThe heaviest stretch on European business routes, with corporate travel, trade fairs and the start of the summer leisure season falling in the same weeks.Two to three weeks ahead for a weekday morning out of Munich. Tell us the hour you have to be somewhere in England, not the hour you would like to take off, and the schedule is built backwards from it.
July and AugustCorporate traffic thins while leisure traffic peaks, and aircraft drift south towards the Mediterranean coast and the islands rather than sitting in Bavaria.The best weeks of the year for an empty leg in one direction or the other. Give us a date window rather than a date and we will watch the movements around it.
September to OctoberThe autumn corporate season, and usually harder to book than the spring one: demand for the same weekday morning departures comes back all at once.Book early for anything in a fair week. If the Munich window you wanted has gone, ask us to compare the two London arrival fields honestly before you take a worse hour.
November to MarchQuieter at both ends, with a slow restart in January. Short winter days matter more here than demand does.Good odds at short notice. If you mean to be back in Munich the same evening, fix the return leg early: it is the airport window rather than the aircraft that ends the day.

Questions we get about this route

Luton or Farnborough - where should we land?
Whichever leaves the shorter drive, since the two are minutes apart in the air. Luton is the busiest UK business-aviation field, with 26,661 business-aviation movements in 2023 and fifth place in Europe, and as an arrival it suits north London and the M1. Farnborough handles no scheduled traffic at all and is the better landing for Surrey, Hampshire and west London. Send us the address rather than the airport and we will quote into the right one.
Is the flight west slower than the flight back?
Often, though not always, and the published figure will not tell you. About 1 h 37 min over 949 km is an estimate from a model fitted to the flight times we publish ourselves, not a measured block time, and it is the same number in both directions. In practice upper winds over Europe are predominantly westerly, so a westbound leg is more often flying into them than with them. Routing, slots and aircraft type move it as well; the schedule in your quotation is the real one.
What sets our departure hour at Munich?
The airport more often than the aircraft. Business aviation at Munich is handled through its own facility, which keeps your part on the ground short, but it is a large scheduled airport and your departure has to fit inside its traffic. That is why we ask for the time you need to be in England and work the departure back from it, rather than fixing a take-off time and hoping the rest lines up.
Can we fly over in the morning and be back the same evening?
Commonly, at about an hour and a half each way. The leg to confirm early is the return rather than the outbound: the airport window, not the aircraft, is usually what ends a late day. Give us both ends when you enquire and we will say straight away whether the shape works.
How many of us can travel, and with how much luggage?
A light / midsize jet typically carries six to nine passengers with luggage over a sector of this length. Send the number of people and a real description of the bags and we will tell you which cabin actually fits them rather than which one nominally does.
What does the westbound leg cost?
Our indicative starting price is EUR 6 800 one way for the whole aircraft, on a light / midsize jet. Your own number turns on the date, on whether an aircraft has to be positioned into Munich to collect you, and on the windows at both ends. Ask us and you will have a written figure against your dates rather than a table.
Is there an empty leg heading for London?
They exist when an aircraft has finished a job at one end and has to get back to the other, and the discount brokers publish on them runs from 50 to 75 percent. Since somebody else's schedule creates them, the way to catch one is to give us a window rather than a fixed date. Look at our current empty legs, or ask us to watch the movements for you.
How late can we decide?
Usually later than people expect, and short notice is a common way this leg is bought. What may not be free at short notice is the exact departure window you want at Munich - the aircraft is the easier half of the problem. Call the operations desk on +357 95 119759, staffed at every hour, and you will be told whether the timing works rather than promised and checked later.
