Private Jet Charter Rotterdam to London

Rotterdam to London: 313 km and roughly 0 h 43 min from Rotterdam The Hague to Biggin Hill. The calculator was run for the eastbound direction, so we print the same time as the direct leg: 41 minutes for a Citation XLS and 43 for a Citation CJ3, calculated rather than measured. The whole aircraft one way starts from €4 200, indicative. Ring +357 95 119759 at any hour, or use the form for a written offer within 30 minutes.

From the Dutch coast to the London fields in well under an hour: Biggin Hill, London City or Farnborough.

The calculator figures are for Biggin Hill to Rotterdam, so on this page the 0 h 43 min is the same time as the direct leg, applied to the return. Westbound, the prevailing wind is usually against you, and the flight can be a few minutes longer. The planned time for your date comes with the quotation.

What it costs

From €4 200 one way. Indicative starting price for this route, rounded down. The date, the aircraft actually available and airport fees move it — tell us your dates and we confirm within 30 minutes.

The price depends on which suitable aircraft are free near Rotterdam on your date; the earlier we know the date, the wider the choice.

Flying back the same evening? Ask for the round trip as one quotation: a waiting aircraft is often cheaper than two separate one-way flights.

Indicative only: the written quotation for your dates is the price we stand behind. Call +357 95 119759, 24/7.

Choosing the London arrival

On a sector this short the drive at the London end can take longer than the flight. Biggin Hill and London City sit on the eastern side of the capital; Farnborough is on the south-west side, an hour or more from the City in traffic.

Give us the address you are heading to and the time you need to be there; we choose the field from that, and the car meets you at the aircraft.

Questions we get about this route

How long does Rotterdam to London take by private jet?
Roughly 43 minutes from Rotterdam The Hague to Biggin Hill. The Aviapages calculator was run for the eastbound direction, 41 minutes for a Citation XLS and 43 for a Citation CJ3; flying west, the wind can add a few minutes.
How much is a private jet from Rotterdam to London?
From EUR 4,200 one way for the whole aircraft, as an indicative starting price. A larger cabin or a late departure raise the real offer; the earlier we know the date, the more suitable aircraft are free near Rotterdam.
Can I land at London City?
Yes, if the aircraft is certified for its steep approach. We confirm that before quoting; otherwise Biggin Hill is the nearest alternative on the eastern side of London.
Can I fly to London and back in a day?
Yes. The aircraft can wait at the London field while you work, and we quote the day as a whole. Tell us the latest time you need to be back in Rotterdam.
Any border formalities?
Yes. Leaving the Schengen area for the United Kingdom is a full border crossing in each direction. Passports are checked and the arrival is notified in advance; depending on nationality, a visa or electronic travel authorisation for the UK may be needed.
