The following factors play a significant role in determining the final price:
-> Aircraft category: light jet, midsize, heavy jet, etc.
-> Market availability at the time of booking
-> Number of passengers and baggage requirements
-> Flight distance, route and length of stay
-> Departure and return dates: weekends, holidays, or weekdays
-> Length of stay: same-day return VS multi-day trip
-> Preferred departure/arrival times: outside of commercial peak hours
-> Ground handling agent and FBO selection
-> Airport opening hours and slot availability
-> Fuel price differentials between airports
-> Catering preferences: standard or bespoke onboard services
-> Aircraft parking fees during layovers
-> Additional crew or crew rest requirements, for long-haul missions
-> De-icing fees: during winter operations
-> Specific taxes: applicable in some countries
Same-day return flights tend to be more cost-effective, as the operator can hold the aircraft at the destination rather than reposition it. For longer stays, the jet may need to return to base, increasing the total cost.
Private jet prices are dynamic and may increase during periods of high demand:
→ Peak seasons: May to September, Christmas, and school holidays typically see higher prices and aircraft availability is low.
→ Major events: During global gatherings like the Monaco Grand Prix, Cannes Film Festival or World Economic Forum, demand surges and aircraft availability tightens, affecting prices.
Booking in advance or travelling during off-peak times helps secure more competitive rates.
A business aviation flight includes multiple cost components adn when you book a flight with Artheau Aviation, you receive more than just an aircraft:

→ Concierge support pre, during and post-flight
→ Real-time flight monitorin

→ Ground transportation and helicopter transfers
→ Multi-leg route planning and accommodation
Unlike commercial aviation, the concept of a "ticket price" doesn’t apply. You are renting the entire aircraft and its capacity. Naturally, the more spacious or luxurious the jet, the higher the price.
For example, a Citation Mustang (4 seats) is among the most economical choices on the market, while ultra-long-range jets as a Dassault Falcon 6x with spacious, fully equipped cabins represent a premium segment.
Ideal for business meetings or short events, a same-day round trip allows you to depart and return on your terms, without overnight costs. It’s often a more economical option, as the aircraft stays on-site and does not return to base empty.
Private jet rental gives you the freedom to visit multiple destinations in a single journey. Whether you're planning a business tour, a VIP roadshow or a series of events across Europe, we design complex itineraries with precision.
