United Kingdom: private jet rental

Rent a private jet in the UK: London, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Manchester

Would you like to travel to the UK for business or pleasure? AEROAFFAIRES organizes your tailor-made trip by private jet.

The UK is a major player inbusiness aviation. The UK business aviation market confirms its position as a European mainstay: in the first half of 2025, the UK recorded 36,635 departures by private jet, representing 14.1% of European segments and an increase of +0.6% on the previous year.

Travel by private jet to London

London is renowned for its international financial center. Many investors, bankers and traders travel by private jet to the Queen’s country to do business. But London is also Europe’s 3ᵉ most visited city by tourists, with 16 million tourists counted.

14 airports are accessible by private jet around London. We recommend London-Luton and London-City airports. Both airports are perfectly equipped, with top-class private terminals. However, there is one key difference between London-Luton and London-City.

London-City airport is located right in the center of London. This is a considerable advantage, as you can get to the business district in just 15 minutes by car. However, due to its location, the airport is subject to numerous noise restrictions. Aircraft are only allowed to take off and land between 6.30 a.m. and 10.30 p.m. Monday to Friday, 6.30 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturdays and 9 a.m. to 10.30 p.m. on Sundays and public holidays. What’s more, not all aircraft can land on this asphalt runway. Only light aircraft and medium-haul private jets are allowed to land.

London Luton airport is a 1-hour drive from London’s financial center. However, we can arrange helicopter transfers to facilitate your access to the city center. The airport’s position means it can accommodate all types of aircraft at any time of the day or night. What’s more, the cost of landing at London Luton is much lower than that of landing at London City.

Private flights to Glasgow

Every year, Glasgow plays host to numerous private jets filled with golf enthusiasts. This Scottish metropolis is home to some of the world’s most famous golf courses, including Troon, Turnberry and Gleneagles. A trip to Glasgow will also allow you to sample famous single-malt whiskies and discover remarkable Victorian architecture.

Glasgow Airport is open 24 hours a day and has no restrictions. Located just 20 minutes from the city center, you can easily reach the metropolis at any time. Private terminals welcome business travelers and offer top-quality services. What’s more, all types of aircraft can land on the 2,658-meter asphalt runway.

Charter a private jet to Edinburgh

Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland, holds the crown jewels of Scottish power. The city offers two very different architectural styles, with the medieval Old Town on one side and the neoclassical Georgian New Town on the other. In addition, numerous castles and relics of earlier civilizations surround the city. This makes it the most popular destination in the UK behind London.

Edinburgh airport is just 13 kilometers from the city center. It is open 24 hours a day, but for noise reasons, only quiet aircraft are allowed to land and take off between 11pm and 7am. The two asphalt runways are long enough to accommodate all types of aircraft. Finally, there are two business terminals, each offering top-of-the-range services.

Rent a plane cab to Manchester

With its rich industrial heritage, Manchester is a magnet for business leaders. It is the largest city in the North West of England. Manchester is also renowned for its history in world soccer. Several renowned museums trace the city’s history.

Manchester Airport is located 10 kilometers from the city center. It is open 24 hours a day for take-offs and landings of all types of aircraft. Its business terminal has several FBOs, including private terminals for Emirates and BMI, as well as one of three Etihad lounges accessible outside Abu Dhabi. Manchester Airport has a runway length of 3047 meters and can accommodate turboprops, light private jets, medium private jets, long-haul private jets and regional aircraft.

AEROAFFAIRES can help you book your private flight in Germany, whether it’s a cab plane, helicopter, long-haul private jet or commercial aircraft for a group flight.

Trusting AEROAFFAIRES also means protecting the environment. With its SkyCO₂ program, 100% of the CO₂ emissions produced by each business flight are offset by supporting the preservation of forests in South America.
