Private plane charter costs Australia
Private plane charter costs can vary depending on many factors, but in general, the smaller the aircraft, the more affordable the hourly rate. A turboprop charter starts around $2,000 an hour, while a heavy jet charter costs closer to $10,000 an hour.
Private plane charter rates are significantly lower than buying your own private plane (if you fly less than 150 hours per annum) because you don’t have to pay maintenance fees, crew salaries, insurance and so on.
Private chartered flights provide several benefits for passengers including enhanced privacy and security, access to remote destinations, multiple-stops, reduced airport wait times and the ability to travel with pets.
Various factors affect cost of private aircraft charter including:
Flight time and distance
Charter destination
Duration of stay
Aircraft type
Peak and off peak flying times
Ground support required
