How much does it cost to hire a private jet in SA?

A flight on an 8-seater jet from Johannesburg to Cape Town, for example, could cost R70,000 when booked through a private jet charter company. However, the quoted price is for the whole aircraft so, it becomes cheaper per person depending on how many passengers you have.

How to book your own PJ in South Africa

Companies differ when it comes to service, however, trips are tailored to meet the individual or group’s needs.

The type of aircraft will depend on the number of passengers, the route, and the itinerary.

Bertasso advised that domestic travellers need to alert companies a few hours in advance to mobilize the crew and get the aircraft ready.

For international flights, travellers need to provide at least 48 hours’ notice for the company to secure overflight and landing rights in the other country.

The cost in PJ in South Africa

Rates for private charters vary according to the size of aircraft and distance. The size of the airport, catering, and overflight clearance for international flights also play a vital role in the cost of the flight.

“Pricing varies and depends on the aircraft type,“ Bertasso said.

“Entry-level aircraft like the Pilatus PC12 start around R20 000 per hour. As ExecuJet manages and operates aircraft on behalf of aircraft owners, the owner sets the base selling rate.

Each aircraft has daily demurrage, which is the minimum number of kilometres or hours that will be levied by the aircraft owner per day. These are some of the factors that impact the cost of chartering aircraft.”
