London private jet airports

Farnborough (FAB / EGLF) — purpose-built for business aviation, no commercial traffic, and the most-used London departure point for private jet charter. Best from west and south-west London, Surrey and the Thames Valley.

Biggin Hill (BQH / EGKB) — south-east London and Kent. Often the fastest door-to-door option from the City and Canary Wharf despite looking further out on a map.

Luton (LTN / EGGW) — the largest business aviation volume in the London area with several FBOs. Strong from north London, Hertfordshire and the M1 corridor.

Stansted (STN / EGSS) — long runway and good handling, useful for heavier aircraft and long-haul departures. Best from north-east London and Essex.

Transatlantic from London. Farnborough, Luton and Stansted all handle long-range departures to the United States. The London to New York private jet page sets out the flight time, which aircraft can make the crossing non-stop and an indicative cost. Coming the other way, see New York to London private jet.

Oxford Kidlington (OXF / EGTK) — a genuine alternative for Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds, and often overlooked.
