About European Private Jets
European Private Jets is a private aviation broker with its head office at Larnaca International Airport in Cyprus and offices at the airports of Nice, Geneva and Hamburg. For 14 years we have organised private flights for individuals, families and companies from all over Europe, on routes inside the continent and to the Middle East, Africa, the Americas and Asia.
We do not own aircraft. Each flight is operated by a licensed air operator that holds an Air Operator Certificate (AOC), and through these operators we can offer about 6,500 aircraft, from a turboprop for a short regional hop to an ultra long range jet for a non-stop intercontinental flight. Our job is to find the right aircraft for your trip, compare prices from several operators, prepare the contract and stay with you until landing.
A broker, not an airline
An air operator owns or manages aircraft, employs the crews and is responsible for maintenance and flight safety. A broker works on the client's side: it asks many operators for the same date and route, compares what they offer and books the aircraft that fits the trip best. European Private Jets is a broker, and the name of the operator that will fly you is always stated in the offer and in the contract.
In practice this means:
- you are not limited to the aircraft of one company, so the choice of models, departure times and prices is much wider;
- we can propose an aircraft that is already near your departure airport, which reduces positioning costs;
- when a trip involves two operators, a helicopter leg and a car, you still deal with one manager;
- the operator remains responsible for the flight itself, and we check its documents before we propose an aircraft.
The air broker page explains the difference between a broker and an operator in more detail.
How we work
A typical request goes through four stages. Requests are accepted and processed 24/7, including weekends and public holidays.
- Request. You send the route, date, time, number of passengers and baggage through the form, by phone, WhatsApp or e-mail. Mention any special needs at this stage: a dog in the cabin, a child seat, a stretcher, skis or golf bags.
- Options. Your manager checks the airports and their opening hours, asks the operators and sends you 4 to 7 options in different classes and price ranges. Each option shows the operator, the aircraft model, cabin photos and the price for the whole aircraft, with extras listed separately.
- Contract. Once you choose an aircraft, we prepare the charter contract with the operator. It states the aircraft, the times, the services included and the cancellation terms. After signing and payment the flight is confirmed.
- Flight. Before departure you receive the flight details: terminal address, crew contacts and car times. Your manager stays reachable until you land and handles any change of time or passengers with the operator.
For an urgent departure inside Europe an aircraft can take off about 4 hours after the request is confirmed, if a suitable aircraft and crew are available nearby.

What we arrange
Most of our work is private jet charter, but the same team handles a number of related services:
On the ground we book cars with a driver, catering, hotels, villas and yachts, and tickets for events. The full list is on the services page.
Safety: who operates your flight
We work only with commercial operators that hold a valid AOC issued by the civil aviation authority of their country. Within the EU these operators follow EASA rules for commercial air transport and are regularly audited by their national authority. Before we propose an aircraft, we check:
- that the operator's AOC is valid and covers the aircraft type offered;
- the operator's insurance for passengers, baggage and third parties;
- the aircraft model, its cabin layout and its suitability for the airports on the route, for example short runways or steep approaches;
- for medical flights and flights with animals, the specific requirements of the operator and of the destination country.
We do not arrange flights on privately owned aircraft that have no commercial licence, and we do not arrange flights into airspace that is closed to civil aviation. In such cases we suggest the nearest open airport and the onward journey by road or rail.

- Travel agencies and tour operators booking flights for their own clients. Conditions are on the cooperation with travel agencies page.
- Personal and executive assistants who need one contact for the flight, the car and the hotel. See cooperation with assistants.
- Sports teams travelling to matches and training camps with their staff and equipment. See private flights for athletes.

Contracts, payment and confidentiality
Every flight is covered by a written contract with the operator, which we prepare as broker. You can sign it remotely, without visiting an office. Payment terms are flexible:

Companies receive invoices and the documents their accounts department needs. Details are on the payment page and in our terms and conditions.
Passenger names, routes and travel dates are passed only to those who need them for the flight: the operator, the handling agents at the airports and, where the law requires it, the border authorities. How we process personal data is set out in the privacy policy.
