Estimated charter rates: light jets from EUR 4,500/hr, heavy jets from EUR 9,000/hr.
Transworld Jets Insider Tip
For private jet travel, Paris Le Bourget is far superior to CDG - dedicated private aviation, no commercial traffic, faster handling. CDG should only be used when Le Bourget is full or when operating a VIP airliner that requires a longer runway. During Paris Fashion Week (February and September), Le Bourget fills up 6+ weeks ahead.
