Why Teams Choose Private

The Competitive Edge of Private Aviation

Every hour counts in elite sport. Private aviation eliminates the unpredictability of commercial travel and lets athletes arrive at peak condition.

No Public Terminals

Avoid crowds, autograph hunters and disruptions. Use private FBOs for discreet, secure boarding in minutes.

Custom Schedules

Depart after the final whistle, arrive before the warm-up. Flights run on your schedule, not the airline's.

Equipment Transport

Bikes, golf bags, medical equipment, oversized luggage — all handled without restrictions or surcharges.

Athlete Nutrition Catering

Work with your nutritionist to design in-flight meals that match your team's dietary protocols.

Privacy & Confidentiality

No media, no cameras, no leaks. Your tactical discussions and team dynamics stay private.

Recovery-Optimised Cabins

Wide seats that recline flat for recovery sleep, low cabin altitude, and a calm environment.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Can we transport sports equipment on a private charter?

Yes. Private jets have no restrictions on sports equipment beyond physical space. We carefully plan cargo holds for bicycles, golf bags, medical kit, and oversized items. For very large teams, we can arrange dedicated cargo flights or airliner charters with dedicated hold space.

How quickly can you arrange a charter for a sports team?

For planned fixtures, we recommend booking 2–4 weeks in advance to secure the best aircraft. For emergency relocations or late fixture changes, our team can arrange a jet within 4–6 hours in most European markets.

Do you provide NDA agreements for team confidentiality?

Absolutely. All our crew, ground handlers and partner service providers sign strict NDAs. We can also provide a full confidentiality protocol for sensitive movements — transfers during transfer windows, medical trips, or tactical preparation camps.

Can the catering be customised to athlete nutrition plans?

Yes. We work with your club nutritionist or chef to design every meal served on board. We can accommodate high-protein recovery diets, specific allergies, religious dietary requirements, and individual player preferences.

What is the cost of chartering a private jet for a sports team?

Cost depends on team size, aircraft type, route and services included. A midsize jet for 6 passengers on a European route typically starts from €8,000–€15,000. A heavy jet for 14 players London–Madrid runs approximately €25,000–€40,000. Contact us for a precise quote.

Can you fly late after a match?

Yes — night departures are common. We validate crew duty, airport hours and slot availability before confirming.

Do you move bikes, sticks or golf bags?

Yes. Oversized sports equipment is planned into payload and hold configuration from day one.

Can media travel with the team?

Often yes on a second aircraft or partitioned cabin plan — we keep athlete recovery and media workflows separate when needed.
