Private Jet Charter
Birmingham
Birmingham Airport sits beside the M42 and the NEC, which makes it one of the easiest airports in the country to reach by road from most of the Midlands. For Solihull and Warwickshire it is usually the first choice.
Private jet charter from Birmingham (BHX / EGBB) suits Solihull, Warwickshire, Worcestershire and most of the West Midlands conurbation. Being on the M42, with the M6, M40 and M5 all close, it also works well for passengers coming from further afield than a map suggests.
Most Birmingham enquiries are European: the Balearics and southern Spain in summer, the Alps in winter, and business trips to Paris, Geneva and Munich. The figures below show what those sectors look like, and the category table shows how the aircraft choice changes the number.

Getting to the airport
The airport is at junction 6 of the M42, next to the NEC. Birmingham International railway station is linked to the terminal by the Air-Rail Link, with direct trains to London Euston and Birmingham New Street. Private jet passengers normally use a dedicated handling area rather than the main terminal.
Alternative airports
Coventry (CVT / EGBE) — south-east of Coventry; worth comparing for Warwickshire where the aircraft and runway suit.
East Midlands (EMA / EGNX) — for Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire.
Oxford (OXF / EGTK) — for the southern end of Warwickshire and the Cotswolds; see private jet charter from Oxford.

Common questions
Private jet charter
Birmingham
How much does a private jet from Birmingham to Malaga cost?
The indicative flying charge is £14,500, for about 2 hr 15 min estimated airborne time in a Citation X or similar super-midsize jet at £6,500 per flying hour. Where a light jet suits the passengers and baggage, the equivalent figure is about £9,000. Positioning, airport and handling charges, catering and other costs are added in the quotation.
Is Birmingham good for private jets to the Alps?
Yes. Geneva, Chambéry and the Austrian airports are all within easy range from Birmingham. Winter weekends are the busiest time at the Alpine airports, so book early and keep a little flexibility if you can.
Do I go through the main terminal at Birmingham?
Normally not. Business aviation passengers usually use a separate handling facility. Your quotation confirms where to arrive and how early.
