Private Jet Charter
Luton
London Luton is one of the UK's busiest business aviation airports, with dedicated private jet terminals run by handling companies beside the commercial airport. For north London and the M1 corridor it is usually the first airport to consider.
Private jet hire from Luton (LTN / EGGW) suits north London, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Milton Keynes and Buckinghamshire. The airport sits by junction 10 of the M1, so the drive from Hampstead, St Albans or Harpenden is straightforward outside the rush hour.
Luton's runway suits everything from light jets to long-range aircraft, which makes it a common departure for the United States and the Middle East as well as Europe. Business aviation uses separate terminals operated by handling companies, so you are not routed through the main passenger building.
