A day trip, door to door
London to Paris takes about an hour in the air. On a route this short, the airports you use and the drive at each end matter as much as the flight.
It's busy all year with business travel, and peaks around Paris Fashion Weeks, major trade fairs and sporting events, when slots and aircraft fill quickly.
Small jets are usually all you need. A same-day return is common, with the aircraft waiting for you at Le Bourget.
Where you leave from, and where you land
We compare the whole journey, door to door. The operator confirms each airport for your aircraft and times.
London
Farnborough
Business aviation only. Often the natural choice for west London, Surrey and the Thames Valley.
Biggin Hill
Business aviation south-east of the city, well placed for Kent, south London and the City.
Luton
Large private-aviation operation to the north, practical for north London and Hertfordshire.
Paris
Paris Le Bourget
Europe's best-known business aviation airport, used almost entirely by private flights. Typically under an hour by road to central Paris, depending on traffic.
Paris Orly
South of the city. Sometimes used, but busier with airline traffic.
Beauvais
North of Paris. Occasionally an alternative for specific trips.
Three ways to fly it
Examples of the sizes that suit this route. The right choice depends on your group, your luggage and how much space you want. We confirm the exact aircraft with the operator.
On a short route a smaller jet usually makes sense. The operator confirms your passengers and luggage will fit before we put an option forward.
What shapes the price
We don't publish prices for this route, because a figure on a web page rarely matches a real trip.
- Aircraft size and the flying time.
- Waiting time if the aircraft and crew wait for a same-day return.
- Positioning: whether the aircraft has to fly empty to collect you or return afterwards.
- Airport and handling fees at both ends.
- Dates and demand: fashion weeks and major events cost more.
