EDI BHD

Private jet charter from Edinburgh to Belfast

The route from Edinburgh (EDI) to Belfast (BHD) covers approximately 217 km, about 0h 52m nonstop by private jet.

We did not observe a regular nonstop pattern between Edinburgh and Belfast over the last 12 months, so this sector is normally flown ad hoc. Departure-end activity is solid though: 2,019 business aircraft movements were tracked at Edinburgh, around 168 a month.

Aircraft based at or passing through Edinburgh are led by the Cessna Citation Excel and the Bombardier Global Express, with an average build year of 2011 — that is the pool a charter for this route is most likely to come from.

At the arrival end, Belfast recorded 327 tracked movements over the same period (about 27 a month), most often the Cessna Citation Excel.

Departures from Edinburgh skew to the weekend (46% of movements fall Friday to Sunday), so mid-week slots on this route are usually easier to fill and cheaper to position.

The smallest cabin that covers 217 km without a fuel stop is the very light jet at $1,500-4,500 an hour, and the type most often quoted here is the Bombardier Challenger 350. How the hourly rate turns into a total is set out in the private jet cost guide, and if the dates are loose it is worth checking empty leg flights on this direction first.
