What's Included in a Private Jet Charter Quote

A private jet charter quote from Bangkok covers the base aircraft cost for the duration of the flight, calculated at an hourly rate from the moment the aircraft departs to the moment it arrives at the destination. The following items are standard inclusions in every quote we issue.

Included in the base quote:

• Flight crew - Captain and First Officer, fully licensed and current on type
• Standard in-flight catering - water, soft drinks, light snacks, and beer or wine for regional flights
• Basic aircraft insurance for the duration of the mission
• Ground handling coordination at the departure airport

Quoted separately for each mission:

• Fuel surcharge - calculated at the time of booking based on current Jet A-1 market prices; quoted as a separate line item and subject to change between inquiry and confirmation
• Landing and handling fees at destination airports - typically $2,000 to $6,000 per airport movement at Bangkok's major terminals; higher at specialist airports such as Koh Samui (USM)
• Overflight permits - required for every sovereign airspace traversed on international routes; costs vary by country and route complexity
• Crew accommodation - for multi-day missions or long-haul routes where mandatory crew rest applies, hotel and per diem costs are billed at cost
• Premium catering - bespoke meal requests, specific wines, or special dietary arrangements are arranged and billed separately
• Ground transportation at origin and destination

On pricing transparency: Every quote issued includes an itemised breakdown of base aircraft cost and additional charges. Because fuel prices and handling fees fluctuate, all quotes are valid for 48 hours from the time of issue. Clients are advised to confirm promptly to lock in the quoted rate.

For domestic flights within Thailand, a 7% VAT applies to the total invoice. International departures from Thailand are zero-rated for VAT purposes.

Booking Lead Time for Private Jet Charter from Bangkok

Lead times for private jet charter from Bangkok vary by destination and the complexity of permits required for each route. The following guidelines reflect standard industry practice for departures from Suvarnabhumi (BKK) and Don Mueang (DMK).

Domestic Thailand - flights within Thailand, such as Bangkok to Phuket, Chiang Mai, or Koh Samui, can typically be arranged with 24 to 48 hours of notice. In cases where aircraft and crew are already positioned at the departure airport, same-day departures with as little as 4 to 8 hours of notice are possible, subject to availability.

Regional Asia (ASEAN) - flights to Singapore, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, and neighbouring ASEAN countries require a minimum of 3 to 5 business days to allow for landing permit approvals. Indonesia typically requires 4 days, and permit processing times may extend during public holidays in the destination country.

India and China - both countries maintain more demanding aviation permit requirements. India requires a minimum of 7 days for international permit vetting, while China generally requires 3 working days under standard conditions, with longer lead times during peak travel periods such as Golden Week or Chinese New Year.

Intercontinental routes - missions to Europe, the Americas, Australia, and the Middle East require 2 to 4 weeks of planning time. These flights involve multiple overflight permits across several sovereign airspaces, mandatory crew rest scheduling, and slot coordination at destination airports. During peak seasons such as Songkran and the year-end holidays, availability for Ultra Long Range aircraft from Bangkok should be confirmed as early as possible.

Payment Policy for Aviation Bookings

Private jet charter bookings are settled after quote approval. Bank Transfer via SWIFT is the standard payment method and is recommended for all aviation bookings. Credit card payment is also available, though a processing fee may apply depending on the transaction amount and currency. You may also select Decide Later at the quote stage and confirm your preferred payment method once the aircraft options have been reviewed.

Payment structure: For standard bookings with sufficient lead time, payment is required in full prior to departure. The operations team will issue a proforma invoice detailing the base aircraft cost and all separately quoted charges - fuel surcharge, landing and handling fees, overflight permits, and crew accommodation where applicable - before payment is requested.

For urgent bookings with less than 24 hours of notice, 100% upfront payment is required at the time of confirmation. Aircraft availability cannot be held without confirmed payment for time-critical departures.

Currencies accepted: Quotes are issued in USD as the standard currency for international aviation. Payment is accepted in USD, THB, EUR, GBP, SGD, JPY, HKD, AUD, and CHF. The applicable exchange rate is confirmed at the time of invoice.
