Rates & routesHow much does a private jet in Ethiopia cost?
The cost of a private jet to Ethiopia is influenced by the aircraft category, airport specifics (slots, FBO, taxes), distance, and seasonality. As a guide, a light jet starts from €4,800 per hour, a midsize jet from €6,000 per hour, and a heavy jet from €11,400 per hour.
Prices can rise significantly in Ethiopia during special events such as the Timkat festival, the Meskel festival, or during the peak tourist season in Lalibela and Gondar. These periods generate high demand at Bole International Airport.
Only a complimentary, personalised quote, tailored to your precise needs, will determine the exact cost of your private jet flight to Ethiopia.

Available Empty Legs
Up to -75%Take advantage of jet repositioning on this route at reduced rates. Same service, date flexibility required.
Empty legs (repositioning flights) offer a unique opportunity to fly by private jet at reduced prices. When an aircraft needs to reposition after dropping off passengers, this empty flight is offered at preferential rates of up to 75% off the standard price. Contrary to popular belief, an affordable private jet does exist: empty legs allow you to get a private jet quote well below standard rates. These private jet deals are ideal for flexible travellers seeking a discounted private flight. The principle is simple: you enjoy the same premium service (catering, transfers, concierge) but at a reduced price because the aircraft has to make this journey anyway. To take advantage of these empty leg offers, sign up for alerts and receive availability in real time. Each empty leg is a chance to fly by jet at a reduced rate — dates are fixed but the savings are substantial. Browse all available empty legs on our real-time search engine, or request your free quote to find out about the next empty legs on this route.
AIRPORT & PRIVATE SERVICES

Frequently asked questions
Booking, payment, on board, formalities — answers to the most common questions about private jet travel with Private Jets Connect.
01
How do I book and pay for my private jet flight with PJC?
Initial contact, a bespoke offer, contract, payment. And always in direct contact with your private advisor, at every step.
02
What is the cancellation policy?
It depends on the type of flight and how far in advance you cancel: an early cancellation limits fees, while a last-minute one generates more. The exact policy is stated on each quote.
03
How quickly can I get a quote?
Your personalised quote is sent within 24 hours by your dedicated advisor. For complex requests (multi-leg, large groups), allow slightly longer.
04
What happens if the weather doesn't allow the flight?
Safety always comes first. In poor conditions, we offer a postponement, a diversion to a nearby airport or an alternative solution. No flight is maintained if conditions are not safe.
05
Can I eat on board?
Yes. A catering service is available on request, from a simple snack to a gourmet meal by a fine caterer. Tell us your preferences and dietary restrictions when booking.
06
Can I smoke on board?
It depends on the aircraft and the agreement of the crew and owner. Some jets allow cigarettes or cigars: mention it when booking so we select a suitable aircraft.
07
What documents do I need to fly in Ethiopia?
A valid ID is sufficient for domestic and regional flights. For international flights, a valid passport — and a visa where applicable — is required. We guide you according to your itinerary.
08
Do you own the aircraft?
No. PJC is a broker: we don’t own the aircraft but give access to a global fleet of over 5,000 jets operated by certified companies. You get the best aircraft at the best price for each mission.
09
Can I travel with my pets?
Yes, it’s one of the great advantages of private jets: your pets travel in the cabin, with you. Tell us the species and number when booking so we can prepare the flight.
