Vancouver
Private Jet Charter

The primary airport for private jet charters to Vancouver is Vancouver International Airport (YVR/CYVR), located about 8 miles south of downtown with dedicated general aviation/VIP terminals, excellent FBO services (like ExecuJet, Jet Aviation, and Signature Flight Support), full customs/immigration facilities for international arrivals, and support for all jet types. For a quieter alternative with less congestion, Abbotsford International Airport (YXX/CYXX) is about 40 miles east and popular for some private/business aviation. Stratos Jets private flight advisors can recommend the best airport based on your itinerary, group size, aircraft type, and need for efficient customs clearance.

Costs vary based on aircraft type, flight distance, passenger count, and amenities, but hourly rates for long-haul international routes often range from $5,000-$15,000+ (higher for ultra-long-range heavy jets). For example, one-way from Los Angeles, New York, or Dubai might start around $100,000-$250,000+ depending on the jet. Shorter regional flights within North America are more affordable.

Popular routes include long-haul international flights from major hubs like Los Angeles, New York (Teterboro), London, Dubai, Tokyo, and regional connections from other Canadian or U.S. cities (e.g., Seattle, Calgary, Toronto).
