Private Jet Rental Cost in Mexico

How Much is the Cost to Rent a Private Jet to Mexico?

The cost to charter a private flight to/from Mexico is determined by the type of aircraft, the length of the flight, scheduling, fuel prices, operational fees, and variety of additional factors ranging from taxes and de-icing to catering and Wi-Fi charges.

The price to book private jet to Mexico changes daily in the on-demand charter market, but you can expect to pay an average hourly rate of $2,000 to $3,000 for turboprops; $5,500 to $6,500 for light jets; $6,500 to $8,000 for midsize and super midsize jets; and $10,000 to $15,000 and up for long range jets.

The most cost-effective planes for every trip will be different, and our brokers provide access to every private plane available for your flight. This includes aircraft based in The United States, Canada, Europe, Asia, and everywhere around the globe.

How do Hourly Charter Rates factor into Renting a Private Jet?

The hourly charter rate of a private jet is multiplied by the flight time, but does not cover the entire cost to charter the aircraft.

The hourly rate of a plane only covers access to rent the aircraft, while things like fuel, taxes, and other operational fees and charges such as catering or Wi-Fi usage are added to the rental price to complete the entire charter cost.

For example, if you’re booking a light jet that has an hourly rate of $4,000, and want to perform a 1 and a half hour flight, the rental portion of the price would account for $6,000.

When adding the fuel costs, taxes, operational fees such as pilots, landing fees, ground handling and FBO; as well as any additional services such as catering or internet, the total charter cost may range between $10,000 to $15,000, depending on routing and passenger/baggage totals.

Cost to Rent a Piston or Turboprop in Mexico

Single and twin-engine piston aircraft are ideal for short flights around Mexico and Central America. Pistons offer the most cost-effective rates in exchange for slower speeds and lack amenities such as unpressurized cabins and lavatories, while turboprops offer a more a comfortable ride and a quieter cabin experience

The cost to charter a single or twin-engine piston starts at around $1,500 an hour. Although passenger totals are limited to 4-6 passengers, piston aircraft provide access to shorter runways to reach remote destinations across Mexico.

Executive turboprops available for charter come in single or twin-engine configurations and look similar to piston aircraft with one major difference – the engine. Turboprops are powered by a jet engine, offering increased levels of speed, reliability, and fuel efficiency.

Turboprops are faster than piston aircraft, offer larger, more comfortable cabins, and provide a range of between 1,000 and 2,500 miles. They also carry slightly higher rates, with the cost to rent a turboprop typically ranging from $2,000 to $3,000 per hour.

Cost to Rent a Light Jet in Mexico

Light jets are the ideal category for individuals and smaller groups booking a private flight, with higher levels of performance and additional cabin amenities compared to light aircraft and turboprops, and better rates than larger business jets.

The cost to charter a light jet ranges between $2,500 and $5,000 an hour, depending on the type of light jet – the category contains 3 types of aircraft: very light jets (also known as entry-level), light jets, and super light jets.

Very Light Jets (VLJ) are the smallest private jets available, with seating for up to 4 passengers, while super light jets offer additional room and longer range than standard light jets, with some models able to cover up to 1,800 nautical miles.

The cost to charter a private flight from Puerto Vallarta (MMPR) to Los Cabos (MMSD) in a light jet with 7 passengers starts at $11,250, while a private flight from Toluca (MMTO) to Veracruz (MMVR) starts at around $9,500.

A light jet from Houston to Toluca (MMTO) starts at around $22,000. The price of a light jet with 7 passengers going from Miami to Cancun (MMUN) or Cozumel (MMCZ) starts at $20,000.

Cost to Rent a Midsize Jet in Mexico

For executive groups, families and VIP travelers looking for more room or to cover more distance, midsize and super midsize jets are the best option.

Midsize jets provide enough range to travel across most areas of Mexico with larger, more luxurious cabins with several models in this category offering standing room.

The average hourly charter rate for midsize and super midsize jets range between $4,500 and $9,000 per hour, with some of the newer, most advanced super midsize jets carrying premium costs due to their capabilities and popularity.

The cost to charter a super midsize jet from New York City to Cancun (MMUN), Cozumel (MMCZ), or Merida (MMMD) starts at $45,000 in a Citation X, one of the fastest business jets in the world.

Cost to Rent a Heavy or Long Range Jet in Mexico

Heavy and Long Range Jets offer the highest levels of comfort and range, able to carry large groups of passengers overseas or around the world.

The cabins in this category are much wider and taller, with 6-feet of standing room or more. Their interiors resemble a small luxury apartment, with a variety of seating arrangements including captains chairs, divans, and even beds for overnight travel. Many large jets offer conference rooms for executives to conduct their business mid-flight.

The cost to charter a private flight on newer, larger jets in this category can quickly climb into the 6 figures, with rates starting at around $8,000-$15,000 an hour and some models as high as $20,000 or more per hour.

Large cabin, long range jets offer the highest range with seating for up to 18 passengers, although higher passenger totals in some models may reduce the potential range.

The cost to charter a long-range jet such as a Gulfstream V or Bombardier Global 6000 from Toluca (MMTO) to Geneva (LSGG) starts at around $150,000.
