Twelve hours non-stop from London to Haneda in the longest-range cabins, landing twenty minutes from Marunouchi. Slots at Haneda are requested weeks ahead, so this is a route we plan early.

London to Tokyo is 5,950 miles and needs the longest-range cabins to fly it in one leg: the Gulfstream G650ER, the Global 7500 and the Falcon 8X make Haneda in about twelve hours, routing over Scandinavia and Siberia. A heavy jet such as the Legacy 650 flies it with one stop, usually in the Gulf or at Novosibirsk depending on routing, and lands about two hours later.
Tokyo is nine hours ahead of London in winter, so an evening departure lands the following afternoon. Haneda's business-jet terminal is twenty minutes from Marunouchi and Roppongi, but its slots are rationed and released in advance, and overnight parking is capped, so the aircraft often positions to Narita after dropping you.
Passport and crew details go to the Japanese authorities in advance, so we ask for them early and handle the slot requests at both airports.
Prices below are indicative one-way figures for the whole aircraft, not per seat. They cover the flight, crew, fuel and overflight permits; parking in Tokyo, repositioning and handling are quoted separately.
Because Haneda caps overnight parking, most clients keep the aircraft at Narita or send it on. We price the options and confirm the figure in writing.
| Cabin | Typical aircraft | Seats | Flight time | One way from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Heavy jet | Legacy 650, Falcon 900LX, Gulfstream G450 | 12 to 14 | 14h with a fuel stop | $150,000 |
| Ultra-long-range jet | Global 7500, Gulfstream G650ER, Falcon 8X | 13 to 16 | 12h non-stop | $195,000 |
| VIP airliner | Boeing Business Jet, Airbus ACJ319neo | 18 to 40 | 12h 30m non-stop | $310,000 |
Figures in US dollars, one way, indicative. Bank transfer in any major currency; crypto also accepted.
Heavy jets refuel once, adding about two hours. Routing and permits depend on the airspace open at the time of travel.
London has more private airports than any other city in Europe. The choice comes down to where you start, how late you want to leave, and how large the aircraft is.
Europe's purpose-built business airport. Operating hours 7 am to 10 pm, with limits on weekend movements, so a late-night flight means Luton or Stansted.
Open around the clock and handles every cabin size up to VIP airliners. The workhorse for overnight flights.
Six-minute helicopter transfer to Battersea. Open 6.30 am to 11 pm on weekdays, 8 am to 10 pm at weekends.
Open around the clock with a long runway, so the natural home for Boeing Business Jets and Airbus Corporate Jets.
Tokyo has two airports for private flights. Haneda is twenty minutes from the centre but rations its business-jet slots, so they are requested weeks ahead. Narita is an hour further out with easier slots and parking.
Flying private to Tokyo from anywhere: airports, aircraft and prices
The closest runway to the city with a dedicated business-jet terminal. Slots are limited and released in advance, and overnight parking is capped, so the aircraft often positions to Narita.
Easier slots and parking than Haneda and full customs. Operations from 6 am to midnight.
Non-stop London to Tokyo is the preserve of the longest-range cabins: the Gulfstream G650 in our fleet in its ER form, the Global 7500 and the Falcon 8X. A heavy jet flies the route with a single stop for a lower price. For large parties, a Boeing Business Jet with auxiliary tanks does it non-stop from Stansted.
Aircraft pages for this route: Bombardier Global 6500, Dassault Falcon 8X, Gulfstream G650, Gulfstream G700, Bombardier Global 7500, Airbus Corporate Jets, Boeing Business Jets, Airbus ACJ319neo, Airbus ACJ350, Boeing BBJ 737 MAX 7, Boeing BBJ 787-8.
Thirteen to sixteen seats, a bedroom and a lower cabin altitude that makes a twelve-hour flight tolerable. The Gulfstream G650 flies London to Haneda non-stop.
See the Gulfstream G650Twelve to fourteen seats. The Legacy 650 in our fleet stops once and lands about two hours behind the non-stop cabins at a lower price.
See the Legacy 650Eighteen seats and above in the Boeing Business Jet or Airbus Corporate Jet, non-stop from Stansted.
See the whole fleetTokyo's private airports are slot-controlled all year, and on these dates Haneda's business-jet slots are allocated a month or more ahead.
The return leaves from Haneda or Narita and lands at whichever London airport suits you. Westbound the flight is a little longer against the wind, about twelve and a half hours non-stop, and the time difference means an afternoon departure from Tokyo lands in London the same evening.
Haneda's departure slots are the scarce resource, particularly in cherry-blossom season and Golden Week, so we secure the return slot at the moment we book the outbound and keep Narita as the fallback.
Indicative one-way prices for the whole aircraft start at about $150,000 in a heavy jet; about $195,000 in a ultra-long-range jet; about $310,000 in a vip airliner. Repositioning, overnight parking and handling are quoted separately once we know your dates, and a return with the aircraft waiting is usually priced well below two one-way flights.
About 12 hours flight time, depending on the aircraft, the winds and the airports at each end. Every cabin class listed flies it without a stop.
From London: Farnborough, London Luton, Biggin Hill and London Stansted. Into Tokyo: Tokyo Haneda and Tokyo Narita. Each is described above with its drive time and the operators that handle private flights there.
Immigration and customs are cleared in the business-jet terminal at Haneda or Narita. Most nationalities enter visa-free for up to ninety days; passport and crew details go to the authorities in advance, so we ask for them early.
Japan has strict animal quarantine rules. A dog or cat needs a microchip, two rabies vaccinations, a blood test and advance notification at least forty days before arrival; without it, quarantine applies. Tell us early.
