New York to the Gulf in one leg

New York to Dubai is 6,840 miles, which only the longest-range cabins fly non-stop: the Gulfstream G650ER, the Global 7500 and the Falcon 8X make it in about twelve and a half hours. A Global 6000 or a heavy jet such as the Legacy 650 stops in Europe, usually at Shannon or Luton, and lands about two hours later.

Dubai is nine hours ahead of New York in winter, so an evening departure from Teterboro lands late the following afternoon. Al Maktoum's business-aviation terminal clears immigration in the lounge and is forty minutes from Downtown; Dubai International is closer but slot-constrained.

Teterboro caps aircraft at 100,000 lb, so VIP airliners leave from JFK or Newark. Passport and crew details go to the handler in advance, and we arrange the Gulf overflight permits with the operator.

Which New York airport to leave from is set out in our guide to the private jet airports in New York: FBOs, customs and curfews, side by side.

Prices below are indicative one-way figures for the whole aircraft, not per seat. They cover the flight, crew, fuel, permits and any fuel stop; parking in Dubai, repositioning and handling are quoted separately.

A return with the aircraft waiting in Dubai is usually priced well below two one-way flights. Tell us your dates and we confirm the figure in writing.

Departure airports in New York

Teterboro handles most of New York's private departures, but it caps aircraft weight and closes to noisy movements overnight, so the largest cabins and some late flights go from Westchester, Newark or JFK.

Arrival airports in Dubai

Dubai has two airports of its own and a third next door in Sharjah. Al Maktoum carries most private traffic these days; Dubai International puts you closer to Downtown and DIFC at a higher fee and with tighter slots.

Aircraft that fly it non-stop

Non-stop New York to Dubai is the preserve of the longest-range cabins: the Gulfstream G650 in its ER form, the Global 7500 and the Falcon 8X. The Global 6000 and the heavy jets fly the route with a single stop in Europe for a lower price. For large parties, a widebody BBJ 787 or ACJ350 does it non-stop from JFK; a 737-based BBJ or an ACJ319neo manages it only with a light load.

When Dubai fills up

Dubai's season runs from November to April, and on these dates the aircraft based in the Gulf are spoken for early. A week or two of notice keeps the choice of cabin open.

  1. December to January Christmas, New Year and the winter season The heaviest fortnight of the year for flights into Dubai. Book the return with the outbound; parking at Al Maktoum runs short.
  2. November Dubai Airshow and the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix The Airshow in odd years fills Al Maktoum's ramp; the Grand Prix weekend pulls aircraft to Abu Dhabi and Dubai together.
  3. March Dubai World Cup Race week at Meydan brings the racing world in on private aircraft. Slots at Dubai International tighten first.
  4. April Art Dubai and the end of season Collectors and galleries arrive in the same week; a quieter time for the airports than the winter peak.
  5. Eid holidays Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha Dates move each year. Regional traffic surges in both directions and Gulf-based aircraft are hard to source.
  6. October GITEX and the start of the season The first busy week after summer. Corporate demand peaks mid-week.

Dubai to New York

The return leaves from Al Maktoum, Dubai International or Sharjah and lands at Teterboro, Westchester, JFK or Newark. Westbound into the headwind allow about thirteen and a half hours non-stop; a mid-morning departure from Dubai lands in New York mid-afternoon the same day.

During the winter season and the Airshow, Dubai's departure slots and parking are the scarce resources, and Teterboro's arrival slots tighten in UN week and over Thanksgiving, so we secure both ends when we book the outbound.

How we arrange this charter

We do not own a fleet. Each New York to Dubai flight is chartered for your trip from an operator on our platform. This is how we choose it, price it and check it, and what you agree to when you book.

01

How we source the operator

We source through our platform, a global network of operators, and every operator is verified on its safety accreditations before it can join. For your date we look for aircraft that can fly Teterboro to Al Maktoum International, or the airports you prefer, and match them to the passengers, the luggage and the times you send. On this route that is anything from an ultra-long-range jet to a VIP airliner, as in the price table above.

02

How the quote is built

You receive a short list of aircraft, each priced for the whole aircraft on your dates and from your airports, with our margin included. A quote holds for 24 hours from when we send it, because aircraft positions and permits change quickly. Costs added later are only those the flight turns out to need: de-icing if the route or the weather calls for it, catering you add, or extra cleaning when a pet flies.

03

What we check before you book

Before an aircraft is offered, its operator confirms that your luggage fits the hold, and we agree the airports and the timings with them. The cabin is chosen for the passengers' comfort, not just the seat count. Catering is agreed a few days before the flight and cars are timed to the aircraft at both ends.

04

Payment and cancellation

You pay by bank transfer or crypto. A deposit may be needed, usually 20%, and the full cost is due at least 48 hours before the flight, or at the latest three hours before departure for a flight the same day. Cancelling within 48 hours of the flight usually makes the whole cost payable. Terms vary with the operator and the flight, and you receive them in full before you sign; nothing is booked until you do.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a private jet from New York to Dubai cost?

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.

How long is the flight?

About 12 and a half hours flight time for the cabins shown on this page, depending on the aircraft, the winds and the airports at each end. Every cabin class listed flies it without a stop.

Which airports can I use?

From New York: Teterboro, Westchester County, John F. Kennedy International and Newark Liberty. Into Dubai: Al Maktoum International, Dubai International and Sharjah International. Each is described above with its drive time and the operators that handle private flights there.

How do immigration and customs work on arrival?

Passport control and customs are cleared inside the private terminal in a few minutes. UK, EU and US passport holders receive a visa on arrival; for other nationalities we confirm the requirement when we book.

Can my dog travel with me?

Pets travel in the cabin. The UAE requires an import permit, microchip, vaccination record and health certificate in advance; we arrange the paperwork with the handler. Allow a week or two for the permit.

Can I pay for the charter with crypto?

Yes. Bank transfer in any major currency; crypto also accepted. Tell us your preferred coin and we confirm the network and payment instructions with the contract.

Do you arrange the car at each end?

Yes. We coordinate chauffeured cars on both ends, so a car meets you at the aircraft in Dubai and the driver knows the airport's private terminal.
