How Much Does a Private Jet Rental to the Canary Islands Cost?
Typical hourly private jet charter rates by aircraft category:
- $1,800 – $2,400 per hour for turboprops;
- $2,400 – $3,900 per hour for light jets;
- $4,200 – $8,100 per hour for midsize and super-midsize jets;
- $7,200 – $17,800+ per hour for heavy and ultra-long-range jets.
An estimated cost of a one-way transatlantic charter between the East Coast of the U.S. and Europe is $89,000 to $105,000+. The reason is that a transatlantic flight requires an aircraft with either a heavy or an ultra-long-range capability. Intra-European flights such as London to Tenerife and Geneva to Tenerife cost less at approximately $39,000 and $38,000 respectively.
Top Private Jet Routes to and from the Canary Islands
- New York ⇄ Canary Islands: At roughly 3,000 nautical miles, this crossing flies nonstop on long-range jets like the Gulfstream G550. Flight time runs about 6.5 to 7.5 hours. It suits executives and family offices moving to the islands for the winter season.
- Miami ⇄ Canary Islands: The longest common transatlantic leg to the archipelago, nearly 3,500 nautical miles. Ultra-long-range aircraft such as the Gulfstream G650ER or Global 7500 fly it nonstop.
- London ⇄ Canary Islands: The busiest feeder route, around 4 hours from Farnborough or Biggin Hill. A midsize jet covers it without a fuel stop. Equally booked for board off-sites and extended family stays on the south coast.
- Madrid ⇄ Canary Islands: A 2.5–3 hour domestic hop and the workhorse mainland connection. Spanish corporates use it for same-day board meetings; private owners use it to reach island villas quickly.
- Geneva ⇄ Canary Islands: A four-hour run that brings finance principals and private-banking clients south for the season — often paired with golf at Abama or a villa stay in Meloneras.
- Tenerife ⇄ Gran Canaria: A 30 to 50-minute flight via light jet, turboprop, or helicopter. This gives a principal the opportunity to conduct business on both islands within one day.

Canary Islands Overview
The Canary Islands are a Spanish autonomous community in the Atlantic, located off the northwest coast of Africa and connected to mainland Europe. Beyond tourism, the archipelago is a recognized business jurisdiction. The Canary Islands Special Zone (ZEC) offers a 4% corporate tax rate, drawing holding companies, shipping operators, and technology firms. The Port of Las Palmas is one of the busiest commercial and cruise ports in the mid-Atlantic, and the islands’ film-production incentives attract international studios and crews year-round.
For private travelers, there is the advantage of constant weather between 18-30°C, luxury hotel resorts, championship golf facilities, and volcano reserves. Demand for private aircraft flights peaks during the winter season, when business executives and wealthy individuals visit the islands.
