Sports team charter flights
A team trip is a logistics operation: 30 to 80 people, tight schedules, heavy equipment and recovery time to protect. We charter aircraft for clubs, federations and event organisers, from a weekend away game to a multi-city tour.
Who we fly
- Football, basketball, rugby, handball and volleyball clubs, for domestic and international away games.
- Motorsport teams with staff, mechanics and equipment.
- National teams and federations for qualifiers and tournaments.
- Athletics, cycling, tennis, golf and combat sports delegations.
- Event organisers and sponsors moving guests to finals and championships.
Choosing the aircraft
- Up to about 15 passengers: large business jets suit coaching staff, small squads and VIP guests.
- 16 to 80 passengers: regional jets and turboprops, depending on distance and runway.
- 80 to 200 passengers: narrow-body airliners for full squads with staff and equipment.
- Equipment: check baggage weight, volume and special items such as bikes, poles, boats or medical kit.
What matters for teams
- Timing: departure after the match, with approvals for late-night operations at the airport.
- Recovery: seating, space, menus and the calm of a private cabin.
- Security and privacy: no fans or media in a terminal; discreet airport access.
- Customs and entry: visas, passport checks and equipment documentation for international fixtures.
- Budget: group charter for a full squad is often competitive with scheduled flights once baggage, transfers and time are counted.
How we plan
Send us the fixture list, the party size, the equipment and your constraints. We propose the aircraft and the schedule, with options for the return that depend on the result. For a season programme, we can quote a full set of away games in one request. See our guides on private jets for sports teams and group charter.
