12-Person Group Charters: When a Heavy Jet Beats Two Midsize Jets
The private jet market in DACH has a gap: what does it actually cost when you have 12 people?
For groups of 10 to 12, the calculation shifts. A single Heavy Jet like a Gulfstream G450 or Falcon 900LX carries 10-14 passengers at 8,500 to 11,500 EUR per flight hour. Two Midsize Jets for the same group means double the crew, double the handling fees, and typically 10-15% more in total costs.
On Munich to Mallorca, a 12-person Heavy Jet costs around 22,000 to 30,000 EUR one-way. That is roughly 1,833 to 2,500 EUR per person, approaching business class economics with the cabin exclusively for your group.
This German guide on privatjet-vergleich.de covers the full cost breakdown with per-person calculations for all major DACH routes.
Dusseldorf to Mallorca: The Overlooked NRW Summer Route
Dusseldorf (DUS) is Germany's third-largest Business Aviation hub, but most charter guides focus on Frankfurt and Munich. NRW has a dense network of family businesses and mid-market firms that regularly charter, and Mallorca is the number one summer destination.
A Light Jet from DUS to Mallorca costs 9,500 to 13,000 EUR one-way in about 2 hours 10 minutes. Monchengladbach Airport (MGL) offers the same route with handling fees 1,000 to 2,000 EUR lower per movement.
Full pricing with FBO comparison for the DUS-PMI route is now available in German.
