Private Jet Charter

Private Jet Charter Australia

Most private jet charter in Australia happens for the same underlying reason: a movement matters too much to leave to a commercial timetable. An executive team that has to reach three cities before close of business. A FIFO rotation that can’t wait for the next available commercial seat. A film crew that needs to be on location by dawn, or a patient who needs to move now.

AVMIN has handled movements like these for organisations under pressure for decades. Our team brings more than 130 years of combined aviation and logistics experience, backed by a worldwide network of trusted partner operators, including access to BARS and WYVERN accredited operators where required.  Hire a private jet through AVMIN and one charter specialist remains accountable for the whole operation, from the first call to wheels down.

Trusted by industry leaders, AVMIN offers seamless transportation solutions. We set the benchmark with our adherence to the highest safety standards.

How Private Jet Charter Works

There’s no platform to log into and no automated quote to decode. You talk to people who know the aircraft, the routes, and what your operation actually needs.

  1. Tell us what you’re moving. Send the team your departure point, destination, date, and passenger count by phone or email. Running FIFO or a recurring route? Share the rotation schedule and we’ll build the programme around it.
  2. We find the right aircraft. Using our extensive network of trusted aircraft operators across Australia and internationally, we source the rightaircraft for your route, group size, and schedule, then present your options in plain terms and confirm availability before you commit.
  3. We take the logistics off your desk. Where required, we coordinate ground handling, private terminal access, customs and immigration for international sectors, catering and all operational logistics before departure, so you’re not the one chasing confirmations.
  4. You fly. Your dedicated AVMIN charter specialist remains across every stage of the journey. If plans change, we’ve already started managing the solution before you need to ask.

Aircraft Types Available

The right aircraft is the one that fits the job: how far you’re going, how many people are moving, and what the airstrip at the far end can handle. With access to a broad network of trusted aircraft operators across Australia and internationally, we source the aircraft that’s best suited to your requirements, ensuring you’re never limited to a single fleet or operator.

Turboprop Aircraft

Ideal for regional Australia, remote mine sites and airports with shorter runways. Turboprops provide excellent efficiency while accessing locations many jet aircraft cannot.

Light Jet

Designed for small groups travelling between Australia’s major capital cities, light jets combine speed, comfort and flexibility while avoiding airline schedules.

Midsize Jet

A popular choice for executive teams travelling interstate, offering a spacious cabin, generous baggage capacity and greater range for longer domestic sectors.

Super Midsize Jet

Perfect for non-stop travel between Australia’s eastern and western states, while also providing the range for destinations throughout New Zealand, the Pacific and Southeast Asia.

Heavy Jet

The premium long-range option. Full stand-up cabin, generous baggage capacity and onboard amenities make heavy jets ideal for Australia’s longest domestic routes and international travel. Well suited to larger delegations and overseas journeys without the need for fuel stops.

Regional Airliner

Regional airliners are ideal for FIFO operations, workforce transport, corporate groups and scheduled charter services. They provide an excellent balance of passenger capacity, operating efficiency and access to regional airports, making them a popular choice for mining, energy, government and community charter flights across Australia.

VIP Airliner

VIP airliners combine the capacity of a commercial aircraft with the flexibility and exclusivity of private charter. They are ideal for government delegations, executive teams, sporting teams, entertainment teams, incentive groups and major events, offering premium comfort while transporting larger groups efficiently throughout Australia and internationally.

Who Uses Private Jet Charter in Australia

Corporate and executive travel

Getting leadership to Brisbane, Sydney, and Melbourne inside one working day, or running an investor roadshow across four cities in two, is where a corporate charter flight earns its place. We handle the coordination, so your executive assistant isn’t juggling three separate bookings before lunch.

FIFO and mining operations

Resources companies across the Pilbara, Goldfields, and Kimberley rely on AVMIN to move crews on schedules commercial airlines simply don’t offer. We coordinate access to remote airports and airstrips where operationally suitable, compliance-focussed operations and one accountable charter specialist throughout the entire rotation.

Our FIFO flight services page provides more information about workforce charter solutions.

Events, sport, and entertainment

Touring artists, professional teams, and production crews run on schedules no published timetable can match, so we build multi-leg itineraries around performance windows,fixtures and production requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

Every charter is priced according to the aircraft, route, passenger numbers, timing and operational requirements, so there is no one-size-fits-all figure. 

You’ll receive a clear quotation outlining the charter cost and any applicable taxes, airport charges or additional services before anything is confirmed.

If your travel dates are flexible, ask us about empty leg flights, which may be available at significantly reduced rates.

For most domestic charter flights, a few days’ notice provides the greatest choice of aircraft and availability. 

However, smaller aircraft can sometimes be arranged with only a few hours notice, subject to aircraft and crew availability. For larger aircraft, international flights, group charters or peak travel periods, booking earlier is recommended.

There is no meaningful difference. Australians commonly use the terms interchangeably. 

Both refer to an aircraft chartered for your exclusive use, operating according to your schedule rather than a published airline timetable.

AVMIN works with reputable aircraft operators that meet applicable Australian aviation safety and regulatory requirements. 

Where required by a client’s policy or project, we can source operators holding recognised accreditations such as BARS and WYVERN. Operator suitability, aircraft capability and compliance requirements are assessed for each charter.

Yes. Through our worldwide network of trusted aircraft operators, we coordinate international private jet charter from Australia to destinations across the globe. 

Where required, we can also coordinate permits, customs and immigration, international ground handling, catering and other operational arrangements.

An empty leg is a flight where an aircraft is repositioning without passengers, usually returning to base or travelling to its next charter.

These flights can sometimes be available at reduced rates, although the timing, route and aircraft are generally less flexible than a standard charter.

Register for empty leg alerts and we’ll let you know when a suitable flight becomes available on your preferred route.

Absolutely. AVMIN regularly coordinates charter flights for FIFO workforces, sporting teams, conferences, corporate groups, government agencies, production crews and major events throughout Australia and internationally.
