Skip to main contentZephyr Jets arranges private jet charter flights from Los Angeles to Paris on ultra-long-range jets. The nonstop flight takes about 11 hours 15 minutes, departing from Los Angeles International Airport (KLAX) and landing at Paris-Le Bourget (LFPB), the main private aviation airport for Paris, about 10 miles from the city center. We also source empty leg and one-way flights on this route when an operator is repositioning an aircraft, which can lower the cost of the trip.
You will not be charged until a reservation agent has confirmed all flight details and you have returned a signed confirmation form.

A Los Angeles to Paris private jet charter is a flight in which you book an entire aircraft for your group, rather than buying individual seats on an airline. You choose the departure time and the aircraft. Your group boards at a private aviation terminal in Los Angeles and flies to Paris, where you clear customs at a private aviation facility rather than a commercial terminal.
Zephyr Jets is a private jet charter broker with experience in international and transatlantic flights. We source the aircraft, compare operators, arrange the itinerary and support your trip around the clock. Your flight is operated by an independent charter operator, which is a US air carrier holding FAA Part 135 certification. Zephyr Jets does not own or operate aircraft and is not a direct or indirect air carrier.

Ultra-long-range jets and business airliners can fly Los Angeles to Paris nonstop. Light, midsize, super-midsize and most standard heavy jets cannot, and need a fuel stop, which is typically on the US East Coast or in Canada.
The distance is about 4,900 nautical miles, so range matters. These are the aircraft we most often source for this route:
| Aircraft | Category | Typical Range | Best suited for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gulfstream G-V | Ultra-long-range | ~6,500 nm | Groups wanting a proven long-range cabin |
| Gulfstream G-550 | Ultra-long-range | ~6,700 nm | Groups wanting a long-range cabin with margin for winds |
| Gulfstream G-650 | Ultra-long-range | ~7,000 nm | Groups wanting the largest Gulfstream cabin and range |
| Global Express XRS | Ultra-long-range | ~6,000 nm | Groups wanting a large cabin and baggage space |
| Falcon 7X | Ultra-long-range | ~5,900 nm | Smaller groups wanting an efficient nonstop flight |
| Boeing Business Jet (BBJ) | Business airliner | Varies by configuration | Larger groups wanting a VIP cabin |
| Airbus corporate jet | Business airliner | Varies by model | Larger groups wanting maximum space |
*Manufacturer-published ranges vary with passengers, baggage, fuel and configuration. Actual nonstop capability on a given day also depends on winds and weather.
The most common aircraft for a one-way flight from Los Angeles to Paris or elsewhere in Europe is a Gulfstream or a Global. We check range, passenger count and baggage against your itinerary before we propose an aircraft.

Los Angeles International (KLAX) is 16 miles from downtown Los Angeles and has private aviation facilities. It is the usual departure point for nonstop flights to Europe.
Paris-Le Bourget (LFPB) is about 10 miles from central Paris and is Paris’s main business aviation airport. Customs and immigration are handled at the private aviation facility, so you avoid the commercial terminals.
Slots, parking and operating hours at Le Bourget can be limited, especially during major events and peak periods, so we plan these details with your operator in advance. Depending on your destination and aircraft, we can also review Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG), Paris-Orly (ORY) or other European airports.
Flights between the United States and France involve international clearance. Your itinerary needs passenger passport details, customs and immigration clearance, landing permits and a handling agent on the ground. Entry requirements vary by nationality and change over time, so check the current rules for your passport before you travel. We coordinate the flight-side requirements with your operator.

An empty leg is a one-way flight flown without passengers because the aircraft is being repositioned, for example returning to its home base or positioning for a pickup. When an operator offers that flight for sale, the price is typically lower than a standard one-way charter.
On long international routes, a well-priced one-way flight on a heavy or ultra-long-range jet can cost significantly less than a standard charter when the aircraft’s schedule matches yours. We review your itinerary and look for ways to match it with an aircraft already moving, which can reduce the flight’s cost.
Empty legs suit travelers who can fly on the dates the aircraft is already moving. They are not available on demand and a specific Los Angeles to Paris empty leg may not exist on a given date. Times, airports and aircraft are set by the operator and can change.
Pricing is set per flight and quoted individually. These are the factors that move it:
Ultra-long-range jets and business airliners cost more to operate than smaller aircraft, and a BBJ or Airbus costs more than a Gulfstream or Global.
A flight of about 11 hours is priced on the aircraft's hourly operating cost.
If the aircraft is not based in Los Angeles, the operator may need to fly in to pick you up and fly back after you land. A matched empty leg reduces this cost.
A one-way flight must account for the aircraft's return, while a round-trip can use the same aircraft and may involve waiting or overnight charges.
Long flights require additional crew and rest arrangements.
Landing, handling, navigation, permit and customs costs vary by airport and country.
Fuel costs change with market prices and the aircraft's burn rate.
Holidays, major events and peak travel periods affect availability and pricing.
Catering, ground transportation and special requests are added to your proposal where they apply.
Prices on this route vary widely by aircraft and itinerary, so a single figure would not reflect your trip. Your charter proposal lists the aircraft, itinerary and price before you confirm. See current private jet charter specials for promotional offers.
