London 2012 - How are you getting there?

Private jet to the Olympics?

With the London 2012 Olympic Games less than 100 days away, more and more people are beginning to make travel plans for the event. With major airports and commercial flights already at bursting point for many private aviation is turning out to be the best solution. With access to many more airports not open to commercial traffic, private flights to London 2012 are the ideal way to beat congestion and delays whilst getting as close to the games as possible.

However, due to heightened security measures and the forecast for massive increases in commercial traffic, slots will be severely restricted throughout the period of the games. This coupled with limits on the number of aircraft in the prohibited zone at any one time means that time will be key in securing any flights in to London. For all private jet flights to the Olympics and any other charters during this period, Execflyer is urging its clients to book as far in advance as possible to secure aircraft and slots.

Head of Charter Sales Jamie Dickson said "As the biggest event in the 2012 calendar, we envisage London 2012 to be an incredibly busy time for us. To ensure we can offer the best solutions, we have been talking directly with the CAA and attending all Olympic airspace briefings so our consultants have a clear view of the processes and restrictions in place. We still cannot stress enough how time critical all flights will be, and would advise anyone wishing to travel to give us as much notice as possible to secure slots and aircraft".

Further to concerns around slots, Execflyer has also been in talks with a number of alternate airfields outside of the London area coupled with helicopter flights to the Olympics venues. This offers an alternate solution to our clients that may not have as much notice, and will also allow us to accommodate a larger number of flights.
