Blackbushe Airport is a long-established general aviation airfield positioned on the borders of Hampshire, Surrey and Berkshire, and it serves a specific part of the wider London private jet charter market very well. Located approximately 60 kilometres southwest of central London, it is best understood as an airport for lighter charter aircraft and for travellers heading to the western and southwestern side of the capital rather than deep into central London itself.

Frequently Asked Questions
The BLAK team answers the most common questions and covers the essentials for those thinking about flying to and from Bilbao.
What size private jets can operate into Bilbao Airport?
Bilbao Airport operates a runway of approximately 2,600 metres, allowing operations for turboprops, light jets, midsize business jets and many large-cabin aircraft depending on payload and routing. This makes it suitable for both short European charter flights and longer-range private aviation movements.

Are helicopter transfers available from Bilbao Airport?
Helicopter transfers can sometimes be arranged for travellers wishing to reach destinations along the Basque coastline or nearby regions more quickly. These transfers depend on operational permissions and suitable landing locations but can significantly reduce travel time to coastal towns and countryside estates.

How close is Bilbao Airport to the city centre?
Bilbao Airport is located roughly 9 kilometres from central Bilbao. In light traffic, transfers into the city typically take around 12 to 15 minutes by car, making it one of the more convenient airport transfers among major Spanish cities.

Are there slot restrictions for private jets at Bilbao Airport?
Bilbao Airport operates as a coordinated airport during peak periods, meaning arrival and departure slots are required for both commercial and private aircraft. Outside of major travel peaks, slot availability is generally manageable, but requests should always be secured in advance to guarantee preferred timings.
