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 Gibraltar.
Why does Gibraltar Airport have a road crossing its runway?
Gibraltar Airport has one of the most unusual runway layouts in Europe. Winston Churchill Avenue, the main road linking Gibraltar with the Spanish border, crosses the runway near its midpoint. When aircraft are landing or departing, traffic barriers close the road in a similar way to a railway crossing. Once the aircraft movement is complete, the road reopens and vehicles continue across the runway area.

Can private jets land at Gibraltar Airport?
Yes. Gibraltar Airport regularly accommodates private jet flights alongside commercial airline and military operations. Aircraft commonly used for European charter flights, including turboprops, light jets and midsize business jets, operate into the airport. Larger aircraft may occasionally operate depending on weight, conditions and operational planning.

How close is Gibraltar Airport to the city centre?
Gibraltar Airport is located at the northern edge of the territory immediately beside the Spanish border, making it one of the closest airports to a city centre in Europe. Transfers to Gibraltar’s town centre, marinas and business districts typically take less than 10 minutes depending on traffic.

Why do some private jet travellers fly into Málaga instead of Gibraltar?
Some private jet flights travelling to Gibraltar operate into Málaga Airport instead because it can accommodate larger aircraft and offers extensive aviation infrastructure. From Málaga, travellers typically continue west along the Costa del Sol by car or helicopter to reach Gibraltar and nearby destinations such as Sotogrande or Marbella.
