LFPB to FIMP 5,103 nm SE 129 degrees true
Private JetCharter Paristo Mauritius
5,103 nautical miles direct. About 11h 01m nonstop in a ultra long range jet. Operators bid on this leg without knowing who is flying it.
The leg
Paris to Mauritius
The great circle track from Paris to Mauritius runs 5,103 nautical miles on an initial heading of 129 degrees true. A ultra long range jet covers it nonstop in roughly 11h 01m, before winds.
Very few aircraft connect these two cities without stopping. The ones that do are the top of the market, and even then the answer moves with payload and the winds on the day. The clock change is 3 hours ahead in winter and 2 hours ahead in summer, because the two cities shift their daylight saving rules on different dates.
Nonstop capability starts at the heavy jet class on this route, with the Gulfstream G550 the smallest airframe we would put on it without a stop. A further 4 aircraft can do it nonstop on a good day, and those are the quotes worth reading carefully. A marginal leg becomes a fuel stop the moment the winds turn, the cabin fills, or the departure field is hot and high. 34 of the aircraft we track cannot make it without stopping at all, which does not rule them out. A stop on a cheaper airframe sometimes still wins on total cost, and the bid comparison will show you whether it does.
Book range figures assume long range cruise, standard reserves and a stated payload. Load the cabin, add bags, put the departure field at elevation on a hot afternoon, and the real number comes down. We treat anything above roughly 80 percent of book range as a leg that needs the operator to confirm against the specific tail number rather than the brochure.

Airports
Which runway you actually use
Departing Paris. Most charter traffic uses Paris Le Bourget (LFPB / LBG). The credible alternates are Charles de Gaulle (CDG) and Paris Orly (ORY). Which one you leave from is worth deciding on ground time rather than on the map, because twenty minutes of extra driving often buys a cheaper ramp and a faster departure.
Arriving Mauritius. Most charter traffic uses Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam (FIMP / MRU). The credible alternates are Seychelles International (SEZ). Pick the one closest to where you are actually going. The airport with the famous name is frequently the wrong answer.
Confirm slot availability, customs hours and overnight parking at both ends before you commit to a departure time. Those three items cause more schedule changes than weather does.
| Airport | ICAO | IATA | Metro | End | Role |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Paris Le Bourget | LFPB | LBG | Paris | Departure | Preferred |
| Charles de Gaulle | LFPG | CDG | Paris | Departure | Customs |
| Paris Orly | LFPO | ORY | Paris | Departure | Alternate |
| Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam | FIMP | MRU | Mauritius | Arrival | Preferred |
| Seychelles International | FSIA | SEZ | Mauritius | Arrival | Alternate |
Cost
What moves the number
The honest answer to what this costs is that it depends, so here is precisely what it depends on.
- Positioning. Where the aircraft sits when you call. If it is already on your departure ramp you pay for your legs only. If it has to fly in empty and fly home afterwards, someone pays for that, and it is you.
- Daily minimum. Most operators bill a minimum number of flight hours per day the aircraft is away. A short leg with a three night stay can price higher than a long leg that returns the same day.
- Crew duty. A crew has a legal duty limit. Cross enough time zones or depart late enough and the trip needs a second crew or an overnight, and both cost money.
- Ramp and handling. Landing fees, ramp fees, overnight parking and the FBO handling charge vary enormously between fields in the same metro.
- Peak days. Operators apply surcharges around the predictable weekends. Thanksgiving Sunday, the Super Bowl, Art Basel, the Fourth of July and the ski season change of week all price differently.
- Fuel and stops. A technical stop costs fuel to climb back to altitude, a landing fee, handling, and forty five minutes to an hour of ground time.
- De-icing. Winter departures from northern fields add de-icing, which is charged by volume of fluid and can be a serious number on a large aircraft.
- International handling. Customs, immigration, overflight permits, landing permits and a local handling agent. On some routings the permits need days of lead time.
Our fee sits on top of the operator price as its own line, visible, so you can see both halves. Send the trip and the operators bid against each other on all of the above at once.
Timing
Season, weather and the clock
Mauritius sits in the tropics, where the practical seasons are wet and dry rather than hot and cold. Afternoon convective weather is the routine cause of delay, so morning departures hold their schedule more reliably.
Questions
LBG to MRU
How long is a private jet flight from Paris to Mauritius?
The great circle distance is 5,103 nautical miles, which is about 9,450 km. A ultra long range jet covers it nonstop in roughly 11h 01m block to block. A heavy jet flies the distance in about 11h 17m, and a light jet in about 11h 34m if it can make it without stopping. These are planning estimates in still air and exclude winds and air traffic routing.
Can a light jet fly Paris to Mauritius nonstop?
No. This leg needs about 259 percent of a light jet's published range, so plan on a fuel stop or move up to a class with the legs for it. The smallest aircraft that does it nonstop with margin is the Gulfstream G550.
Which airport should I use in Mauritius?
Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam (FIMP) handles most charter traffic. The alternates are Seychelles International (SEZ). Choose on ground time to your final address rather than on the name you recognise.
Do I clear customs on a private flight from Paris to Mauritius?
Yes. Crossing a border on a private aircraft still means customs and immigration at both ends, but it happens at the private terminal rather than in a terminal queue, and it is usually a matter of minutes. The operator files the passenger manifest in advance, so passport details are needed before departure rather than at the airport. Some routings also need landing or overflight permits with days of lead time, which is worth raising early.
What does a private jet from Paris to Mauritius cost?
We do not publish a figure, because a fixed number for this route would be invented. The dominant variable is where the aircraft is parked when you call, not the aircraft type. Positioning legs, daily minimums, crew duty, ramp fees, peak day surcharges and taxes all move the total. Send the trip through the quote form and certificated operators bid against each other on it, sealed, without knowing who you are.
Are empty legs available on this route?
Sometimes. An empty leg exists when an operator has to reposition an aircraft along this track anyway, so the timing is theirs and not yours. They appear and vanish with little notice and get cancelled when the paying trip behind them changes. Flag empty legs on the quote form and we will include any that fit your window, but do not build a fixed commitment around one.
