Asia by Private Jet from Australia: Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Bali

Asia-Pacific · 20 October 2026 · 4 min read

Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Bali are the four Asia-Pacific destinations Australians fly to most. All four are long flights, and the aircraft that can do them are a step up from the ones used inside Australia.

Flying times and aircraft

Indicative airport-to-airport times for a heavy or ultra long range jet, using its typical cruise speed; a super midsize jet can also fly Melbourne or Sydney to Bali non-stop. Routes, winds and the exact aircraft change them; our quotation confirms them. See when to step up to a heavy or ultra long range jet for the aircraft.

Singapore

Singapore is a regional financial and commercial centre and the usual first stop for Australian executives heading into South-East Asia. Changi is the major hub; Seletar, in the north of the island, is where much business and general aviation is based. See private jet hire Singapore and Melbourne to Singapore.

Hong Kong

Hong Kong International Airport, on Chek Lap Kok island, has a dedicated business aviation centre for private aircraft. It is one of Asia’s leading financial centres, and trips from Australia are mostly corporate. See private jet hire Hong Kong.

Tokyo

Tokyo has two airports, Haneda, closest to the city, and Narita, east of it in Chiba. Which one takes a private jet, and when, depends on slots and the rules at the time, and we confirm it before we quote. Tokyo is a business destination and a winter-sports gateway, with Hokkaido and Nagano ski resorts a short onward flight or transfer away. See private jet hire Tokyo.

Bali

Bali is the shortest of the four and the favourite overseas escape for many Australians. Ngurah Rai International Airport at Denpasar is the island’s only major airport, and Indonesian landing permits and entry rules apply to every international private flight.

Linking the cities

Many Asia trips are not out and back. A charter can fly the whole loop, with the positioning planned as part of one trip. These are the legs between the four, with the smallest class that flies each one non-stop.

Indicative airport-to-airport times, using the typical cruise speed of the class.

The shorter legs are well within a midsize jet, which keeps the cost of a multi-city trip in proportion. The long legs to and from Australia are where the larger aircraft are needed, and they are the part of the plan we price carefully.

Time differences

Singapore, Hong Kong and Bali are two hours behind Melbourne and Sydney in winter, and three hours behind when daylight saving applies in the eastern states. Tokyo is one hour behind in winter, and two when daylight saving applies. Plan the day you arrive as well as the day you leave.

What to plan

• Notice. Permits and slots take time; ask early.
• Passports and visas. Check each passenger’s entry requirements; see international private flights from Australia
• Onward legs. A charter can continue to the next city, so plan the whole itinerary, not one flight.
• Aircraft. The class you need depends on the party as much as the distance; we recommend one and quote the alternative if it is close.

Send us the destination, the dates and the number of passengers, and we will quote.
