Le Bourget in brief
Paris–Le Bourget is Europe’s leading business aviation airport. It has no scheduled airline flights: everything here is private and business aviation, which is why arrivals are quick and discreet.
The airfield is also home to the Musée de l’Air et de l’Espace, France’s air and space museum, and every two years to the Paris Air Show. The next edition runs from June 14 to 20, 2027; expect heavy traffic and restricted access around the airport that week.
The FBOs
Private flights are handled by FBOs, the private terminals of the airport. They include Signature Aviation, Universal Aviation, ExecuJet, Dassault Falcon Service, Jetex, Advanced Air Support, Astonsky and Skyvalet, among others.
Your operator or flight department usually chooses the FBO. Just tell your driver which one it is: each has its own entrance and pickup area.
What your arrival looks like
- Before you fly. Send us your FBO, your estimated arrival time and the number of passengers and bags.
- On landing. Passport control and customs are handled inside the FBO, usually in a matter of minutes.
- At the FBO exit. Your English-speaking chauffeur waits with a sign showing your name, and the FBO team brings your luggage to the car.
- In the car. A Mercedes with water on board and child seats free on request.
- At your door. Straight to your hotel, apartment or first meeting.

When a private driver makes the most sense
Other ways into Paris
Taxis run on the meter from Le Bourget; the flat fares that apply at CDG and Orly do not apply here. Ride-hailing apps such as Uber also serve the airport. Public transport exists, but with luggage it is not a practical option.
Tips from our drivers
- Tell us the name of your FBO when you book. It saves time on arrival.
- Plan around rush hour. The A1 and A3 into Paris are slow on weekday mornings and evenings.
- Departing from Le Bourget? Ask your operator what time to be at the FBO, and we plan the pickup from there.
- Keep WhatsApp on. It is the easiest way for your driver to reach you if your schedule changes.
