INDICATIVE ONE-WAY PRICES FROM DUBAI

Dubai – Riyadh, about 2 hours, midsize: $11,000–15,000.

Dubai – Tashkent, about 3.5 hours, light or midsize: $15,000–25,000.

Dubai – Malé (Maldives), about 4 hours, midsize: $22,000–30,000.

Dubai – Moscow, about 5 hours, super-midsize: $38,000–48,000.

Dubai – Nice, about 7 hours, super-midsize: $53,000–67,000.

Dubai – London, about 7.5 hours, heavy: $70,000–100,000.

These are flight-time estimates. The final quote also depends on where the aircraft is based (positioning), airport and handling fees, overnight crew costs, catering and the season. A return trip on the same aircraft is often cheaper per leg than two one-ways.

HOW TO PAY LESS

Empty legs — an aircraft flying back empty — can cost 25–75% less, if your dates are flexible. Choosing the smallest jet that covers your range without a fuel stop saves more than any discount. Over 6–8 passengers, a larger jet is often cheaper per seat than first class.
