BEST VALUE
Light Jet
The Eclipse 550 clears both runways and has range headroom on the 341 nm leg without stepping up into a larger, more expensive cabin — the lowest hourly cost that still handles this pair reliably.
Indicative all-in €3,900
MOST POPULAR
Midsize
Midsize aircraft like the Cessna Citation VII are the workhorse of Vienna–Dubrovnik — they hit the sweet spot on cabin comfort, block time and cost that the majority of charterers pick.

On Vienna → Dubrovnik, aircraft positioning is the biggest lever on price today.
PRICE DRIVERS
Aircraft based off-route are repositioned to Vienna before pickup — the shorter that leg, the more competitive the quote.
If the aircraft can't pick up a return charter from Dubrovnik, the empty repositioning leg is baked into your quote.
Landing, handling and ramp fees on VIE–DBV are set field by field — VIE and DBV each carry their own coordinated-airport surcharge profile.
Across 341 nm the fuel uplift is a bounded line item on VIE–DBV, not the driver of the quote.
Vienna → Dubrovnik demand cycles pull the 341 nm sector off its low band on peak weeks.
Ramp capacity at DBV constrains the lift available for 341 nm inbounds from Vienna — operators quote accordingly.
Weather rarely re-prices VIE–DBV beyond marginal fuel adjustments over 341 nm.
Slot coordination at DBV — peak-season Saturdays especially — forces earlier commitment on Vienna departures and raises handling on VIE–DBV.
At 341 nm, VIE–DBV sits far inside a single crew duty period — no augmented crew cost.
Overnight parking at DBV is normally available and adds a defined ramp and handling fee to the VIE–DBV quote.
SAVING OPPORTUNITIES
Saving levers on Vienna → Dubrovnik
If the aircraft is already positioned closer to another Vienna-area field, using it reduces positioning cost and often trims 5–15% off the quote.
Alternative arrivals near DBV can trim handling and slot pressure on VIE–DBV — see the airport comparison above.
VIE ↔ DBV (341 nm) is a corridor we monitor for empty legs — set an alert and match one when your dates flex.
Departing 2–4 hours off the peak slot window at VIE drops handling and slot fees on the 341 nm run to DBV.
341 nm is inside super-midsize range, so a category step down from heavy metal on VIE–DBV cuts the quote with almost identical cabin comfort.

Best departure time
Mid-morning (10:00–12:00) departure from VIE clears the weekday slot peak and lands DBV before midday handling pressure.

Full-charter one-way, desk quote
€3,300 – €5,300
Light Jet through Midsize over 341 nm VIE–DBV, all-in of landing, handling, crew and fuel surcharge. Weekend and peak-season departures out of VIE sit at the upper end.
Price stand: August 2026. VIE–DBV quotes move with fuel, crew duty and slot availability — we re-price at the point of booking.
VIE–DBV supply — workable
VIE — 84 archived movements (41 out / 43 in) from 12 operators. DBV — 20 archived movements (9 out / 11 in) from 10 operators. The thinner end sets the price on VIE–DBV: 24–48h notice materially improves the quote.
Positioning into Vienna (VIE)
When the based fleet is committed, the next VIE–DBV lift comes from LOWW (0 nm, 24 aircraft), LZIB (26 nm, 2 aircraft), LOWG (81 nm, 1 aircraft). Those ferries add roughly 20–45 minutes of billed time, which is why identical requests can quote differently on the same day.
Positioning into Dubrovnik (DBV)
When the based fleet is committed, the next VIE–DBV lift comes from LYPG (45 nm, 1 aircraft), LQMO (47 nm, 1 aircraft), LYBE (162 nm, 5 aircraft). Those ferries add roughly 20–45 minutes of billed time, which is why identical requests can quote differently on the same day.
Dubrovnik (DBV)
Charter movement in our archive concentrates in July and August (95% of 20 recorded legs), and falls away in September. For VIE–DBV that means booking the peak weeks 2–3 weeks out: the based fleet sells out first, then ferried lift, then nothing, while September is where negotiation actually works.
Global 7500 / Gulfstream G650 on a short sector
Over 341 nm an ultra-long-range cabin bills roughly €8,100/hour for a flight measured in single-digit hours, and rarely repositions economically to this pair. You pay ULR money for a cabin you cannot use.
Empty Legs
Repositioning legs departing VIE within 14 days, priced per aircraft for up to 19 seats.
