The closest airports to Silverstone
There are several nearby airports to choose from if you want to travel to Silverstone by private jet. London Luton and Birmingham are two large airports accessible by private jet, both located about 50 miles from Silverstone, while Cranfield Airport offers a more intimate experience 18 miles from the racetrack.
Turweston Aerodrome is the closest option, just seven miles away, but typically only accommodates pistons, single turbines, twin turbines, very light jets such as the Cessna Citation Mustang, and light jets with short runway performance like the Cessna Citation CJ3.
Travelling to Silverstone by private jet

As soon as you contact us, you’ll be assigned a dedicated account manager, who is available 24/7 and will organise everything from sourcing the right aircraft to the smaller details like champagne on arrival.
Instead of driving to the racetrack, we recommend booking a helicopter to Silverstone to avoid heavy traffic. We can arrange a helicopter charter from the airport straight to the heart of the action at the exclusive Silverstone Heliport. On arrival, one of our team will escort you to a VIP enclosure for a complimentary glass of champagne, before a chauffeured car whisks you off to the grandstand or hospitality area.
After the event draws to a close, skip the crowds and hop in a chauffeured car back to the heliport, where your helicopter awaits to fly you home or to back your private jet.
About the British Grand Prix at Silverstone
Set near the Northamptonshire villages of Towcester, Silverstone and Whittlebury, Silverstone Circuit first hosted the British Grand Prix in 1948 – although history books often reference 1950, as this was the first season of the World Championship of Drivers format we know today.
The British Grand Prix rotated between Silverstone, Aintree and Brands Hatch from 1955 to 1986, before settling permanently at Silverstone in 1987. Despite its unofficial status as Britain’s home of motor racing, Silverstone’s place on the calendar was often in doubt. But the event endured and today the circuit has its own interactive museum, as well as thriving commercial parks housing businesses like the Aston Martin Formula One Team.
The track itself has altered a lot from its humble beginnings as a windswept WWII airfield, with F1 drivers whizzing around 5.89 km of tarmac during the 58-lap race.
