MotoGP Silverstone (British GP) helicopter transfers — quick answer
Silverstone runs a fully licensed on-site event helipad for race weekend, roughly 20 minutes from London Battersea and 25 minutes from Farnborough. Guide price is about £2,600–£3,400 one-way for a four-to-six seat twin, and arrival slots are booked as a pair (inbound and outbound) because departures after the chequered flag are sequenced.
Departure points to Silverstone
| Departure point | Flight time | Cabin | From (one-way) |
|---|---|---|---|
London Battersea Heliport (EGLW) Central London pick-up; the standard hospitality departure. | 22 min | 4–6 seats | "Priced per mission" |
Farnborough (EGLF) Direct jet-to-helicopter handover on the FBO apron. | 25 min | 4–6 seats | "Priced per mission" |
London Luton (EGGW) | 20 min | 4–6 seats | "Priced per mission" |
London Oxford (EGTK) Closest jet gateway — shortest helicopter leg of the weekend. | 12 min | 4–6 seats | "Priced per mission" |
RAF Northolt (EGWU) Subject to Northolt slot availability. | 22 min | 4–6 seats | "Priced per mission" |
Birmingham (EGBB) | 20 min | 4–6 seats | "Priced per mission" |

Where you land at MotoGP Silverstone (British GP)
The Silverstone event helipad operates immediately adjacent to the circuit for the race weekend under CAA-approved temporary arrangements and event slot control, with a marshalled shuttle to the paddock, Wing and hospitality suites. Landing on the infield or in adjacent farmland is not permitted. Where the helipad is at capacity, we route to Turweston (EGBT), two miles from the circuit, with a pre-booked car for the final leg.
Arrival timing & slot planning for MotoGP Silverstone (British GP)
- Book the inbound and outbound as one slot pair — outbound movements after the race are released in waves and the last aircraft can wait 45–70 minutes.
- Plan to land 90 minutes before the first session you want to see; helipad-to-suite transfer plus accreditation is typically 20–25 minutes.
- Saturday qualifying and Sunday race day are the two saturated windows; Friday practice arrivals are usually available at short notice.
- Allow 15 minutes of ground handling at Battersea or Farnborough before the departure slot; Battersea has fixed noise-curfew hours.
- For groups above six, we run two aircraft on adjacent slots rather than a single larger cabin — it is faster through the pad and usually cheaper.
