As a rule of thumb, EUR 5,600 to 9,400 on a light jet and EUR 9,400 to 12,600 on a midsize, before positioning and handling. A two hour flight from Bordeaux covers roughly 1,300 km, city pairs like the routes listed above.
About 0h 58m wheels up to wheels down on a light jet, with boarding at the private terminal taking minutes rather than hours. Timings vary with winds and routing.
