The verdict in three sentences
In Eindhoven, a private jet and yacht charter website built by a local agency costs, as a 2026 order of magnitude, between 10 000 and 38 000 EUR, a little below Amsterdam rates, and a good Brabant freelancer quotes 2 500 to 9 000 EUR. Kolonell builds an English-first site with service pages, a qualified request form and clear legal pages at a fixed price of 2 700, 4 500 or 8 200 EUR, which suits a clientele of international engineers and executives who read English daily. Over three years, Kolonell and a solid freelancer end up close in cost, so the decision rests on written scope, project management, the Dutch pages and who owns what.
Who books private flights and yachts from Eindhoven?
Eindhoven sits at the heart of the Brainport region, with Veldhoven and Helmond: semiconductor equipment, high-tech manufacturing, design and engineering firms with customers and suppliers across Germany, Asia and the United States. Private aviation demand here is often business-driven: a short trip to a supplier, an urgent visit to a customer site, a board member who must be in two countries in one day. Eindhoven Airport combines civil and military use, so brokers also route clients through Rotterdam The Hague, Maastricht Aachen, Antwerp or Brussels depending on slots and aircraft.
Yachting is the leisure side of the same clientele: a crewed week in Croatia or Greece for a founder's family, an incentive day on a motor yacht for a team. Nothing is chartered on site, so say explicitly that your yacht charters take place abroad.
What this means for the website:
- corporate clarity first: a page for company travel desks, with how you invoice, your response time and who to call outside office hours;
- a request form built for business trips: route, dates, passengers, luggage, return flexibility, and an optional company reference field for invoicing;
- extra discretion: in a tech cluster, knowing who flies where can reveal a deal or a customer, so never publish client names, routes taken or tail numbers linked to clients;
- English everywhere, Dutch where it counts: legal pages, contact and a short company page in Dutch for local family businesses.
What do Eindhoven agencies, freelancers and Kolonell charge?
These are cautious orders of magnitude, not official figures. They come from public price pages of agencies in Eindhoven and North Brabant, minimum project sizes on Clutch.co profiles, published hourly rates (often 75 to 125 EUR an hour for agencies) and rates on Malt, Upwork and Dutch freelance platforms.

| Item | Starter 2 700 EUR | Growth 4 500 EUR | Premium 8 200 EUR |
|---|---|---|---|
| Core pages | Home, private flights, yacht charter, contact, legal | Plus corporate travel desk, aircraft categories, empty legs listed by hand | Plus destination pages, incentive and events, detailed operator selection page |

A link to your booking or flight management tool, an account area for corporate clients with trip history, instant quotes or an automated empty leg feed are custom applications, quoted on request. Ongoing SEO is also quoted on request.
What does it cost over three years?
Same maintenance assumption on every side; Kolonell maintenance after the support period is quoted on request.
| Item over 36 months | Eindhoven agency (mid-range) | Brabant freelancer | Kolonell Growth |
|---|---|---|---|
| Build, English-first | 20 000 EUR | 6 000 EUR | 4 500 EUR |
| Dutch pages | Included | Included | Integration quoted, assumption 600 EUR, plus translation 700 EUR |
| Maintenance (same assumption) | 140 EUR a month over 33 months, 4 620 EUR | 4 620 EUR | 4 620 EUR, quoted on request |
| Eight new pages over 3 years | About 1 200 EUR | About 800 EUR | Quoted before work, assumption 900 EUR |
| Indicative total | 25 820 EUR | 11 420 EUR | 11 320 EUR |
The freelancer and Kolonell are within about 100 EUR of each other. If a freelancer you trust is available and writes good English, that is a perfectly sound choice; if you want a fixed written scope, weekly reporting and one point of contact, compare on those criteria.
Which rules should the site respect?
A flight is performed by an operator holding an Air Operator Certificate (AOC). In the EU, the framework is set by EASA and applied by national authorities. A broker must not present itself as the operator and should state who operates the flight. For yachts, commercial charter follows the rules of the flag and of the cruising area, and the MYBA contract is a common template in the Mediterranean. Personal data falls under the GDPR, which matters here because corporate travel data can identify employees and their movements. The European Accessibility Act, applicable since 28 June 2025, covers certain consumer services; check whether it applies to you, and use WCAG 2.1 AA as the technical reference. This is not legal advice.

Which questions should you ask every provider?
- Who writes the English and who writes the Dutch? A translated corporate tone reads poorly to international executives.
- Are aircraft photos licensed? Operator and manufacturer images need written permission.
- Is a booking engine hidden in the quote? If yes, ask for a separate line and timeline.
- What does a new page cost after launch? Ask for a figure, not an hourly estimate.
- Who holds the domain and hosting? It should be your company.
A red flag worth naming: any proposal to publish a list of corporate clients or a map of past routes. In this region, that is a confidentiality risk more than a sales argument.
Mini case study
Illustrative example. Sanne de B. runs a five-person business travel concierge in Eindhoven with a private aviation desk and occasional yacht incentives for tech companies. Her current site dates from 2017, loads slowly on mobile and has no proper request form. Quotes received:
- Eindhoven agency: 22 000 EUR, English and Dutch, 10 weeks, team photos included.
- Brabant freelancer: 6 500 EUR, English and Dutch, start in two months.
- Kolonell Growth: 4 500 EUR, plus 600 EUR to integrate four Dutch pages, 700 EUR of translation by her usual translator and 450 EUR for a local portrait photographer.
Kolonell option: 4 500 + 600 + 700 + 450 = 6 250 EUR, against 6 500 EUR for the freelancer and 22 000 EUR for the agency. With the freelancer and Kolonell this close, Sanne weighs the start date and the written weekly updates, which matter to her before the spring trade fair season.
FAQ
How much does a private jet and yacht charter website cost in Eindhoven?
As a 2026 order of magnitude, an agency charges 10 000 to 38 000 EUR and a freelancer 2 500 to 9 000 EUR. Kolonell charges 2 700, 4 500 or 8 200 EUR at a fixed price.
Is an English-only site acceptable in Eindhoven?
For an international clientele, English-first works well. Adding three to five Dutch pages (contact, company, legal) usually costs a few hundred euros in translation and reassures local family firms.
Can the request form capture invoicing details for companies?
Yes, a company reference or cost centre field is a standard form field in Growth. A full corporate account area with trip history is a custom application, quoted on request.
Can Kolonell connect the site to our flight management software?
Not inside a brochure package. An integration is scoped and quoted on request, usually after a 30-minute technical call.
How long until the site is live?
Starter and Growth go live in 3 to 4 weeks once texts and images are ready; Premium follows a written plan, usually 4 to 6 weeks.
