What the midsize jet class is for

A midsize jet seats a full party in a stand up cabin and reaches around two to three thousand miles, enough for most domestic routes nonstop and shorter international hops. Many still use shorter runways that constrain heavier aircraft.

This class is the natural step up when a light jet runs short on cabin or range. For ocean crossings or the longest domestic trips a super midsize or heavy jet is a better fit. Specific figures vary by aircraft, so confirm the type at quote.

Per flight hour, varies with availability and routing

Charter is quoted by the trip rather than the hour. A firm quote reflects the actual routing, any repositioning of the aircraft, landing and handling fees, crew expenses, applicable taxes, and the specific aircraft offered on your dates. Treat the hourly band above as a planning guide only and confirm the all in price before you book.

Before you book

How to vet the flight

Ask whether you are dealing with the operator that holds the air operator certificate for the aircraft or with a broker arranging the flight on your behalf. Both can serve you well, but you should know which one you are talking to and who carries the operational responsibility.

Confirm the operator safety rating and insurance, the tail number, age and cabin configuration of the actual aircraft on offer, and exactly what the quote includes. A reputable partner will answer all of this in writing before you commit. Send us your dates and we will return a clear comparison.
