Most chartered
Phenom 100EV
The widest cabin in the class and the one operators keep on the line. Four passengers, jet speed, and a finish that feels a size up from its price.
Where private jet travel starts. Four seats, ninety minutes to two hours of comfortable range, and jet altitude above the weather — at a rate that sits within reach of a long turboprop leg.

Manufacturer figures are published maximums under ideal conditions. Charter figures reflect how these aircraft are actually configured and flown — full fuel with four to five passengers, IFR reserves, and real-world runway margins. Your advisor confirms the exact tail's numbers before you sign.

Call an advisor →Four is the honest answer for every aircraft on this page, and three is more comfortable in an Eclipse. The published maximum counts a seat next to the pilot and, on some tails, the belted lavatory seat. If your group is five or six, a light jet costs less than the discomfort.
Plan on three soft bags in a Phenom 100EV or Mustang and two in an Eclipse. Golf clubs fit in the Phenom and HondaJet; skis usually do not. Send us the bag list and we size the aircraft to it rather than surprising you at the FBO.
The HondaJet Elite II has an enclosed aft lavatory with a door. The Phenom 100EV and Mustang use a curtained aft seat. The Vision Jet and Eclipse have none. On anything over ninety minutes we default to the first two unless you tell us otherwise.
Above about 400 nm, usually yes: you cruise higher, above most weather, and arrive twenty to forty minutes sooner for a few hundred dollars an hour more. Below that the turboprop wins on cost and often on runway access.
Yes. The Vision Jet flies commercially under Part 135 with the same operator audits and crew standards as a twin. Some corporate travel policies still exclude single-engine aircraft — tell us if yours does and we quote twins only.
Age, interior condition, crew experience, home base, and whether the leg positions empty all move the number. That is why we show a market band, not a fixed rate — and why the quote itemises every line.
