Midsize jet charter
Midsize jets add what light jets give up: a stand-up cabin, a proper enclosed lavatory and coast-to-coast-with-one-stop range — often nonstop on pairs like New York–Dallas or Chicago–Palm Beach. The sweet spot for four-hour missions when comfort matters but a large jet would be overkill.
Every model below is a business jet in the midsize jet class: 7–8 passengers, about 2,300 nm of range and $3,300–$4,600 per flight hour in charter.
Indicative hourly rates before positioning, fees and taxes (including the 7.5% US federal excise tax); not an offer.
