Four quiet engines and a steep-approach certification let it use city-centre and short-runway airports — London City and Lugano among them — that other 100-seat jets cannot. We quote a fixed all-in price before you commit.

Where it can actually go
A airliner typically needs around 6,000 ft of runway at mid weights. Measured against the 135 airports we hold real runway data for: 103 can take it, 32 cannot. Out of reach on this list: Morristown Municipal Airport (MMU, 5,998 ft), Lyon-Bron Airport (LYN, 5,971 ft), Napa County Airport (APC, 5,930 ft). That is the constraint most spec sheets leave out.

Good to know
We do not publish an estimated hourly rate for the Avro RJ100: charter pricing for this type varies too much by operator, age and configuration for a single figure to be honest. Dispatch sends a fixed all-in quote for your actual route and dates, usually within 30 minutes.
100 in the normal charter layout and up to 112 in a high-density configuration. Baggage volume varies by configuration on this type — dispatch checks the actual aircraft before confirming.
1,800 nautical miles (2,071 statute miles) at a 404 kt cruise. Real range drops with headwind, full seats and hot high airports, so we plan the fuel stop rather than discover it.
As a airliner it typically needs about 6,000 ft of runway at mid weights. Across the 135 airports we hold runway data for, 103 are long enough and 32 are not — dispatch checks the actual field against your date, temperature and payload before confirming.
