Where it can actually go
A midsize jet typically needs around 5,000 ft of runway at mid weights. Measured against the 135 airports we hold real runway data for: 125 can take it, 10 cannot. Out of reach on this list: London City Airport (LCY, 4,948 ft), Cuatro Vientos Airport (ECV, 4,921 ft), Pompano Beach Airpark (PPM, 4,918 ft). That is the constraint most spec sheets leave out.

Good to know
Typical US charter rates run $3,800–$5,000 per flight hour, so a two-hour leg lands around $7,600–$10,000 before positioning. These are market estimates, not quotes — the fixed all-in number depends on your dates, positioning and airport fees, and dispatch sends it within about 30 minutes.
8 in the normal charter layout and up to 12 in a high-density configuration. Baggage is the usual real constraint: 90 cubic feet, roughly 22 large cases with soft bags on top.
2,100 nautical miles (2,417 statute miles) at a 441 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 midsize jet it typically needs about 5,000 ft of runway at mid weights. Across the 135 airports we hold runway data for, 125 are long enough and 10 are not — dispatch checks the actual field against your date, temperature and payload before confirming.
