Where it can actually go
A super-midsize jet typically needs around 5,500 ft of runway at mid weights. Measured against the 135 airports we hold real runway data for: 113 can take it, 22 cannot. Out of reach on this list: Annecy-Haute-Savoie-Mont Blanc Airport (NCY, 5,348 ft), Siegerland Airport (SGE, 5,315 ft), Augsburg Airport (AGB, 5,230 ft). That is the constraint most spec sheets leave out.

Good to know
Typical US charter rates run $5,400–$7,000 per flight hour, so a two-hour leg lands around $10,800–$14,000 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: 112 cubic feet, roughly 28 large cases with soft bags on top.
3,500 nautical miles (4,028 statute miles) at a 483 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 super-midsize jet it typically needs about 5,500 ft of runway at mid weights. Across the 135 airports we hold runway data for, 113 are long enough and 22 are not — dispatch checks the actual field against your date, temperature and payload before confirming.
