Where it can actually go
A heavy jet 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
Typical US charter rates run $6,000–$7,800 per flight hour, so a two-hour leg lands around $12,000–$15,600 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.
13 in the normal charter layout and up to 14 in a high-density configuration. Baggage is the usual real constraint: 286 cubic feet, roughly 71 large cases with soft bags on top.
3,900 nautical miles (4,488 statute miles) at a 447 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 heavy jet 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.
