Where it can actually go
A light jet typically needs around 4,500 ft of runway at mid weights. Measured against the 135 airports we hold real runway data for: 135 can take it, 0 cannot. That is the constraint most spec sheets leave out.

Good to know
We do not publish an estimated hourly rate for the Beechcraft Premier I / IA: charter pricing for this type varies too much by operator, age and configuration for a single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.
6 in the normal charter layout and up to 7 in a high-density configuration. Baggage volume varies by configuration on this type — dispatch checks the actual aircraft before confirming.
830 nautical miles (955 statute miles) at a 454 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 light jet it typically needs about 4,500 ft of runway at mid weights. Across the 135 airports we hold runway data for, 135 are long enough and 0 are not — dispatch checks the actual field against your date, temperature and payload before confirming.
