Hourly figures are US charter-market estimates for comparison, not quotes. Actual pricing depends on operator, date, positioning and airport fees.
Where they can go
This class typically needs about 6,500 ft of runway at mid weights. Against the 135 airports we hold real runway data for: 95 can take it, 40 cannot. That is the constraint most fleet guides leave out.
Runway requirement is typical for the class, not a manufacturer limit — temperature, elevation and payload move it, and dispatch checks the actual field for your date.
Other classes
Dispatch will tell you honestly if a smaller cabin does the job for less.
Good to know
Rates for this class vary too much by operator, aircraft age and configuration for a single published figure to be honest. Dispatch sends a fixed all-in quote for your actual route and dates, usually within 30 minutes.
4,300–7,700 nautical miles depending on the type. The longest-legged here is the Airbus ACJ340-300 at 7,700 nm. Real range drops with headwind, a full cabin and hot or high airports, so we plan the fuel stop rather than discover it.
30–50 in normal charter layouts. Baggage is usually the real constraint before seats. The roomiest cabin here is the Airbus ACJ320 at 91.0 ft.
This class typically needs around 6,500 ft of runway at mid weights. Measured against the 135 airports we hold real runway data for, 95 can take it and 40 cannot. Temperature, field elevation and payload all move that figure, so dispatch checks the actual airport against your date before confirming.
Cabin volume and range, mostly — and the hourly rate that comes with them. A bigger cabin buys you stand-up height, a proper lavatory and longer legs without a fuel stop. If your route is short and the group is small, paying for the bigger cabin buys comfort rather than capability, and dispatch will say so.
