Light Jet
The light jet is the most economical choice for short to medium range trips for up to 7 passengers and a light baggage load. You can expect a light jet travel up to 1,500 miles or between 3 and 4 hours non-stop. These aircraft come with curtained, partial, or full lavatories and most comfortably accommodate four to seven passengers. Light jets are capable of landing at airports with shorter runways providing you access to the closest airport to your destination.
Mid-size Jet
The midsize jet offers added range and performance to the light jet class, without incurring the costs of a heavy jet. This aircraft class can accommodate up to 9 passengers, and is optimal for coast to coast travel with a range from 2,000-3,000 miles- allowing for longer trips without the need to refuel. Most mid-size jets provide a stand up cabin and have luxury amenities for your flight.
Large Jet
The ultimate in private jet travel, the larger cabin aircraft allows luxury amenities, comfort, faster trips, and nonstop travel. With the capability of accommodating ten to eighteen passengers, continuous travel up to 6,200 miles at speeds between 480 and 560 miles per hour, large cabin jets are the way to go for long-distance trips for larger groups. These jets also have external storage compartments to handle larger baggage needs.
