Aircraft
Turboprop aircraft combine the
low-cost advantages of the piston aircraft while sharing
some of the performance and cabin comfort advantages of light
jets. Turboprops are powered by turbine propeller engines.
With average cruising speeds of over 300 mph and an average
nonstop range above 1,000 miles, a turboprop can travel further,
faster and offer more comfort than piston aircraft while
keeping charter costs below those of jet aircraft. Popular
for short to mid-range flights, turboprops can access runways
that are often too short for jet aircraft.
Amenities often include: pressurized passenger cabins for
added comfort, safety and performance and a semi-private
lavatory. Baggage capacity is limited.

Light
jets are the entry-level jet class in the charter industry.
Light jets are the most economical choice for short to
mid-range trips.
With average cruising speeds of 440
mph and an average nonstop range of about 1,500 miles,
a light jet can travel further and faster than non-jet
aircraft while operating in and out of airports not accessible
by the major airlines.
Amenities often include: pressurized
passenger cabins for added comfort, safety and performance
and a semi-private lavatory.
Light jets have limited
baggage capacity and often cannot accommodate skis or
large golf bags.

Midsize Jet aircraft optimally blend comfort, performance
and economy for medium length flights.
With average cruising
speeds over 500 mph and a nonstop range of about 2,100
miles, a midsize jet can travel further, faster and with
more comfort then light jets while operating in and out
of airports not accessible by the major airlines.
Most
of the midsize jet aircraft have external baggage storage
and can accommodate a reasonable amount of baggage. However,
some aircraft such as the Hawker line of private jets
only have internal baggage storage and can pose problems
for skis or other bulky items. Most midsize jets offer
a private lavatory.
