Light & Super Light Jet
Light and Super Light Jets are the most popular and efficient charter aircraft categories, offering the comfort and capabilities of a Jet for shorter trips generally within or between regions. The Super Light Category offers improvements in range and or speed, as a hybrid of Light Jet and Mid-Sized Jet Capabilities possible because of advances in aircraft technology.
The Light Jet category can fly non-stop between cities in the US, Europe and to and from the US to the Caribbean and Central America. Typical routes from New York to Florida, Chicago, Atlanta or Los Angeles to Seattle and Aspen.
This category's performance allows the aircraft to land at the smaller regional and business airports, getting passengers very close to the most popular business and pleasure destinations.
Light Jets provide passengers with room to relax, converse, and work with cabin arrangements ranging from 6-8 passengers.
Light Jets are commonly equipped with self-serve refreshment facilities, good storage space for luggage, on board enclosed lavatories. Baggage compartments generally cannot be accessed in flight but offer adequate storage space for standard baggage.
