What to Expect from a Midsize Jet

Midsize jets are the step where the cabin starts to feel like a room rather than a car. Most have about 5 ft 8 in of headroom, a refreshment center and an enclosed lavatory, and they seat seven to nine.

They fly about 2,000 to 2,700 nautical miles nonstop, so they cover most of the country from the East Coast to the Rockies and from the Midwest to the Caribbean.

Best For

  • Trips of two to four and a half hours, such as New York to Aspen with a stop, or Chicago to Miami nonstop
  • Six to eight passengers with luggage
  • Business travelers who want to work comfortably on the way

Keep in Mind

  • Many midsize cabins are just short of stand-up height, apart from newer models like the Citation Latitude.
  • For nonstop coast-to-coast flights you need a super-midsize or larger.

Midsize Jet Charter Questions

How much does it cost to charter a midsize jet?

Midsize jets typically run $4,800 to $6,000 per flight hour, and operators bill at least 3 hours for each day you fly. For example, Los Angeles to Aspen estimates at $16,600 to $21,500 one way before taxes and fees. Use the calculator above for your exact trip.

How far can a midsize jet fly nonstop?

Plan on about 2,000 nautical miles (2,302 statute miles) with passengers and fuel reserves. Winds, weather and airport altitude can reduce that.

Can I stand up in a midsize jet?

In most, not quite. Headroom is about 5 ft 8 in. The Citation Latitude has a 6-foot flat-floor cabin, and super-midsize jets are the first class where standing is the norm.

Is a midsize jet worth it over a light jet?

For trips over about two hours or more than five passengers, usually yes. The extra headroom, galley and lavatory make a big difference on longer legs.
