Joshua M here, first-time poster. I've been chartering planes for about three years now, spending roughly 6 figures annually, as I’m flying multiple times a month. The flights are typically 1.5 to 4 hours in duration, with Boston to Miami being the longest route I usually take.

I favor light to mid-size jets, even though I often travel alone.

Now that prices are softening, I think it’s a good time to consider buying. I’ve been getting a lot of mixed advice from brokers, sellers,...

We have hours with Sentient Jet and typically fly their Midsize jets -- Hawker 800, Citation XLS, Lear 60 etc. Usually only the XLS will work for us due to large luggage.

Can someone help with me with maximum weight for our trip combined with our routing?
I am not sure we will fit or be able to do non-stop due to pass/weight.
Last time we flew 6 pass + little less luggage and had to make a stop half way in South Carolina. I am thinking at least we will need to do this again.

Shawn M here, first time ever positing. I have been chartering planes for the past two years spending close to 7 figures a year in charter as I’m flying weekly - missions are anywhere between 1-3.5 hours (Los Angeles to Dallas being the furthest).

I prefer mid/heavy jets even though I usually fly alone.

I think it’s come time to make a purchase as prices start to fall. I’m a bit lost as brokers, sellers, pilots all tell me many different things. I thought a G200 was the move...
