Very light jets (VLJs) are ideal for short-to-medium-range and lightweight trips (under 10,000 pounds) due to their versatility and efficiency. Optimal for small groups of passengers, a VLJ can typically accommodate two to four people. These efficient aircraft combine jet cruising speeds with the ability to operate from smaller airports.

As their name suggests, light jets are quick, efficient, and perfect for flying with light cargo and up to 6 passengers. If your trip consists of traveling a relatively short or medium distance, this option should work for your travel needs. Light jets such as the Beechjet 400A, Citation Bravo, or Citation CJ1+ are capable of cruising up to 440 miles per hour for about 1,500 miles nonstop and can utilize small airports when taking off and landing.

If you’re looking for something more spacious than a light jet, super light jets are a step up. These aircraft offer more cabin space as well as larger baggage compartments. SLJs are suitable for short-to-medium-range travel and carry between seven and eight passengers. With an increased range from light jets and a bigger cabin space, SLJs are an efficient and economical choice. For a small increase in price, super light jets are capable of landing in smaller airports. These jets are a great way to travel, as they have additional accommodations and an extended range to ensure a safe and comfortable trip.

For medium-sized groups of 7 to 8 passengers, or for those executives who want more room to stretch out or carry more luggage, Paramount offers a range of midsize jets such as the Hawker 800XP, Challenger 300, or Citation X. These planes offer passengers a decent mix of economy and luxury.

Super midsize jets are an attractive middle ground between midsize jets and large jets. These are good for those who require more carrying capacity, speed, and range but don’t need a larger aircraft. Super midsize jets are exceptionally fast, quiet, and efficient, with the comfort of a large jet and the versatility of a midsize jet.

By prioritizing luxury and diverse amenity service for long-haul charter flights, large jets are the epitome of comfort and performance. Large jets travel faster and longer than their smaller counterparts, with average speeds of as high as 530 mph and average ranges of around 4,000 miles. These aircraft are perfect for those who want the premier option for private jet travel.

Whether traveling state to state or out of the country, ultra-long-range jets are capable of up to 11 hours of non-stop flight time, much longer than most aircraft. Ultra-long-range jets are ideal for longer trips and can comfortably seat between 12 and 19 passengers. These aircraft are usually configured with first-class seating, offering a luxurious experience for each passenger. Depending on the aircraft model, baggage compartments may hold up to 100 suitcases. Additional features on ultra-long-range jets may include a full bar, catering services, and private rooms.

The ultimate in convenience, luxury, and comfort, VIP Airliners, such as the Boeing BBJ, offer private jet clients an unparalleled array of choices for in-flight comfort. Being a home in the sky, these super-large aircraft can carry anywhere from 15 to 30 passengers, depending on the interior configuration. All VIP Airliners have ample room for luggage, oversized items, and limited cargo. Compared to most charter airliners, VIP Airliners can operate routes unable to be flown by their smaller counterparts and are frequently used for long-haul and international flights. Due to high operating costs, they are not recommended for short flights. Conveniences such as cabin attendants, sleeper beds, cabins, private suites, and showers are a few of the luxuries these aircraft have to offer.
