What counts as a 20 passenger private jet
The Gulfstream G550 is the jet you will most often be offered in Switzerland for 19 or more passengers. Heavy jets like these cost about CHF 12,420 to CHF 15,240 per flight hour to charter, and from about $15 million to buy.
These are typical passenger seats for each model, not the certified maximum. Pilots and cabin crew sit separately.
One model on the Swiss FOCA list of AOC holders seats 19 or more passengers; it makes up 2 aircraft.
Seats are not the only limit. Bags, fuel and runway length all count: a full cabin on a long or hot-weather leg may need a fuel stop.
Charter is priced for the whole aircraft by the flight hour: about CHF 12,420 to CHF 15,240 for a heavy jet in Switzerland. Tell us the route and we confirm an aircraft and price from licensed operators in Switzerland.
Every 20 passenger private jet on charter in Switzerland
Seats are typical passenger seating for each model; "up to" figures are the published maximum. Counts are aircraft flown by operators on the Swiss FOCA list of AOC holders, from each operator's published fleet. Purpose-built business jets are certified for at most 19 passengers, so larger groups fly airliners or airliner-based VIP jets on charter; ask the desk.
