Fuel burn and CO2
The King Air 360 burns about 136 US gallons (412 kg) of jet fuel an hour, which puts out about 1.3 tonnes of CO2. Sustainable aviation fuel, where the departure airport has it, cuts the lifecycle figure.
| Flight | Fuel | CO2 |
|---|---|---|
| 1 flight hour | 410 kg | 1.3 tonnes |
| 3 flight hours | 1,240 kg | 3.9 tonnes |
| 8 flight hours | 3,290 kg | 10.4 tonnes |
Average block figures; real burn depends on weight, altitude and winds. Fuel at 0.8 kg per litre.

King Air 360 interior and cabin layout
Most King Air 350s, 350is and 360s are flown as executive aircraft with eight seats in two clubs of four, a refreshment center at the front and a private lavatory at the back with a belted seat. That belted seat lets the cabin carry a ninth passenger. Every aircraft is fitted out by its owner, so we confirm the exact seat map and Wi-Fi with each quote. The layouts below come from specification sheets of aircraft offered for sale.
Inside the King Air 360
Cabin layouts
- Four-place club with executive writing tables on both sides that stow in the side walls
- Refreshment center at the front of the cabin
- Four-place club with executive writing tables on both sides
- Side-facing belted, electric-flushing lavatory seat behind a private divider, the ninth passenger place
- Four-place executive club with tables
- Commissary cabinet with coffee and ice storage, forward on the left
- Four-place executive club with tables, four tables with leather work surfaces in all
- Side-facing belted seat on the right, in a private electric-flushing lavatory with a padded partition and mirror
- 56 cu ft baggage area inside the cabin behind it
How big is the cabin?
4 ft 9 in (1.45 m) tall and 4 ft 6 in (1.37 m) wide: most adults stoop slightly in the aisle. The cabin runs 19 ft 6 in (5.94 m).
Drawn to scale from the height and width; the figure is 1.80 m tall.
Cabin size
19 ft 6 in (5.94 m) long, 4 ft 6 in (1.37 m) wide and 4 ft 9 in (1.45 m) tall.
Galley
A refreshment center or commissary cabinet at the front of the cabin, usually on the left, rather than a full galley. Sheets we checked list coffee and ice storage or a hot liquid dispenser. None lists an oven or a microwave.
Lavatories
One, at the back of the cabin, behind a divider, partition or sliding door. Every aircraft we checked has a belted, flushing toilet seat, usually side-facing on the right, so it counts as a passenger seat for take-off and landing.
Wi-Fi and connectivity
Varies by aircraft. Some 350s have Gogo air-to-ground Wi-Fi, which works over the US and Canada only. Textron offered Wi-Fi as an option on the 360. Many older aircraft have no passenger Wi-Fi. We confirm the system for your aircraft.
Baggage
71.3 cu ft and up to 1,150 lb on the King Air 360. On a 2009 King Air 350 this is split into 56 cu ft of storage inside the cabin behind the lavatory, which you can reach in flight, and 16 cu ft in the wing lockers.
Cabin altitude
5,960 ft at 27,000 ft. A lower cabin altitude means less fatigue and better sleep on long flights.
Cabin updates
Collins Pro Line Fusion flight deck with three 14 in touchscreens on the 360, and an IS&S ThrustSense autothrottle with overtorque and overtemperature protection. Digital pressurization on the 360 gives a cabin altitude of 5,960 ft at 27,000 ft, about 10 percent lower than the 350. The 350i cut cabin noise by 4 dB to 78 dB and added fold-out tables at all eight seats. Power outlets, USB charging and lighted cupholders are standard on the 360.

How much does a King Air 360 cost?
A new King Air 360 listed at about $8.4 million in 2024. Owning one also means paying to fly and maintain it, which is why most people who fly a few times a year charter instead.

King Air 360 charter cost per hour in France (2026)
You pay for flight time, not the aircraft. Turboprops like the King Air 360 charter at about €3k to €4.5k per flight hour; the quote adds positioning, crew overnights, airport charges and taxes for your exact trip.
Turboprops, per flight hour
What moves the price
- Positioning: one-way trips usually pay for the empty flight home.
- Crew overnights and waiting days on multi-day trips.
- Airport and handling fees, plus the solidarity tax and any VAT.
- Empty legs can cut the price sharply when one matches your dates.
Charter or own?
Owning a King Air 360 costs about €259,000 a year before it flies (crew, hangar, insurance), plus about €1,800 for every flight hour. At the hours most owners fly, chartering costs less per hour, and you pay nothing when you do not fly.
| You fly | Owning (per hour) | Charter in France (per hour) |
|---|---|---|
| 50 hours a year | €7,000 per hour | €3k to €4.5k per hour |
| 100 hours a year | €4,400 per hour | €3k to €4.5k per hour |

Where the King Air 360 can land
A large twin turboprop that uses runways most small jets cannot, and some versions can use unpaved strips.
Runway needed
About 3,300 ft to take off at maximum weight at sea level on a dry paved runway, and about 2,692 ft to land. Hot or high airports need more.
Unpaved strips
The 350ER is approved to operate from dirt, grass and gravel strips. It has stronger landing gear with larger tires, Kevlar panels under the inner wings and engine inertial separators. We check the approvals of the exact aircraft before we quote.
Hot and high
On the 350ER spec sheet, the balanced field length grows from 4,056 ft at sea level and 15 C to 7,675 ft at 5,000 ft and 25 C.

King Air 360 safety record
Events from official investigations and safety databases. We also check the record of the exact aircraft and operator before we book.
June 2019
A King Air 350 (N534FF) crashed into a hangar just after take-off from Addison, Texas. All 10 people on board died. The NTSB found that the left engine lost thrust for a reason it could not determine, and that the pilot did not keep control or follow the engine failure procedure.
January 2022
A Royal Canadian Air Force King Air 350 (C-GEAS) yawed and dropped a wing as the power was cut to land at Thunder Bay, Ontario, then slid into the snow beside the runway. The crew of three got out, one with a minor injury. Investigators found that a part in the left propeller's governing system most likely did not work normally.
