Fuel burn and CO2
The Hawker 800XP burns about 291 US gallons (881 kg) of jet fuel an hour, which puts out about 2.8 tonnes of CO2. Sustainable aviation fuel, where the departure airport has it, cuts the lifecycle figure.
| Flight | Fuel | CO2 |
|---|---|---|
| 1 flight hour | 880 kg | 2.8 tonnes |
| 3 flight hours | 2,640 kg | 8.4 tonnes |
| 8 flight hours | 7,050 kg | 22.3 tonnes |
Average block figures; real burn depends on weight, altitude and winds. Fuel at 0.8 kg per litre.

Hawker 800XP interior and cabin layout
Nearly every 800XP seats 8 passengers in one of two layouts: a club of four at the front with a three-place divan opposite a single seat at the back, or two clubs of four. The divan layout is the most common. On some aircraft the toilet seat has a seat belt and can take a ninth passenger. Owners have refitted many of these aircraft, so we confirm the exact seat map and Wi-Fi with each quote. The layouts below come from listings of aircraft offered for sale.
Cabin layouts
- Four-place club
- Forward galley by the entry door
- Three-place divan on the right, removable on this aircraft
- Forward-facing seat opposite
- Enclosed aft lavatory with a belted seat behind
- Four-place club with fold-out tables
- Forward galley and forward closet
- Second four-place club with fold-out tables
- Aft lavatory with a belted seat that can take a ninth passenger
- Aft closet
How big is the cabin?
5 ft 9 in (1.75 m) tall and 6 ft 0 in (1.83 m) wide: most adults stoop slightly in the aisle. The cabin runs 21 ft 4 in (6.50 m), 551 cu ft in all.
Drawn to scale from the height and width; the figure is 1.80 m tall.
Cabin size
21 ft 4 in (6.50 m) long, 6 ft 0 in (1.83 m) wide and 5 ft 9 in (1.75 m) tall: 551 cu ft of cabin space.
Galley
A galley or refreshment center at the front of the cabin, by the entry door. One aircraft we checked has a 29 in galley with a microwave, and others list a microwave, a coffee maker and an ice bin.
Lavatories
One, at the back of the cabin, fully enclosed, with a sink. On some aircraft the toilet seat has a seat belt and counts as a ninth seat. On others it is not belted, so nobody sits there for take-off.
Wi-Fi and connectivity
Varies by aircraft, and many older aircraft have none. Listings show Gogo ATG C-1 and Avance L3 air-to-ground Wi-Fi, and Airshow moving maps. We confirm the system for your aircraft.
Baggage
48 cu ft, reachable in flight. Most aircraft also have a closet at the back of the cabin, and some have extra storage at the front opposite the galley. The 800XPi from 2005 has a bigger aft baggage area.
Cabin altitude
7,500 ft at 41,000 ft. A lower cabin altitude means less fatigue and better sleep on long flights.
Cabin updates
A cabin 21 ft 4 in long, 6 ft wide and 5 ft 9 in tall, with 551 cu ft of space. Fully adjustable seats that swivel. Cabin altitude of 7,500 ft at 41,000 ft. Honeywell Primus II flight deck on earlier aircraft and Collins Pro Line 21 on later ones. Winglets added after delivery on some aircraft, such as Aviation Partners blended winglets.

How much does a Hawker 800XP cost?
A new Hawker 800XP listed at about $12.9 million in 2005. Production has ended, so most buyers look at pre-owned aircraft. Owning one also means paying to fly and maintain it, which is why most people who fly a few times a year charter instead.

December 2020
A Hawker 800XP (N412JA) landed hard at Republic Airport, Farmingdale, New York, at night in fog. The first officer was seriously hurt and the captain slightly hurt. The NTSB found the crew waited too long to go around after the approach became unstable.
February 2022
A Hawker 800XP (N99AP) failed to lift off at Aspen, Colorado, and ran off the end of the runway into snow after the captain aborted the take-off. Nobody was hurt. The NTSB found the crew took off with a tailwind above the 10 kt limit, relying on a single instant wind reading.
October 2025
A Hawker 800XP (XA-JMR) crashed near Bath Township, Michigan, on a test flight after seven months of maintenance, killing all three on board. The crew were doing a required stall test themselves. The NTSB preliminary report says the investigation is ongoing.
