What is a light jet?
A light jet seats 4 to 8 and flies about 1,100 to 2,100 nm, which covers most trips of up to three hours. The class includes very light jets under 10,000 lb, such as the Embraer Phenom 100 and HondaJet, and larger light jets such as the Cessna Citation CJ series, Embraer Phenom 300 and Pilatus PC-24.
Light jets are the cheapest jets to charter and reach smaller airports that bigger jets cannot use. The cabin is too low to stand in and the lavatory is small, so they suit short trips.

What it is like inside a light jet
How big is the cabin?
4 ft 11 in (1.50 m) tall and 5 ft 1 in (1.55 m) wide: most adults stoop slightly in the aisle. The cabin runs 17 ft 2 in (5.23 m).
Drawn to scale from the height and width; the figure is 1.80 m tall.
Drawn for the Embraer Phenom 300E, the most chartered light jet in Mexico whose cabin size we hold. Other models are listed with their cabin height above.

One way, flight time only: the quote adds positioning, airport charges and IVA where it applies, and airport fees. Headwinds or a full cabin can add a fuel stop on the longest routes.
Is a light jet right for your trip?
Up to about 3 hours with 2 to 6 people: the best value jet.
More than 6 people, or golf bags and skis: a midsize jet.
Very short hops or small airstrips: a turboprop can cost less again.
If a fully enclosed lavatory matters, say so: we confirm it for the aircraft.
