Overview

What counts as a 10 seater private jet

Which private jet seats 10 people?

The Bombardier Challenger 350, Bombardier Challenger 605, Dassault Falcon 2000 and Embraer Praetor 600 are the 10-seat jets you will most often be offered in the US. Jets like these cost about $11,786 to $18,500 per flight hour to charter, depending on size, and from about $11.45 million to buy.

These are typical passenger seats for each model, not the certified maximum. Pilots and cabin crew sit separately.

4 models on the US Part 135 charter list seat 10 passengers; together they make up 755 aircraft.

Seats are not the only limit. Bags, fuel and runway length all count: a full 10-seat cabin on a long or hot-weather leg may need a fuel stop. If your group fills every seat, look at a 12 passenger private jet.

Charter is priced for the whole aircraft by the flight hour: about $11,786 to $13,027 for a super-midsize jet in the US. Tell us the route and we confirm an aircraft and price from Part 135 operators.

To charter, you pay by the flight hour, not for the seats: about $11,786 to $18,500 per hour for jets like these in the US, depending on size, before federal excise tax, positioning and airport charges. An empty seat costs the same as a full one, so price the trip for the whole aircraft.
