Turboprops

Turboprops are powered by turbine engines that drive propellers. They're built for efficiency and access, not headlines. With a private turboprop charter, you can use smaller airports closer to your Destination, board quickly, and keep the day on your schedule.

Quick Facts for your Turboprop flight

• Best for: Turboprops are ideal for four to eight travelers who need short-runway access and regional efficiency.
• Range: Nonstop reach is approximately 900 to 2,100 miles. Boston to Charlotte is about 720 miles and is a typical regional mission.
• Luggage: Plan on six to eight roller bags, golf clubs, and a few soft duffels. Soft-sided luggage packs best, and capacity varies by aircraft.
• Cabin: Most cabin-class turboprops are pressurized and comfortable for business or leisure.
• Seating and layout: A four-seat club with additional forward-facing seats is common.
• Speed: Typical cruise speed is 280 to 330 mph. Dallas to Houston is about one hour, and Seattle to Spokane about one hour.
• Quick recommendation: Choose a turboprop when short fields and close-in airports save time. Step up to a light jet when top-end cruise speed on longer legs matters most.

Is a Turboprop Right for My Trip?

Choose a turboprop when you're flying a small group on short to medium routes. If your plan includes short runways, island strips, or smaller towns, turboprops shine. They climb quickly, cruise efficiently, and turn fast on the ramp. If you need higher cruise speeds or longer nonstop legs, consider a light jet. For very short hops with minimal baggage, a piston aircraft can be even more budget-friendly. When there's no runway at all, a helicopter is the right tool. We'll help you match the aircraft to the mission.

Private Turboprop Charter: When Turboprops Make the Most Sense

Book turboprops for city-to-city business calls, plant or site visits, and multi-stop days. You'll skip hubs and drive times, landing closer to where you actually need to be. Leisure travelers benefit too. Turboprops link major airports to ski resorts, lakes, vineyards, and coastal towns in a single lift. Short taxi times and simple boarding make the day feel easy.

Best Missions for Turboprops: Short Fields, Regional Routes & Multi-Stop Itineraries

Short-field performance is a core strength. Many turboprops can use runways that are off-limits to most jets, opening convenient airfields near business districts and resorts. They're also ideal for two- or three-stop days. You can meet in the morning, tour a site after lunch, and still get home for dinner. The airplane waits for you, not the other way around.

How Much Luggage Can You Bring on a Charter Turboprop?

Plan for soft-sided bags and a few hard cases. Most turboprops handle roller bags, golf clubs, skis, and strollers—though door sizes and compartments vary by model. Tell us early about odd-shaped items or camera gear so we can confirm fit. Weight and balance matter more from short runways or on hot days. We'll plan passengers, fuel, and bags carefully. If needed, we'll add a quick fuel stop or recommend a slightly larger aircraft.

Airports, Runway Access & Logistics for Turboprops

Turboprops unlock smaller, quieter airports with shorter runways. That usually means shorter drives, easier parking, and faster turns. You'll use private terminals, step out of the car, and board in minutes. We'll select the best airfields for performance, weather, and ground access, then coordinate FBO services, catering, and transportation. The result is a smooth, predictable day—even when plans change.
