Charter a Cessna 406 for your next flight
The Cessna 406 is a Turboprop that started rolling off the factory floor in 1983 and has been a smart aircraft choice with private jet fliers ever since. Because the Cessna 406 is a Turboprop, it is specifically designed for shorter trips and better access to smaller, regional airfields.

Similar to many of the aircraft in its category, the Cessna 406 can accommodate as many as 12 passengers in a typical layout. The interior of the aircraft measures 39.4 feet long and 4.7 feet wide, with roughly 15.3 feet of room from floor to ceiling.
