New private jet flight time calculator for charter, jet card flyers

The private jet flight time calculator enables charter and jet card flyers to quickly get nonstop flight times from convenient airports.

A new free private jet flight time calculator from Private Jet Card Comparisons is specifically designed for private jet charter flyers, executive assistants, and others who support charter and jet card flyers.

It enables users to quickly calculate flight times for different private aircraft categories that best fit their needs.

It also highlights categories with nonstop capability.

More convenient regional airports are highlighted.

Chief Operating Officer Brett Berkley noted, “We often see charter flyers who look at manufacturer websites showing maximum range and speeds that are not generally attained for charter flights.”

He continued, “Flyers also are often unaware that there are more convenient airports they can use.”

Berkley added, “This free resource is designed to be a helpful tool for private jet charter flyers.”

Research from Private Jet Card Comparisons shows the top reason for using private aviation is time savings.

Berkley noted, “Our Private Jet Charter Flight Time Calculator enables users to see airports that are closer to where they are leaving from and those that are more convenient to their final destination.”

Realistic Aircraft Range

The calculator covers seven aircraft categories.

Included are very light jets, light jets, midsize jets, super-midsize jets, large cabin jets, and ultra-long-range jets.

There are also turboprops.

It uses realistic operational ranges to alert users to potential fuel stops and routes that exceed overwater range limits.

It also accounts for typical runway length requirements by aircraft category.

The calculator adjusts for seasonal winds.

Flight times reflect the fuel-efficient cruise speeds typical of charter operations.

Private jet owners may operate at higher speeds that burn more fuel.

Results include estimated flight time, nautical and statute miles, time zone information for both airports, and a side-by-side comparison across all aircraft categories.

It is a useful tool for flyers comparing programs with fixed hourly rates.

It also compares the time difference between turboprop and jet aircraft.

Berkley added, “Most private jet flight time calculators are targeted to owners who fly under different rules and know the specific airports.”

He says, “Our calculator is designed for the private charter, jet card, and membership program consumer.”

The calculator is accessible for free here.
