If you’re in the market for a private jet, then you’re aware there are a wealth of options for your consideration. What may be more difficult to determine is which jet best serves your needs and budget. That’s why we’re sharing some excellent used aircraft options:
Learjet 45
At less than 3.5 million dollars, this aircraft is the best value for its cabin class. It has eight club seats, making it a good choice to entertain larger groups. And it’s a smart purchase in terms of both maintenance (typically less than similar jets) and performance, climbing to 41,000 feet in under twenty minutes. Couple that with a 2000-mile range and that makes this jet perfect for frequent intracontinental travelers.
Falcon 2000 EX EASy
This jet is worth consideration from those who frequently travel internationally. It offers a 4000-mile range and efficient fuel burn, saving you money even on long trips. And with a stand-up cabin, comfortable interior, and terrific amenities (especially the extensive baggage space), this might just be the most jet you can get for your money today.
Cessna CitationJet CJ3
If your search is focused in the smaller jet classes, the CJ3 is worth a look. It’s an economical option with predictable maintenance needs. It offers an 1800-mile range and good cargo and passenger capacity for its size. Overall, it’s a versatile aircraft for flyers who prioritize efficiency in their travel.
Gulfstream G550
With the G550, you’d be getting a $50 million aircraft for a fraction of the price (~$16 million). It also offers excellent long-range capabilities, making trips from the mainland U.S. to the Pacific Rim or almost all of Europe a breeze. The fuel burn is reasonable for its size, and it has a great interior with strong amenities. The G550 offers a nice cruise speed too.
Falcon 50EX
This is another good choice if value is one of your foremost considerations. Operating costs are reasonable and you’ll definitely get your money’s worth, as the Falcon 50EX has a large cabin, good range, and nice speed. This is the jet to buy if Hawaii is often on your itinerary.
