Frequently asked about Premier 1 charter
- How far can the Premier 1 fly?
- The Premier 1 has a published maximum range of 1,380 nautical miles (about 1,588 statute miles). On paper that covers a trip like New York (TEB) to Palm Beach (PBI), about 900 nm, without a fuel stop. Headwinds, passenger and baggage weight, weather and runway length all reduce real range, so the operator confirms the routing and any fuel stop on your quote.
- How many seats does the Premier 1 have?
- The Premier 1 has 6 seats. Cabin layouts differ between aircraft, so the seat count of the specific aircraft offered is confirmed on your quote.
- How much does it cost to charter a Premier 1?
- Premier 1 charter pricing varies by route, time to departure, and operator. Empty leg pricing on the Premier 1 is typically 25 to 75% below a comparable full charter, and operators can set a listing's price to step down as departure approaches. A full on-demand charter on the same aircraft is the right product for fixed-date trips.
- Which operators fly the Premier 1?
- 1 certified charter operator currently flies the Premier 1 on SkyAccess, with 1 active aircraft on the certificate. Each operator's profile lists the specific tail numbers, year of manufacture, base location, and current FAA registration status.
- Are there Premier 1 empty leg flights available?
- SkyAccess currently has 2 upcoming Premier 1 empty leg flights published across partner operators. Inventory turns over hourly as operators publish new positioning legs and existing legs are booked. Set a saved-search alert on the model to be notified when new Premier 1 empty legs appear.
- Is the Premier 1 a safe aircraft to charter?
- The Premier 1 is a type-certificated airframe. Safety at the trip level depends on the operator, not the airframe model. Every operator on SkyAccess holds an active air carrier certificate (Part 135 in the U.S., or the equivalent authority abroad), and many carry additional third-party audits (ARGUS, Wyvern, IS-BAO). Check the operator's profile for their specific certification and audit history.
