What the Hawker 900XP is like

Winglet-equipped evolution of the Hawker 800 series with upgraded Honeywell TFE731-50R engines, offering the line's signature fully stand-up, flat-floor cabin in an 8-seat double-club layout with an enclosed lavatory. Its roughly 2,900 nm range handles US transcontinental trips nonstop in favorable conditions and delivers better hot-and-high and fuel performance than the 800XP/850XP.

Where the Hawker 900XP flies nonstop

Great-circle distances between business aviation airports, against its 2,930 nm range. We mark a route near the limit once it uses more than 85 percent of the published range, because a full cabin or a headwind can turn it into a fuel stop.

Time at cruise leaves out taxi, climb, descent and the day’s winds, so a real block time runs longer.

Questions

Hawker 900XP: charter questions

Typically 8 in charter configuration. Cabin layouts differ from one aircraft to the next, so ask the operator for the seat map of the exact aircraft you are quoted, and how many of the seats convert to beds if you fly overnight.
About 2,930 nautical miles (5,426 km, 3,372 statute miles), or roughly 7 hours at its typical cruise speed of 430 knots. That is the published figure, which assumes a light load, calm winds and standard fuel reserves: a full cabin, heavy bags, headwinds or a cold-weather alternate airport all cut it.
It cruises around 430 knots, about 495 mph or 796 km/h. Block time on a real trip adds taxi, climb, descent and the day’s winds.
Yes, on paper. Los Angeles to Honolulu is about 2,217 nautical miles, within the Hawker 900XP’s 2,930, and takes roughly 5 hours at cruise speed before taxi, climb and winds. London to Dubai (2,978 nm) is beyond it and needs a fuel stop. The operator confirms it for your passengers, bags and date.
A midsize jet. Taller cabins and longer legs than a light jet, for mid-length domestic trips. Comparable aircraft in our catalog: Gulfstream G150, Cessna Citation Latitude, Hawker 800XP and Learjet 60.
A charter is priced per trip, not per seat: the route, dates, repositioning of the aircraft, overnight crew costs and fees all go into the quote, so we quote the trip rather than publish one figure. Our guide to private jet costs has dated price ranges by aircraft size, and our charter desk quotes this aircraft and its alternatives for your dates.
