Nantucket Learjet 70 Charter

Light jets carry more Nantucket charter than any other category: enough cabin for a small group, and easy range across the Northeast.

Bombardier introduced the Learjet 70 in 2013. It is flown by a crew of 2. The type carries 6 passengers, cruises at 464 knots, tops out at 51,000 feet, covers 1,873 nautical miles and holds 65 cubic feet of baggage.

Why the Learjet 70 Fits Nantucket

Most Nantucket light jet trips leave from Nantucket Memorial (KACK), which handles the bulk of the island’s charter traffic.

A published range of 1,873 nautical miles brings Miami, Naples, Florida, Dallas and Houston within reach of Nantucket, before the operator applies reserves and routing for the day.

July and August are the island’s peak, and on a busy weekend it is ramp and parking space rather than aircraft availability that runs out first. The tower runs to ten at night in summer and nine through the winter.

The runway required on the day is a performance calculation the operator makes for that aircraft, at that weight, in the conditions on your date, so we confirm it with them for your specific trip.

Vetting Behind Every Trip

Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:

  • FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
  • Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
  • Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
  • Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.

Charter Pricing Reference

Industry hourly rates for the Learjet 70 run $3,800 to $5,200 per hour as of 9/2026. Actual quotes vary by operator, routing, positioning, and date.

As a rough guide, Nantucket to Houston is about 1,409 nautical miles, which is roughly 3.0 to 3.5 hours of flight time at this aircraft’s cruise speed before winds and routing are applied.
