Fly Peak TodayHeavy Jet Questions, Answered
How many passengers does a heavy jet seat?
Heavy jets seat 10 to 19 depending on configuration, with 12 to 14 the common working number. Cabins divide into distinct living zones: a club section for work, a dining or conference group, and an aft cabin that converts for rest. A full group travels without anyone negotiating for space.
How far can a heavy jet fly nonstop?
This is the class built for oceans. Modern ultra-long-range heavies cover 6,000 to 7,700 nautical miles; the Gulfstream G700 we feature sits at the top of that band, holding 14-plus-hour legs nonstop. New York to the Middle East, the West Coast to Asia and any transatlantic pairing are routine.
What does a heavy jet charter cost?
In recent months, all-in heavy jet rates have typically run from about $10,000 to $15,000-plus per flight hour depending on aircraft, routing and season. Peak quotes one fixed, all-inclusive number per trip: aircraft, crew, fuel, handling fees and catering, with no membership fee attached.
What crew comes with a heavy jet?
Two pilots always, and on virtually every heavy jet charter a trained cabin attendant as well, managing meal service, the cabin and everything in between. On long international legs, augmented flight crews keep duty times legal without breaking your schedule. It is the closest charter comes to a flagship airline crew, minus the airline.
Can I actually sleep on board?
Yes. Heavy jet cabins convert divans and club seats into flat berths, and the newest aircraft, including the G700, offer a dedicated rear stateroom. Pair that with cabin altitudes among the lowest in aviation and an overnight crossing becomes a night of sleep rather than a red-eye to recover from.
Does Peak handle international permits and customs?
Yes. Overflight and landing permits, customs and immigration coordination, international handling and catering are arranged as part of the trip, through operators vetted on ARGUS TripCheq and Wyvern data. You see one all-inclusive quote and one itinerary. We would rather over-verify than leave you wondering.
