EXPERT VERDICT

The ACJ330neo is the stronger all-rounder, but the ACJ319 still wins where it counts for the right mission.

The ACJ319 pulls ahead on airport access; the ACJ330neo answers with range / non-stop reach, cabin comfort, group capacity and speed & block time. Both sit in the vip airliner class, so charter pricing is broadly aligned — let the use case (range, group size, airport pair) drive the final call.

Range / non-stop reach

ACJ330neo

9,400 nm of range — the better choice for transcontinental and intercontinental missions.

Cabin comfort

ACJ330neo

Taller and/or wider cabin (8'4" × 17'4") — better for long flights and stand-up movement.

Group capacity

ACJ330neo

Seats up to 25 — the right pick when the manifest grows.

Airport access

ACJ319

Shorter 6,500 ft balanced-field requirement — opens up restricted alpine, island and city-adjacent airfields.

Speed & block time

ACJ330neo

Cruise of Mach 0.86 — shaves meaningful minutes off every long leg.
