WHO SHOULD CHARTER THIS
Why choose the Bombardier Learjet 40XR?
The right client profile for the 40XR: 6 passengers, missions inside its 1,860 nm range, and routes where the light jet cabin size is the sweet spot between cost and comfort.
- Higher cruise altitude than 45XR
- Lower hourly cost than midsize
- Same Honeywell Primus 1000 avionics
RANGE & LIMITATIONS
What the 40XR can — and can't — do
Non-stop range
1,860 nm with typical payload. Missions beyond this figure require a technical fuel stop — expect 30–45 minutes on the ground and a modest re-quote. On strong headwinds or full-cabin days the practical range trims by 5–10%.
Runway requirement
Balanced-field length around 4,150 ft. Rules out very short-strip airfields (Courchevel, Lugano, London City steep-approach) unless the airframe is specifically certified — our ops team validates every airport pairing before we confirm the quote.
Payload & baggage
50 cu ft of hold space with 6 passengers. Ski, golf and dive equipment fit for most parties; larger groups with full luggage should size up one category to preserve the range figure above.
