ROUTE INTELLIGENCE · AIRCRAFT RECOMMENDATION ENGINE
BEST VALUE
Super Midsize
The Bombardier Challenger 350 clears both runways and has range headroom on the 2,698 nm leg without stepping up into a larger, more expensive cabin — the lowest hourly cost that still handles this pair reliably.
Indicative all-in €28,500
FASTEST
Ultra Long Range
On 2,698 nm the Bombardier Global 5000 carries the highest cruise speed in the eligible short-list. The saving is roughly 32 minutes of block time against the smallest eligible class — worth it on a same-day return, marginal otherwise.
Indicative all-in €48,200

On Bermuda → Lisbon, aircraft positioning is the biggest lever on price today.
PRICE DRIVERS
Aircraft based off-route are repositioned to Bermuda before pickup — the shorter that leg, the more competitive the quote.
If the aircraft can't pick up a return charter from Lisbon, the empty repositioning leg is baked into your quote.
Landing, handling and ramp fees on BDA–LIS are set field by field — BDA and LIS each carry their own coordinated-airport surcharge profile.
Across 2,698 nm the fuel uplift is a bounded line item on BDA–LIS, not the driver of the quote.
Bermuda → Lisbon demand cycles pull the 2,698 nm sector off its low band on peak weeks.
Ramp capacity at LIS constrains the lift available for 2,698 nm inbounds from Bermuda — operators quote accordingly.
Weather rarely re-prices BDA–LIS beyond marginal fuel adjustments over 2,698 nm.
Slot coordination at LIS — peak-season Saturdays especially — forces earlier commitment on Bermuda departures and raises handling on BDA–LIS.
At 2,698 nm, BDA–LIS sits far inside a single crew duty period — no augmented crew cost.
Overnight parking at LIS is normally available and adds a defined ramp and handling fee to the BDA–LIS quote.
SAVING OPPORTUNITIES
Saving levers on Bermuda → Lisbon
If the aircraft is already positioned closer to another Bermuda-area field, using it reduces positioning cost and often trims 5–15% off the quote.
Alternative arrivals near LIS can trim handling and slot pressure on BDA–LIS — see the airport comparison above.
BDA ↔ LIS (2,698 nm) is a corridor we monitor for empty legs — set an alert and match one when your dates flex.
Departing 2–4 hours off the peak slot window at BDA drops handling and slot fees on the 2,698 nm run to LIS.
2,698 nm is inside super-midsize range, so a category step down from heavy metal on BDA–LIS cuts the quote with almost identical cabin comfort.

Overland European upper routes — direct via UN airways with minimal detour.
Runway
9,705 ft (shorter of BDA and LIS) clears heavy metal unrestricted.

Cabin service
Cold gourmet catering, coffee/espresso, single hot service typical.
Best departure time
Mid-morning (10:00–12:00) departure from BDA clears the weekday slot peak and lands LIS before midday handling pressure.

€25,500 – €55,200
Super Midsize through Ultra Long Range over 2,698 nm BDA–LIS, all-in of landing, handling, crew and fuel surcharge. Weekend and peak-season departures out of BDA sit at the upper end.
Price stand: August 2026. BDA–LIS quotes move with fuel, crew duty and slot availability — we re-price at the point of booking.
BDA–LIS supply — thin
BDA — 3 archived movements (2 out / 1 in) from 2 operators. LIS — 36 archived movements (13 out / 23 in) from 5 operators. Most BDA–LIS lift positions in, so expect a ferry element in the price and give us 48h+ where you can.
Positioning into Lisbon (LIS)
When the based fleet is committed, the next BDA–LIS lift comes from LEST (249 nm, 2 aircraft). Those ferries add roughly 20–45 minutes of billed time, which is why identical requests can quote differently on the same day.
Lisbon (LIS)
Charter movement in our archive concentrates in November and July (58% of 36 recorded legs), and falls away in August and September. For BDA–LIS that means booking the peak weeks 2–3 weeks out: the based fleet sells out first, then ferried lift, then nothing, while August is where negotiation actually works.
Phenom 100 / Citation M2 and comparable light jets
At 2,698 nm this sector is beyond a comfortable light-jet leg with full seats and bags — you buy a fuel stop, and a stop costs more than the class saves. It is also the class where golf bags and ski gear stop fitting.
Empty Legs
Repositioning legs departing BDA within 14 days, priced per aircraft for up to 19 seats.
