BEST VALUE
Heavy
The Gulfstream G450 clears both runways and has range headroom on the 3,651 nm leg without stepping up into a larger, more expensive cabin — the lowest hourly cost that still handles this pair reliably.
Indicative all-in €68,900
FASTEST
Ultra Long Range
On 3,651 nm the Bombardier Global 5000 carries the highest cruise speed in the eligible short-list. The saving is roughly 21 minutes of block time against the smallest eligible class — worth it on a same-day return, marginal otherwise.
Indicative all-in €64,500

On Boston → Hvar, aircraft positioning is the biggest lever on price today.
PRICE DRIVERS
Long-haul aircraft rarely sit ready at Boston. Positioning legs across the Atlantic add substantial hours before you fly and are the single largest lever on price.
If the aircraft can't pick up a return charter from Hvar, the empty repositioning leg is baked into your quote.
Landing, handling and ramp fees on BED–SPU are set field by field — BED and SPU each carry their own coordinated-airport surcharge profile.
On a 3,651 nm sector, jet-fuel price movements meaningfully change the quote — operators quote against a live fuel-uplift band.
Boston → Hvar demand cycles pull the 3,651 nm sector off its low band on peak weeks.
Ramp capacity at SPU constrains the lift available for 3,651 nm inbounds from Boston — operators quote accordingly.
Weather rarely re-prices BED–SPU beyond marginal fuel adjustments over 3,651 nm.
Slot coordination at SPU — peak-season Saturdays especially — forces earlier commitment on Boston departures and raises handling on BED–SPU.
Ultra-long sectors trigger augmented crew requirements — an extra pilot's cost is reflected in the hourly rate.
Overnight parking at SPU is normally available and adds a defined ramp and handling fee to the BED–SPU quote.
SAVING OPPORTUNITIES
Saving levers on Boston → Hvar
If the aircraft is already positioned closer to another Boston-area field, using it reduces positioning cost and often trims 5–15% off the quote.
Alternative arrivals near SPU can trim handling and slot pressure on BED–SPU — see the airport comparison above.
BED ↔ SPU (3,651 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 BED drops handling and slot fees on the 3,651 nm run to SPU.
A same-aircraft return on BED–SPU avoids the repositioning charge back to base — say so in the quote request.

Boston → Hvar operational profile
Nonstop feasibility
Nonstop for heavy jets (Falcon 8X, Challenger 605/650 with light payload); a full cabin may want a Global 6000.
Typical flight level
FL410–FL450 over the 3,651 nm BED–SPU sector
Typical routing
Overland European upper routes — direct via UN airways with minimal detour.
Runway
7,011 ft (shorter of BED and SPU) accommodates super-midsize and heavy jets on typical payloads.
Fuel stop likelihood
No fuel stop on 3,651 nm; BED–SPU is a single-sector mission for every class we quote.
Cabin service
Multi-course dining, sleep configuration and hot cabin service — full FA experience.
Best departure time
Mid-morning (10:00–12:00) departure from BED clears the weekday slot peak and lands SPU before midday handling pressure.

Full-charter one-way, desk quote
€55,100 – €70,600
Ultra Long Range through Heavy over 3,651 nm BED–SPU, all-in of landing, handling, crew and fuel surcharge. Weekend and peak-season departures out of BED sit at the upper end.
Price stand: August 2026. BED–SPU quotes move with fuel, crew duty and slot availability — we re-price at the point of booking.
BED–SPU supply — thin
BED — 11 archived movements (5 out / 6 in) from 4 operators. SPU — 38 archived movements (22 out / 16 in) from 11 operators. Most BED–SPU lift positions in, so expect a ferry element in the price and give us 48h+ where you can.
Positioning into Boston (BED)
With little metal based on the field, aircraft typically ferry in from KBED (0 nm, 10 aircraft), KBOS (14 nm, 2 aircraft), KFIT (21 nm, 1 aircraft). A 30–60 minute positioning sector is normal and is already inside the quotes above — beware anyone showing a price that ignores it.
Positioning into Hvar (SPU)
When the based fleet is committed, the next BED–SPU lift comes from LQMO (69 nm, 1 aircraft), LDLO (103 nm, 2 aircraft), LDPL (131 nm, 1 aircraft). Those ferries add roughly 20–45 minutes of billed time, which is why identical requests can quote differently on the same day.
Hvar (SPU)
Charter movement in our archive concentrates in August and July (95% of 38 recorded legs), and falls away in September. For BED–SPU that means booking the peak weeks 2–3 weeks out: the based fleet sells out first, then ferried lift, then nothing, while September is where negotiation actually works.
Phenom 100 / Citation M2 and comparable light jets
At 3,651 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 BED within 14 days, priced per aircraft for up to 19 seats.
