BEST VALUE
Light Jet
The Eclipse 550 clears both runways and has range headroom on the 947 nm leg without stepping up into a larger, more expensive cabin — the lowest hourly cost that still handles this pair reliably.
Indicative all-in €7,500
MOST POPULAR
Midsize
Midsize aircraft like the Cessna Citation VII are the workhorse of Dallas–Palm Beach — they hit the sweet spot on cabin comfort, block time and cost that the majority of charterers pick.
Indicative all-in €9,500
FASTEST
Super Midsize
On 947 nm the Bombardier Challenger 300 carries the highest cruise speed in the eligible short-list. The saving is roughly 18 minutes of block time against the smallest eligible class — worth it on a same-day return, marginal otherwise.
Indicative all-in €10,900

On Dallas → Palm Beach, aircraft positioning is the biggest lever on price today.
PRICE DRIVERS
Aircraft based off-route are repositioned to Dallas before pickup — the shorter that leg, the more competitive the quote.
If the aircraft can't pick up a return charter from Palm Beach, the empty repositioning leg is baked into your quote.
Landing, handling and ramp fees on DAL–PBI are set field by field — DAL and PBI each carry their own coordinated-airport surcharge profile.
Across 947 nm the fuel uplift is a bounded line item on DAL–PBI, not the driver of the quote.
Dallas → Palm Beach demand cycles pull the 947 nm sector off its low band on peak weeks.
Ramp capacity at PBI constrains the lift available for 947 nm inbounds from Dallas — operators quote accordingly.
Weather rarely re-prices DAL–PBI beyond marginal fuel adjustments over 947 nm.
Slot coordination at PBI — peak-season Saturdays especially — forces earlier commitment on Dallas departures and raises handling on DAL–PBI.
At 947 nm, DAL–PBI sits far inside a single crew duty period — no augmented crew cost.
Overnight parking at PBI is normally available and adds a defined ramp and handling fee to the DAL–PBI quote.
SAVING OPPORTUNITIES
Saving levers on Dallas → Palm Beach
If the aircraft is already positioned closer to another Dallas-area field, using it reduces positioning cost and often trims 5–15% off the quote.
Alternative arrivals near PBI can trim handling and slot pressure on DAL–PBI — see the airport comparison above.
DAL ↔ PBI (947 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 DAL drops handling and slot fees on the 947 nm run to PBI.
947 nm is inside super-midsize range, so a category step down from heavy metal on DAL–PBI cuts the quote with almost identical cabin comfort.

Nonstop feasibility
Well within super-midsize range — comfortably nonstop on this corridor.
Typical flight level
FL370–FL430 across 947 nm on DAL–PBI
Typical routing
Direct DAL–PBI routing, 947 nm great-circle with negligible airway detour.
Runway
8,800 ft (shorter of DAL and PBI) accommodates super-midsize and heavy jets on typical payloads.
Fuel stop likelihood
No fuel stop on 947 nm; DAL–PBI is a single-sector mission for every class we quote.
Cabin service
Light catering only — 947 nm block time leaves no window for a galley service.
Best departure time
Mid-morning (10:00–12:00) departure from DAL clears the weekday slot peak and lands PBI before midday handling pressure.

€6,400 – €12,500
Light Jet through Super Midsize over 947 nm DAL–PBI, all-in of landing, handling, crew and fuel surcharge. Weekend and peak-season departures out of DAL sit at the upper end.
Price stand: August 2026. DAL–PBI quotes move with fuel, crew duty and slot availability — we re-price at the point of booking.
DAL–PBI supply — thin
DAL — 39 archived movements (17 out / 22 in) from 7 operators. PBI — 3 archived movements (2 out / 1 in) from 3 operators. Most DAL–PBI lift positions in, so expect a ferry element in the price and give us 48h+ where you can.
Positioning into Dallas (DAL)
When the based fleet is committed, the next DAL–PBI lift comes from KDAL (0 nm, 34 aircraft), KADS (7 nm, 12 aircraft), KDFW (10 nm, 8 aircraft). Those ferries add roughly 20–45 minutes of billed time, which is why identical requests can quote differently on the same day.
Positioning into Palm Beach (PBI)
With little metal based on the field, aircraft typically ferry in from KPBI (0 nm, 13 aircraft), KBCT (18 nm, 6 aircraft), KPMP (26 nm, 6 aircraft). A 30–60 minute positioning sector is normal and is already inside the quotes above — beware anyone showing a price that ignores it.
Global 7500 / Gulfstream G650 on a short sector
Over 947 nm an ultra-long-range cabin bills roughly €8,100/hour for a flight measured in single-digit hours, and rarely repositions economically to this pair. You pay ULR money for a cabin you cannot use.
Empty Legs
Repositioning legs departing DAL within 14 days, priced per aircraft for up to 19 seats.

LEAD TIME
48–72 hours is comfortable — 12 hours is achievable when aircraft are in position.
BEST BOOKING WINDOW
Tuesday–Thursday midweek is typically the lowest-friction window on this pair.
FLEXIBLE DATES
A ±1-day window opens up meaningfully more empty-leg and repositioning options — worth signalling in the enquiry.
