BEST VALUE
Super Midsize
The Embraer Praetor 600 clears both runways and has range headroom on the 3,338 nm leg without stepping up into a larger, more expensive cabin — the lowest hourly cost that still handles this pair reliably.
Indicative all-in €35,100
FASTEST
Ultra Long Range
On 3,338 nm the Bombardier Global 5000 carries the highest cruise speed in the eligible short-list. The saving is roughly 40 minutes of block time against the smallest eligible class — worth it on a same-day return, marginal otherwise.
Indicative all-in €59,200

On Greenwich → Chamonix, aircraft positioning is the biggest lever on price today.
PRICE DRIVERS
Aircraft based off-route are repositioned to Greenwich before pickup — the shorter that leg, the more competitive the quote.
CMF takes heavy one-way arrivals in season, so operators price a probable empty 3,338 nm return toward Greenwich into the HPN–CMF quote.
Landing, handling and ramp fees on HPN–CMF are set field by field — HPN and CMF each carry their own coordinated-airport surcharge profile.
On a 3,338 nm sector, jet-fuel price movements meaningfully change the quote — operators quote against a live fuel-uplift band.
HPN–CMF is a winter ski corridor — Dec–Mar Saturdays and Greenwich school-holiday weeks command peak pricing on this 3,338 nm sector.
Ramp capacity at CMF during ski peaks constrains the lift available for 3,338 nm inbounds from Greenwich — operators quote accordingly.
Alpine arrivals into Chamonix carry a diversion risk in winter — operators build resilience (fuel, alternate) into the quote.
Slot coordination at CMF — peak-season Saturdays especially — forces earlier commitment on Greenwich departures and raises handling on HPN–CMF.
Ultra-long sectors trigger augmented crew requirements — an extra pilot's cost is reflected in the hourly rate.
Overnight parking at CMF is normally available and adds a defined ramp and handling fee to the HPN–CMF quote.
SAVING OPPORTUNITIES
Saving levers on Greenwich → Chamonix
If the aircraft is already positioned closer to another Greenwich-area field, using it reduces positioning cost and often trims 5–15% off the quote.
Alternative arrivals near CMF can trim handling and slot pressure on HPN–CMF — see the airport comparison above.
HPN ↔ CMF (3,338 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 HPN drops handling and slot fees on the 3,338 nm run to CMF.
Flying Sunday/Monday instead of Friday/Saturday during peak season regularly reduces the quote by 20–40%.
A same-aircraft return on HPN–CMF avoids the repositioning charge back to base — say so in the quote request.

Nonstop feasibility
Well within super-midsize range — comfortably nonstop on this corridor.
Typical flight level
FL410–FL450 over the 3,338 nm HPN–CMF sector
Typical routing
Overland European upper routes — direct via UN airways with minimal detour.
Noise / curfew
Night curfew at Greenwich (23:00–07:00 restricted).
Runway
6,549 ft (shorter of HPN and CMF) favours midsize and super-midsize jets; heavy metal may need payload optimisation.
Fuel stop likelihood
No fuel stop on 3,338 nm; HPN–CMF is a single-sector mission for every class we quote.
Cabin service
Cold gourmet catering, coffee/espresso, single hot service typical.
Best departure time
Mid-morning (10:00–12:00) departure from HPN clears the weekday slot peak and lands CMF before midday handling pressure.

€31,500 – €67,800
Super Midsize through Ultra Long Range over 3,338 nm HPN–CMF, all-in of landing, handling, crew and fuel surcharge. Weekend and peak-season departures out of HPN sit at the upper end.
Price stand: August 2026. HPN–CMF quotes move with fuel, crew duty and slot availability — we re-price at the point of booking.
HPN–CMF supply — thin
HPN — 9 archived movements (6 out / 3 in) from 6 operators. CMF — 3 archived movements (1 out / 2 in) from 2 operators. Most HPN–CMF lift positions in, so expect a ferry element in the price and give us 48h+ where you can.
Positioning into Greenwich (HPN)
With little metal based on the field, aircraft typically ferry in from KHPN (0 nm, 7 aircraft), KTEB (21 nm, 58 aircraft), KDXR (21 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.
Positioning into Chamonix (CMF)
With little metal based on the field, aircraft typically ferry in from LFLB (0 nm, 1 aircraft), LFLP (20 nm, 4 aircraft), LFLJ (35 nm, 3 aircraft). A 30–60 minute positioning sector is normal and is already inside the quotes above — beware anyone showing a price that ignores it.
Greenwich (HPN) — departing for CMF
HPN departing for CMF: PPR for peak Fridays. Curfew: 23:00–07:00 restricted.
Phenom 100 / Citation M2 and comparable light jets
At 3,338 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 HPN within 14 days, priced per aircraft for up to 19 seats.

LEAD TIME
Peak weekends: 2–4 weeks ahead. Off-peak: 48–72 hours is comfortable.
BEST BOOKING WINDOW
Mid-week (Tue–Thu) in early December or after the February half-term. Avoid Saturdays and school-holiday changeovers.
FLEXIBLE DATES
A ±1-day window opens up meaningfully more empty-leg and repositioning options — worth signalling in the enquiry.

Indicative one-way pricing on this pair is €32,000–€68,000 one-way, all-in, depending on aircraft class and season. Empty legs run 25–75% below these ranges.
Bombardier Global 5000 (Ultra Long Range) is our standing pick — On 3,338 nm the Bombardier Global 5000 carries the highest cruise speed in the eligible short-list. The saving is roughly 40 minutes of block time against the smallest eligible class — worth it on a same-day return, marginal otherwise.
Yes on midsize and larger aircraft with external baggage (Embraer Praetor 600 and up). Board bags and ski cases fit the hold on Bombardier Global 5000.
Alpine access is the constraint — see the airport comparison below.
Snow, low ceilings and crosswinds can force diversion to a valley alternate. Aircraft type-rating and current alternate briefings materially reduce the risk.
Christmas / New Year and February half-term are the hardest weeks — book 4–8 weeks ahead for those.
Yes — Geneva (GVA) is 60–75 min to Chamonix; Sion (SIR) is a Swiss-side alternative.
Observed pricing
On a 3,338 nm sector our fixed-price model quotes €46,100 for a heavy and €63,500 for an ultra long range in standard season — 2 cabin classes clear the range and runway test here.
