BEST VALUE
Light Jet
The Eclipse 550 clears both runways and has range headroom on the 275 nm leg without stepping up into a larger, more expensive cabin — the lowest hourly cost that still handles this pair reliably.
Indicative all-in €3,500
MOST POPULAR
Midsize
Midsize aircraft like the Cessna Citation VII are the workhorse of Split–Vienna — they hit the sweet spot on cabin comfort, block time and cost that the majority of charterers pick.

On Split → Vienna, aircraft positioning is the biggest lever on price today.
PRICE DRIVERS
Aircraft based off-route are repositioned to Split before pickup — the shorter that leg, the more competitive the quote.
If the aircraft can't pick up a return charter from Vienna, the empty repositioning leg is baked into your quote.
Landing, handling and ramp fees on SPU–VIE are set field by field — SPU and VIE each carry their own coordinated-airport surcharge profile.
Across 275 nm the fuel uplift is a bounded line item on SPU–VIE, not the driver of the quote.
Split → Vienna demand cycles pull the 275 nm sector off its low band on peak weeks.
Ramp capacity at VIE constrains the lift available for 275 nm inbounds from Split — operators quote accordingly.
Weather rarely re-prices SPU–VIE beyond marginal fuel adjustments over 275 nm.
Slot coordination at VIE — peak-season Saturdays especially — forces earlier commitment on Split departures and raises handling on SPU–VIE.
At 275 nm, SPU–VIE sits far inside a single crew duty period — no augmented crew cost.
Overnight parking at VIE is normally available and adds a defined ramp and handling fee to the SPU–VIE quote.
SAVING OPPORTUNITIES
Saving levers on Split → Vienna
If the aircraft is already positioned closer to another Split-area field, using it reduces positioning cost and often trims 5–15% off the quote.
Alternative arrivals near VIE can trim handling and slot pressure on SPU–VIE — see the airport comparison above.
SPU ↔ VIE (275 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 SPU drops handling and slot fees on the 275 nm run to VIE.
275 nm is inside super-midsize range, so a category step down from heavy metal on SPU–VIE cuts the quote with almost identical cabin comfort.

Nonstop feasibility
Well within super-midsize range — comfortably nonstop on this corridor.
Typical flight level
FL280–FL380 on the short 275 nm SPU–VIE hop
Typical routing
Direct SPU–VIE routing, 275 nm great-circle with negligible airway detour.
Runway
8,366 ft (shorter of SPU and VIE) accommodates super-midsize and heavy jets on typical payloads.
Fuel stop likelihood
No fuel stop on 275 nm; SPU–VIE is a single-sector mission for every class we quote.
Cabin service
Light catering only — 275 nm block time leaves no window for a galley service.
Best departure time
Mid-morning (10:00–12:00) departure from SPU clears the weekday slot peak and lands VIE before midday handling pressure.

€3,000 – €4,700
Light Jet through Midsize over 275 nm SPU–VIE, all-in of landing, handling, crew and fuel surcharge. Weekend and peak-season departures out of SPU sit at the upper end.
Price stand: August 2026. SPU–VIE quotes move with fuel, crew duty and slot availability — we re-price at the point of booking.
SPU–VIE supply — workable
SPU — 39 archived movements (22 out / 17 in) from 12 operators. VIE — 88 archived movements (43 out / 45 in) from 13 operators. The thinner end sets the price on SPU–VIE: 24–48h notice materially improves the quote.
Positioning into Split (SPU)
When the based fleet is committed, the next SPU–VIE 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.
Positioning into Vienna (VIE)
When the based fleet is committed, the next SPU–VIE lift comes from LOWW (0 nm, 24 aircraft), LZIB (26 nm, 2 aircraft), LOWG (81 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.
Vienna (VIE)
Charter movement in our archive concentrates in July and August (97% of 88 recorded legs), and falls away in September. For SPU–VIE 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.
Global 7500 / Gulfstream G650 on a short sector
Over 275 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 SPU within 14 days, priced per aircraft for up to 19 seats.
