WHAT TO DO NEXT · BOOKABLE — PRICING IS CLEAR ON THIS SECTOR
Every class we price on this pair clears both runways and covers the sector nonstop, and the ranges shown are modelled from those same aircraft rows — so there is nothing route-specific left to resolve before booking.
ROUTE INTELLIGENCE · AIRCRAFT RECOMMENDATION ENGINE
BEST VALUE
Midsize
The Cessna Citation VII clears both runways and has range headroom on the 1,117 nm leg without stepping up into a larger, more expensive cabin — the lowest hourly cost that still handles this pair reliably.
Indicative all-in €10,900
FASTEST
Heavy
On 1,117 nm the Dassault Falcon 50EX carries the highest cruise speed in the eligible short-list. The saving is roughly 15 minutes of block time against the smallest eligible class — worth it on a same-day return, marginal otherwise.
Indicative all-in €21,100

ROUTE INTELLIGENCE · PRICING INTELLIGENCE
On Tel Aviv → Hvar, aircraft positioning is the biggest lever on price today.
PRICE DRIVERS
Aircraft based off-route are repositioned to Tel Aviv before pickup — the shorter that leg, the more competitive the quote.
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 TLV–SPU are set field by field — TLV and SPU each carry their own coordinated-airport surcharge profile.
Across 1,117 nm the fuel uplift is a bounded line item on TLV–SPU, not the driver of the quote.
Tel Aviv → Hvar demand cycles pull the 1,117 nm sector off its low band on peak weeks.
Ramp capacity at SPU constrains the lift available for 1,117 nm inbounds from Tel Aviv — operators quote accordingly.
Weather rarely re-prices TLV–SPU beyond marginal fuel adjustments over 1,117 nm.
Slot coordination at SPU — peak-season Saturdays especially — forces earlier commitment on Tel Aviv departures and raises handling on TLV–SPU.
At 1,117 nm, TLV–SPU sits far inside a single crew duty period — no augmented crew cost.
Overnight parking at SPU is normally available and adds a defined ramp and handling fee to the TLV–SPU quote.
SAVING OPPORTUNITIES
Saving levers on Tel Aviv → Hvar
If the aircraft is already positioned closer to another Tel Aviv-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 TLV–SPU — see the airport comparison above.
TLV ↔ SPU (1,117 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 TLV drops handling and slot fees on the 1,117 nm run to SPU.
1,117 nm is inside super-midsize range, so a category step down from heavy metal on TLV–SPU cuts the quote with almost identical cabin comfort.

ASK A QUESTIONAirborne time is approximately 3h 10m on the 1,117 nm great-circle sector in a light jet, or about 3h 25m block to block once taxi at TLV and SPU is counted. Across the 5 classes that clear both runways nonstop, block time runs from 2h 55m in an ultra-long-range to 3h 25m in a light jet. All five cabin classes are runway-legal and range-capable on this pair, so the decision is cabin and cost rather than sector time. Figures are indicative great-circle estimates; actual times move with routing, winds and ATC on the day.
Over the 1,117 nm sector our desk models midsize charter from €9,400 one-way and heavy jet from €20,600. Neither field length nor sector range removes a cabin category here, so the spread between midsize and heavy jet reflects cabin choice rather than an operating restriction on the pair. The accepted rows more than double between midsize and heavy jet, so cabin selection is the largest single line item a client controls on this pair. light jet, super-midsize and ultra-long-range aircraft clear both fields on this pair but carry no modelled row here, so those cabins are quoted on request. These are modelled charter estimates for this pair — not live quotes, not observed transactions — and the final figure moves with aircraft positioning and availability on the date.
Dassault Falcon 50EX (Heavy) is our standing pick — On 1,117 nm the Dassault Falcon 50EX carries the highest cruise speed in the eligible short-list. The saving is roughly 15 minutes of block time against the smallest eligible class — worth it on a same-day return, marginal otherwise.
Well within super-midsize range — comfortably nonstop on this corridor.
Dassault Falcon 50EX carries a full summer group and luggage without pushing into a heavier hourly rate.
Yes in peak weeks — an unfiled slot can push a landing time by hours. Book firm before the slot window closes.
July and August weekends are the hardest windows.
Yes — Split (SPU) is 60–90 min including a ferry or helicopter transfer to Hvar.
Observed pricing
On a 1,117 nm sector our fixed-price model quotes €9,100 for a light jet and €22,600 for an ultra long range in standard season — 5 cabin classes clear the range and runway test here.
