The route

This is one of the defining transcontinental routes in private aviation, linking the entertainment and business hubs of Southern California with Manhattan. Midsize and Super Midsize Jets such as the Citation XLS and Challenger 350 are the practical choices for the roughly five and a half hour crossing, offering a sensible balance of cabin comfort and operating cost. Travellers seeking longer range and a quieter cabin at altitude often step up to a Heavy Jet like the Falcon 900, or an Ultra Long Range aircraft such as the Gulfstream G550 for the fastest crossing, at 5h 02m. Pricing is shaped by aircraft category, positioning of the aircraft at Van Nuys, and the choice of New York area airport on arrival.
