Why the Boeing 757 Freighter Fits New York

With 2,935 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from New York to destinations such as Chicago, Dallas and San Francisco, allowing for reserves and routing. From roughly November through March, snow and de-icing can add time to a New York departure, so build a little slack into winter plans.

With an aircraft this size, Teterboro’s 100,000 lb operating-weight limit is worth checking early. Many heavy jets operate within it, while the largest long range jets and airliners usually fly from Westchester County, Stewart or one of the major New York airports. Whether the aircraft can use a particular airport on your date is the operator’s call for that aircraft, its weight and the day’s weather, and your advisor will confirm it before anything is booked.

How New York Clients Use the Boeing 757 Freighter

Freight charters to and from New York cover urgent parts, relief supplies and equipment that needs its own aircraft. Whether the freight goes in through a large side door or the nose can matter as much as the aircraft’s payload.

Send us the weight, the dimensions and the pickup and delivery points, and your advisor will tell you whether this aircraft fits the load or suggest one that fits better.

Vetting Behind Every Trip

Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:

FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
