New York Cessna 340 Charter

A piston aircraft is the simplest way to cover a short hop out of New York, such as a run up the Hudson Valley or out to the East End of Long Island.

Cessna introduced the 340 in 1972. It seats 5 with a published range of 1,406 nautical miles and a cruise speed of 243 knots. The aircraft has a service ceiling of 29,800 feet, 32 cubic feet of baggage volume and a lavatory.

Why the Cessna 340 Fits New York

With 1,406 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from New York to destinations such as Toronto, Bermuda and Nassau, 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.

Smaller aircraft give New York clients the widest choice of airports, from Teterboro and Westchester County to Republic in Farmingdale, Morristown and, in summer, East Hampton and Gabreski for the Hamptons. 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 Cessna 340

A piston aircraft makes sense when the trip is simple and short. Seats and bag space are tight, so let us know exactly who is flying and what they are carrying.

Send us the route, the passenger count and what everyone is bringing, and your advisor will tell you whether this aircraft fits the trip or suggest one that fits better.
