Why the Beechcraft King Air 100 Fits New York
With 1,325 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from New York to destinations such as Montreal, Nashville and Nassau, allowing for reserves and routing. Palm Beach and South Florida are busiest from November through April, and aircraft for the holiday weeks are worth booking early.
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 Beechcraft King Air 100
When a small group is heading to an island or a resort town, a turboprop is often the natural fit. Many models are at home on shorter runways that rule out most jets.
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.
