Why the Boeing 787-9 (VIP) Fits New York

With 7,565 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from New York to destinations such as Jackson Hole, Paris and Dubai, allowing for reserves and routing. Summer weekends to the Hamptons and the islands fill early, with Thursday departures and Sunday returns the busiest, so aircraft for those dates are worth booking well ahead.

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 787-9 (VIP)

VIP airliners handle the New York groups that no business jet can take, such as corporate delegations, sports teams, touring productions and large family trips. Once the group runs past nineteen passengers, the trip no longer falls under FAR Part 135, the FAA’s rules for on-demand, for-hire charter. Those flights operate under FAR Part 121 or a foreign equivalent, which generally carries stricter crew and operating requirements than both Part 91 and Part 135.

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.

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.
