Private Jets for Charter Flights between Atlanta & Portland
Turboprops
A turboprop saves about $3,000 compared with a light jet, but the flight takes around an hour longer. It suits a couple or a small family with modest luggage who don’t mind the extra time. Cabins are compact, without stand-up headroom.
Light Jets
Light jets fly this route nonstop and suit two or three executives on a short business trip. Baggage space is tight, usually six or seven small or medium bags, so pack light. Some models have an enclosed lavatory.
Midsize Jets
A midsize jet can get you to Portland up to 20 minutes sooner than a light jet. It also has an enclosed lavatory and more baggage space for families traveling with several suitcases.
Super Midsize Jets
Many super-midsize jets have a cabin tall enough to stand in and room for a week’s luggage. They suit a management team visiting clients in the Portland area, or a larger family that wants space to move around.
Heavy Jets
Heavy jets usually have a galley and separate seating areas. A heavy jet takes about as long as a super midsize jet here, so the extra cost buys cabin space for a bigger group.
Ultra Long Range Jets
Ultra-long-range jets are the fastest option, 15 to 25 minutes quicker than a super midsize jet, but they cost $15,500 to $17,500 more. Many models have fully reclining seats and a full galley.
