# Chicago and Boston Private Jet Charter

## Private Jet Charter between Chicago and Boston

Book a nonstop private jet charter flight from Chicago to Boston with the option to select your aircraft upon request.

A private jet charter flight from Chicago to Boston links two of the country’s leading financial and corporate centers, connecting Chicago’s trading, banking, and headquarters economy with Boston’s concentration of finance, asset management, biotechnology, and venture capital. Executives, investment teams, and institutional travelers move between the two cities throughout the year, and private aviation lets them do it on their own schedule and from airports built for business travel rather than the busy commercial hubs.

At roughly 860 miles, the route is an easy nonstop for a wide range of business jets, and a charter turns a day that would otherwise involve connections or a packed direct flight into a straightforward two-hour trip. For a morning meeting in Boston and a return the same evening, it is often the only practical way to make the round trip work.

Airport choice is where the advantage is clearest. Both cities are served by dedicated general-aviation airports that put travelers close to the business districts, and skipping the congestion at the main terminals can save as much time on the ground as the flight itself does in the air.

## Private Jets for Charter Flights between Chicago & Boston

### Turboprops

A turboprop can make the trip, but at this distance it gives up too much speed to be the obvious choice — most travelers reserve aircraft like the Pilatus PC-12NG for shorter regional legs and step into a jet for the run to Boston.

When the group grows or the day runs long, a Challenger 350 or Citation Longitude adds width, range to spare, and a cabin comfortable enough that the two hours pass as productive time rather than downtime.

#### [Challenger 350](https://privatejet.com/aircraft/challenger-350/)

- Capacity: 10 passengers
- Price per hour: $6,100
- Cabin Size: 6 ft (H) x 7.2 ft (W) x 25.2 ft (L)

- Cruise speed: 472 knots

### Heavy Jets

A Falcon 900EX or Gulfstream G450 brings a stand-up, multi-zone cabin suited to a larger team or to a Chicago–Boston leg that feeds into a longer journey — more capability than the distance strictly needs, but welcome on a full travel day.

#### [Falcon 900EX](https://privatejet.com/aircraft/falcon-900ex/)

- Capacity: 14 passengers
- Price per hour: $7,800

- Capacity: 13 passengers
- Price per hour: $7,900
- Cabin Size: 6.1 ft (H) x 7.3 ft (W) x 45.1 ft (L)

### Ultra Long Range Jets

Now and then a client pairs this route with an intercontinental leg, and that is where a Global 7500 or Gulfstream G650 fits — cabins designed for transoceanic range and a full day aloft. For the Chicago–Boston segment alone they are far more aircraft than the trip demands, but they make sense when Boston or Chicago is one stop on a much wider itinerary.

#### [Global 7500](https://privatejet.com/aircraft/global-7500/)

- Capacity: 19 passengers
- Price per hour: $15,700
- Cabin Size: 6.2 ft (H) x 8 ft (W) x 54.4 ft (L)
- Cruise speed: 487 knots

#### [Gulfstream G650](https://privatejet.com/aircraft/gulfstream-g650/)

- Capacity: 18 passengers
- Price per hour: $13,500
- Cabin Size: 6.4 ft (H) x 8.5 ft (W) x 46.8 ft (L)
- Cruise speed: 516 knots

#### [Falcon 8X](https://privatejet.com/aircraft/falcon-8x/)

- Capacity: 16 passengers
- Price per hour: $11,800

### Frequently Asked Questions

#### Which Boston airport is better for a private jet, Hanscom or Logan?

It depends on where you are going. Hanscom Field (BED), northwest of the city, is the preferred general-aviation airport and is often quicker for the western suburbs, the tech corridor, and Cambridge. Logan (BOS) sits minutes from downtown and is the better choice for a meeting in the financial district or an onward international connection. Your advisor can weigh the two against your itinerary.

#### Do I need to account for the time change between the two cities?

Yes, though it is only an hour. Boston runs an hour ahead of Chicago, so an eastbound flight arrives an hour later on the clock than the elapsed time suggests, and the westbound return recovers it. Because a charter departs when you are ready, your consultant simply builds the schedule around the correct local times at each end.

#### What size jet is the most popular on this route?

Midsize and super-midsize jets are the usual choice. They combine the nonstop range for the 860-mile trip with a cabin roomy enough to work in, which suits the business groups that make up most of the traffic. Smaller light jets are a cost-effective option for compact parties, and larger cabins are available when the group or the itinerary calls for them.
