To fly from Orlando to California without stopping, a super midsize jet is normally where the options begin, and its cabin is tall enough to stand in.
The Hawker 4000 entered service in 2008. It seats 8 to 9 with a published range of 3,190 nautical miles and a cruise speed of 464 knots. The aircraft has a service ceiling of 45,000 feet, 115 cubic feet of baggage volume and an enclosed lavatory.

Why the Hawker 4000 Fits Orlando
With 3,190 nautical miles of published range, it can fly between Orlando Executive and destinations such as Providenciales, Boston and Seattle, allowing for reserves and routing. From June to September, afternoon thunderstorms build over Central Florida most days, so morning departures tend to run closest to plan.
Most jets in this class fly from Orlando Executive, about three miles east of downtown, and some trips use Orlando International or Sanford instead, depending on where you are starting from. Runway needs are calculated by the operator for that day’s conditions, and we confirm them with the operator ahead of the trip.
How Orlando Clients Use the Hawker 4000
Families with homes in both Central Florida and the West tend to come back to the super midsize class, since it makes the trip in a single leg.
Tell us where you are flying from, how many are coming and what they are bringing, strollers and golf bags included, and we will measure this aircraft against the trip before offering alternatives.

- 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.
