Out of Orlando, a piston aircraft is a short-hop option for one or two passengers with soft bags, such as a quick trip across Florida.
Piper introduced the Cherokee Six PA-32 in 1965. It seats 6 to 7 with a published range of 730 nautical miles and a cruise speed of 146 knots. The aircraft has a service ceiling of 16,250 feet and 30 cubic feet of baggage volume.

Why the Piper Cherokee Six PA-32 Fits Orlando
With 730 nautical miles of published range, it can fly between Orlando Executive and destinations such as Atlanta, Charlotte and Nashville, 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.
Smaller aircraft usually fly from Orlando Executive or Kissimmee Gateway, the closest jet airport to Walt Disney World and Celebration, and the operator confirms the airport at each end on your quote. 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 Piper Cherokee Six PA-32
If the trip grows longer or the bags heavier, a turboprop is the next step, and your advisor will say so on the quote.
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.

- 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.
