Midsize Jet Charter: NYC to Miami
Published
The midsize jet is the step above light. The defining change is the cabin: full stand-up height, a flat floor, and a fully enclosed lavatory. Seating runs seven to nine. The route is flown nonstop in about two and a half hours.
For a group that has outgrown a light jet, or a flight where standing room and a private lavatory matter, this is the working tier. Depart Teterboro Airport (TEB) or Westchester County Airport (HPN); arrive Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport (OPF), Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport (FXE) or Miami International Airport (MIA).

Private charters on the New York–Miami corridor depart from Teterboro Airport (TEB), Westchester County Airport (HPN), Morristown Municipal Airport (MMU) or Republic Airport (FRG), and arrive at Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport (OPF), Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport (FXE), Miami International Airport (MIA) or Palm Beach International (PBI).

Route fit
Range is not the constraint here — most midsize jets carry 2,000 to 3,200 nautical miles against a 950-mile route. The class earns its place on comfort: a six-foot cabin, more baggage, and a lavatory you can stand in. Block time stays near two and a half hours.
- Full stand-up cabin and flat floor
- Enclosed lavatory as standard
- Seats seven to nine with luggage
- Nonstop New York to Miami
Aircraft in this class
The catalogue includes the Citation XLS+, the Citation Latitude, the Praetor 500 and the Hawker 900XP, among others. Cabin width and baggage volume separate them; the table compares the set.
Midsize or super-midsize
Super-midsize jets widen the floor again, add transcontinental range and seat eight to ten. On the New York–Miami corridor that extra range is unused, so the choice comes down to cabin width and group size. We quote both tiers.
