The Challenger 650 from New York to Miami
With 4,000 nautical miles of range against the route's 950, the Challenger 650 flies New York to Miami nonstop with ample reserves, and carries range enough to continue across the country from Miami. Its Mach 0.85 cruise sets the passage at a little over two hours, and a 41,000-foot ceiling carries it above the weather and the seaboard traffic.
The 650's defining quality is the width of its cabin — nearly eight feet across, exceptionally broad for the class — and its lineage of reliability, the latest refinement of an airframe that has served faithfully for decades.

The cabin and its appointments
The cabin seats ten to twelve against a maximum of twelve, in a configuration seven feet eleven inches wide — among the broadest in business aviation — with a full galley and one hundred and fifteen cubic feet of luggage. The exceptional width lends it a sense of space beyond its length, making it a notably comfortable cabin for the group bound for Miami.
How it compares within the class
The Challenger 650 offers a comparably wide cabin to the Global 5000 in a shorter, more economical airframe, and a Bombardier alternative to the Gulfstream G450. As the most accessible widebody in the heavy class, it is a sound and comfortable business choice for the group that prizes cabin width on the New York–Miami run.
