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 significantly more capability than the trip requires. Its Mach 0.85 cruise puts the flight at a little over two hours, and a 41,000-foot ceiling lets it climb above much of the weather and the seaboard traffic.

The Challenger 650 is best known for its exceptionally wide cabin — nearly eight feet across, unusually broad for the class — and for a long-standing reputation for reliability, the latest refinement of an airframe that has served faithfully for decades.

  • An exceptionally wide cabin, nearly eight feet across
  • Range of 4,000 nm — comfortably nonstop with ample reserves
  • A lineage of reliability built over decades
  • One of the most affordable large-cabin jets in its class

The cabin and its appointments

The cabin seats ten to twelve against a maximum of twelve, in a configuration seven feet eleven inches wide — one of the widest cabins in the large-cabin category — with a full galley and one hundred and fifteen cubic feet of luggage. Its exceptional width creates an unusually spacious cabin environment for this aircraft category, and a notably comfortable one for the group bound for Miami.

How it compares within the class

The Challenger 650 offers a similarly spacious cabin to the Global 5000 in a slightly smaller airframe with lower operating costs, and a Bombardier alternative to the Gulfstream G450. As one of the strongest value options in the large-cabin category, it is a sound and comfortable business choice for the group that prizes cabin width on the New York–Miami run.
