Why the Falcon 8x Fits Long Island
With 6,450 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from Long Island to destinations such as Cancun, Las Vegas and Paris, allowing for reserves and routing. In summer, Thursday and Friday evenings out to the Hamptons and the trips back on Sunday and Monday fill first, so book those dates early.
For the Hamptons, an aircraft this size usually uses Gabreski in Westhampton Beach, the larger of the two East End airports, and for the rest of the island it usually flies from Republic or MacArthur. Whether the aircraft can use a particular airport on your date is up to the operator for that aircraft, its weight and the conditions that day, and your advisor confirms it before anything is booked.
How Long Island Clients Use the Falcon 8x
On a long flight from Long Island, these cabins let passengers rest and arrive ready for the day. For a trip that ends outside the United States, send every passenger’s nationality early, so the arrival abroad can be planned into the route.
Tell us the route, the group and the bags, golf clubs and beach gear included, and your advisor will tell you whether this aircraft fits or suggest a better one.
