Why the Hawker 800 / 800XP Fits Long Island
With 2,525 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from Long Island to destinations such as Bermuda, Nassau and Las Vegas, allowing for reserves and routing. Many Long Island clients winter in Florida, and the weeks around the holidays are busy for flights south, so book early.
Long Island trips in this class usually leave from Republic in East Farmingdale or MacArthur in Ronkonkoma, and summer trips to the Hamptons use East Hampton or Gabreski. 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 Hawker 800 / 800XP
Midsize jets handle Long Island trips to Florida, the Bahamas and the middle of the country with a cabin that stays comfortable for three hours or more. The extra seats, the bigger baggage hold and the room to move around all count on a family trip.
