A super midsize jet suits the longer Long Island trips where a midsize jet would be full or would need to stop for fuel.

Why the Bombardier Challenger 300 Fits Long Island
With 3,100 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from Long Island to destinations such as Bermuda, Nassau and Los Angeles, allowing for reserves and routing. Long Island shares the busy New York airspace, so weather that slows the city’s airports can slow a Long Island departure too.
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 Bombardier Challenger 300
When a midsize jet would be full or would need to stop for fuel, a super midsize jet is the usual answer, with more cabin space and a larger baggage hold.
