Frequently Asked Questions
A very light jet is the charter category best suited to one- to two-hour hops for small parties who want jet speed at the lowest jet-category cost. SkyBridge Jets sources 3 models in this category, from the Citation Mustang upward.
Indicative hourly rates in this category start from around £2,100 and rise with cabin size and capability. Hourly rate is only part of the cost — positioning, airport fees, crew duty and taxes all move the final quote.
The longest-legged model we source in this category is the HondaJet Elite II at 1,547 nm. Payload, winds and reserves reduce that in practice, so we range-check every sector before quoting.
Typical layouts in this category run up to 4–5 passengers on the HondaJet Elite II. Seating is configuration-specific and confirmed per tail.
SkyBridge Jets is a broker, not an air carrier. Every very light jet we offer is operated by a vetted AOC holder, and the operator is named to you before you commit.
