We compare distance, passengers, baggage volume, runway constraints and expected comfort level to recommend an aircraft that fits the route, not just the most impressive model.

Light jet, midsize or long range depending on the true route profile.

Cabin

Comfort, cabin height, baggage and passenger configuration.
