Boeing BBJ MAX 8 Charter
Published Jun 23, 2026
The Boeing BBJ MAX 8 is the modern, fuel-efficient evolution of the 737-based bizliner — a stretched fuselage giving roughly ninety-eight feet of cabin, fitted out as a multi-room private residence with lounges, a dining or conference room and a private stateroom. With new-generation LEAP engines doing the work, it carries the largest groups between New York and Miami in airliner-scale space. Cabin layouts and figures vary by completion.
- 6,600 nm range
- 471 ktas cruise
- 19 passengers

Private charters on the New York–Miami corridor depart from Teterboro Airport (TEB), Westchester County Airport (HPN), Morristown Municipal Airport (MMU) or Republic Airport (FRG), and arrive at Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport (OPF), Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport (FXE), Miami International Airport (MIA) or President Donald J. Trump International Airport (DJT).

A flying residence for the corridor
The New York–Miami leg asks almost nothing of an aircraft with around 6,600 nautical miles of range — roughly two and a half hours in the air, with the legs to continue nonstop to Europe or South America should Miami be a waypoint rather than the destination. The reason to charter the BBJ MAX 8 here is its sheer cabin: a long, multi-room interior that keeps a large party — up to thirty guests — together, with distinct spaces to work, dine and rest across the flight.
It is the aircraft for the biggest movements on the route: a full corporate group flying down for Art Basel week, an entertainment tour with its production team, or a multi-generational family travelling as one.
One of the longest cabins in private aviation
At roughly ninety-eight feet, the MAX 8 cabin is among the longest of any bizliner, eleven feet seven inches wide and about seven feet one inch tall, with full standing headroom throughout. A typical completion divides it into separate rooms — a forward lounge, a dining or conference room, a private office and an aft bedroom with an en-suite — so the experience is closer to a residence than to any business jet.
Close to 600 cubic feet of baggage volume carries the wardrobe, equipment and gear a group of this size brings for an extended stay. The LEAP-1B engines that distinguish the MAX from the original BBJ lower fuel burn and noise. Exact rooms, seat count and finishes are specific to each aircraft.

Frequently asked questions
How much is a Boeing BBJ MAX 8 charter from New York to Miami?
As a VIP airliner the BBJ MAX 8 is at the top of the market — typically from around $98,000 one-way all-in and up, depending on the aircraft and its completion. We quote per aircraft for your group and dates, all-inclusive.
How many passengers can the BBJ MAX 8 carry?
About nineteen in a typical VIP layout and up to roughly thirty, depending on the completion. The cabin is configured as a series of rooms rather than dense airline seating, so the exact count varies by aircraft.
How is the BBJ MAX 8 different from the original Boeing BBJ?
The MAX 8 has a longer fuselage — around ninety-eight feet of cabin versus roughly eighty on the original BBJ — and new-generation LEAP-1B engines that cut fuel burn and noise. It carries more guests in more cabin while flying New York to Miami in about the same two and a half hours.
Does the BBJ MAX 8 have a bedroom?
Most completions include a private bedroom with an en-suite, alongside a lounge, a dining or conference room and often a separate office. The precise layout is specific to each aircraft, and we will confirm it on the tail we quote.
Why charter a BBJ MAX 8 for such a short route?
For the cabin. The MAX 8 offers a near-hundred-foot, multi-room interior for very large groups — up to thirty guests together in private — which no purpose-built business jet can provide. For smaller parties a heavy jet is more efficient.
