Embraer Praetor 500 Charter
Published Jun 19, 2026
The Embraer Praetor 500 sits at the top of the midsize class, bringing flat-floor space, a six-foot-ten cabin width and a flagship-grade cabin altitude that no other jet on this page matches. It is the most modern midsize option on the New York–Miami corridor — and with 3,340 nautical miles of range, the route is little more than a warm-up flight.
- 3,340 nm range
- 466 ktas cruise
- 7–9 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).

The flagship of the midsize cabin
At 6 feet 10 inches across with a flat floor, the Praetor 500 has the widest cabin of any jet featured here — wide enough that the club seats never feel pinched, even with a full party of seven to nine flying to South Florida. A 24-foot length, an enclosed lavatory and 150 cubic feet of baggage round out a cabin that out-classes the rest of the midsize field.
The Praetor also holds a 5,800-foot cabin altitude at cruise — markedly lower than its peers — so passengers arrive in Miami less fatigued, breathing denser, more comfortable cabin air the whole way down.
Fast, and far beyond what the route asks
A Mach 0.83 cruise — 466 knots true — makes the Praetor 500 one of the quickest midsize jets, holding Teterboro to Opa-locka to roughly two and a quarter to two and a half hours. Its 3,340 nautical miles of range is more than three times the 950-mile corridor, so a full cabin, winter headwinds and a Palm Beach diversion are non-issues.
That surplus is really about flexibility: the same aircraft that flies you to Miami this week reaches the West Coast, the Caribbean or northern South America nonstop the next, all from the same cabin you already know.
