Austin to Washington D.C.

Round-trip quotes total about 6.0 hours of block time across both legs. Block time is measured engine-start to engine-shutdown, so it includes taxi at both ends and runs longer than the airborne time a distance calculator returns.

These are types JetLevel has quoted and flown on this exact city pair: round trip quotes we have flown: Citation CJ4 Gen2, Learjet 60, Learjet 45 and Citation XLS+. No single category reaches the five quotes we require before publishing a median here, so the list above is what we have actually put on the route rather than a menu of what could fly it.

$8,659 an hour round trip across every aircraft type we have quoted here. That is a blended figure across categories, so read it as the level this route prices at rather than a rate for a specific aircraft. We publish an hourly figure only where the leg is long enough for one to mean anything. Below an operator's billing minimum the quote is the minimum charge, and dividing it by the hours produces a number that describes nothing.

The lowest median we publish on this route is $51,524 round trip, across every aircraft type we have quoted here. Below that, the only reliable saving is an empty leg: an aircraft already repositioning in your direction, which trades schedule flexibility for price and only exists when someone else's trip creates it. Current empty leg flights.
