Built Wide, Built to Last
The Hawker 800 series earned its reputation as the midsize workhorse through one simple advantage: the widest cabin in its class. At 5 feet 9 inches across, passengers sit in genuine comfort — not the narrow-tube compromise found in competing midsize jets.
Inside, the 21-foot cabin accommodates eight to nine passengers in a double-club configuration. Leather seating, fold-out work tables, and an enclosed lavatory make the Hawker 800 a productive environment for flights up to five hours.
Hawker Beechcraft built over 850 of these aircraft between 1983 and 2013. That production volume means proven systems, deep maintenance networks, and parts availability that keeps operating costs predictable. This is an aircraft that was designed to work hard and last.

Why Charter This Aircraft
Beyond comfort — private charter delivers measurable advantages in time, flexibility, and productivity.
Proven Reliability
Over 850 Hawker 800 series aircraft delivered across three decades. Millions of flight hours logged worldwide. One of the most trusted and battle-tested midsize jets in aviation history.
Widest Midsize Cabin
At 5 ft 9 in wide, the Hawker 800 cabin is the widest in the midsize category. Passengers notice the difference immediately — genuine shoulder room, not the narrow-tube feel of competing jets.
Short-Field Performance
The Hawker 800 accesses thousands of airports that larger jets cannot use. Shorter runways, smaller regional fields, and mountain airstrips are all within its operating envelope.
Outstanding Value
Charter rates of $5,000-$7,000 per hour deliver a wide, comfortable cabin with midsize range — without the heavy-jet price tag. The Hawker 800 is the smart choice for cost-conscious travelers.
Seats Up to 9 Passengers
The Hawker 800 seats up to 9 passengers, handling groups that would require two light jets. Typical charter configurations seat 8-9 in a spacious double-club layout.
Robust Build Quality
Hawker Beechcraft built these aircraft to endure the demands of daily charter operations. Reinforced airframes, proven Honeywell engines, and mature systems mean fewer surprises and higher dispatch reliability.
Skip the Connections

Frequently Asked Questions
Precise answers to the most common questions about chartering this aircraft.
Hawker 800 charter rates typically range from $5,000 to $7,000 per flight hour. A short domestic flight of 1-1.5 hours costs approximately $10,000-$16,000 all-in.

The Hawker 800XP has a maximum range of 2,540 nautical miles. The upgraded 850XP variant extends this to 2,900 nm. This covers the majority of domestic U.S. routes nonstop, plus Caribbean and Central American destinations from the southern U.S. Actual range varies with passenger count, baggage weight, and wind conditions.
The Hawker 800 seats up to 9 passengers in most charter configurations, arranged in a comfortable double-club layout. The 21 ft 4 in cabin with its class-leading 5 ft 9 in width provides genuine shoulder room for every occupant. An enclosed aft lavatory and 49.4 cu ft baggage compartment complete the layout.
The Hawker 800 offers the widest cabin in the midsize category, seating for up to 9 passengers, and a proven track record of over 850 deliveries — all at charter rates of $5,000-$7,000 per hour. Competing midsize jets with narrower cabins often cost more per hour. The Hawker 800 also delivers excellent short-field performance, opening access to smaller airports that reduce ground travel time.
Yes. The Hawker 800 has excellent short-field performance, requiring approximately 5,000 feet for takeoff at typical charter weights. This opens access to thousands of smaller regional airports, mountain airstrips, and compact fields that larger midsize and heavy jets must bypass. Passengers benefit by departing from airports closer to their origin and landing closer to their final destination.
The 850XP is the final and most capable variant of the Hawker 800 series. Key improvements include extended range (2,900 nm vs 2,540 nm), winglets for improved fuel efficiency and climb performance, and enhanced avionics. The cabin dimensions are identical between variants. Both deliver the same wide-body comfort and robust reliability. When chartering, we source the best available variant for your specific mission.
Both are midsize jets with similar range and speed. The Hawker 800 has a wider cabin (5 ft 9 in vs 5 ft 1 in) and a longer cabin (21 ft 4 in vs 17 ft 7 in), with similar passenger capacity (up to 9 vs 8-9). The Learjet 60 climbs to 51,000 ft and has a slightly higher top speed. The Hawker 800 typically charters at a lower hourly rate and has a larger available fleet due to 850+ deliveries.
Yes. Hawker 800 empty legs are among the most frequently available in the midsize category, thanks to the large fleet of 850+ aircraft in service.
