Why the Bombardier Challenger 600 Fits Las Vegas
With 2,800 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from Las Vegas to destinations such as Seattle, Nashville and Boston, allowing for reserves and routing. From June through September, afternoon heat in Las Vegas can limit how much an aircraft carries, so the operator may suggest a morning departure.
Las Vegas trips in an aircraft this size usually start at Harry Reid International (KLAS), which is open around the clock and is the only airport in the Las Vegas area with customs. Whether the aircraft can use a particular airport on your date depends on its weight and that day’s temperature and wind. The operator works that out, and your advisor will confirm it before anything is booked.
How Las Vegas Clients Use the Bombardier Challenger 600
This category suits a Las Vegas group that needs both distance and space, such as a touring party or a company team that will spend the flight working.
Tell us the route, how many people are flying and what they are bringing, and your advisor will confirm whether this aircraft suits the trip or suggest one that does.
