Why the Learjet 55 Fits Las Vegas

With 2,165 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from Las Vegas to destinations such as Aspen, Dallas and Atlanta, allowing for reserves and routing. CES in January and the NBAA business aviation convention in October fill the Las Vegas ramps, so aircraft for those weeks are worth booking early.

Las Vegas trips in this class usually run from Harry Reid International (KLAS), Henderson Executive (KHND) or North Las Vegas (KVGT), depending on where you are staying and the time of day. 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 Learjet 55

This is the category for a full day of travel. Las Vegas clients book midsize jets for trips across several states, and for convention groups that want to work on the way home.

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.
