Manufacturer-published figures for a typical configuration. Individual aircraft vary with model year, interior fit and optional equipment, and runway requirements move considerably with altitude, temperature and weight — the operator's own performance data governs every trip.

Our read

What it does well, and what it costs you.

What it does well

6 ft cabin width — noticeably roomier than rivals
Long cabin with a true club-four plus divan layout
Often priced below newer midsize types

The trade-off

An older design: expect a longer runway requirement and dated cabin tech on some tails.

We publish the downside because you would find it anyway, and because we do not own this aircraft — there is no reason for us to oversell it.

Runway

Where it can land.

The Hawker 800XP needs about 5,032 ft at sea level, which clears 1,317 of the 2,746 US fields we publish. Thin air needs more of it — roughly 3% per 1,000 ft of elevation — so the demanding fields below are worked out at their own altitude, not at sea level.

Indicative, and not a performance calculation. Real balanced field length depends on temperature, weight, runway slope and the day — and it is the operator who signs for it. Treat this as the question to ask, not the answer.

Questions

Hawker 800XP, answered

How many passengers does the Hawker 800XP carry?

Typically 8 in a charter configuration. Exact seating varies by operator, since interiors differ between individual aircraft — we confirm the layout of the specific tail before you accept a quote.

What is the range of the Hawker 800XP?

Published range is about 2,540 nautical miles at 448 knots. Real-world range is lower with a full cabin, strong headwinds or hot-and-high departures, which is exactly the kind of thing we check before proposing it for your trip.

What runway does the Hawker 800XP need?

Around 5,032 ft at sea level on a standard day near maximum weight. Altitude, temperature and weight change this significantly — the operator's performance data is what governs whether it can use your airport.

How much does it cost to charter a Hawker 800XP?

We publish an indicative market range for this cabin class ($3,500–$6,000 per hour) so you can size the trip, not a firm rate for this aircraft — the real number depends on where the aircraft is positioned, the season and the airports, which is why we source your specific trip. Altessair adds a disclosed brokerage fee to the operator's price, shown as a separate line on every quote.
