Hawker 850XP Private Jet Charter

About the Hawker Beechcraft Hawker 850XP

The 850XP belongs to a distinct moment in the long Hawker story: the years after Beechcraft acquired the line from Raytheon, when fresh ownership asked what could be added to a midsize design whose fundamentals were already a generation ahead of its rivals. The answer arrived in 2007 with subtle aerodynamic refinement and a thoroughly modernised systems package — the kind of update that does not need to brag because the original was already good.

The aerodynamic story is the practical one. Improved wingtip devices extended cruise efficiency at the high altitudes where the family flew best, with measurable gains in fuel consumption per kilometre flown. Combined with 3,458 km of range, 856 km/h cruise and seats for up to nine, the 850XP carries the European working map plus reach into North Africa and the Atlantic islands at hourly economics that surprised charter platforms when they ran the numbers against newer designs.

At around €5,700 per flight hour, the 850XP charges in the midsize median while delivering operational economics improved meaningfully over its immediate predecessor. For clients whose flight selections favour total cost per trip over delivery date, the type remains one of the most rational midsize quotes in European charter — a Hawker, sharpened by the Beechcraft years and still earning its keep.

Performance Excellence

Nine passengers, 3,458 km of range, 856 km/h cruise — figures the 850XP improved against its immediate predecessor through refined wingtips and refreshed systems, with measurable per-kilometre fuel benefits at long-range cruise altitudes. Two Honeywell TFE731-5BR engines provide proven thrust and the maintenance maturity of one of the segment's deepest installed bases. Avionics from the Pro Line family brought the cockpit fully into current generation, and the type's modest field demands keep it flexible across the European airports midsize operations actually use. At roughly €5,700 per flight hour, the Hawker 850XP charges what the segment median asks while delivering an operational profile sharpened by its Beechcraft-era engineering — the British midsize idea, kept current by people who knew not to break it.

Cabin Comfort

The 850XP cabin carries forward what the family had always offered passengers and adds the contemporary detailing the Beechcraft refresh brought to it. Stand-up width with a flat floor; nine seats arranged in a double-club configuration with substantial leather; a forward refreshment counter sized for service over two-to-three-hour legs; and an aft enclosed lavatory full enough that the type does not feel midsize on the basis the spec sheet says it is.

The refresh updated cabin lighting, finish materials and the entertainment-and-control system passengers actually touch. Connectivity was brought into the era of phones that expect signal everywhere. Windows remain unusually generous for the category, throwing the kind of natural light that makes refurbished interiors photograph better than they would have any right to. What the 850XP cabin asks you to notice is not novelty but composure — a space that absorbed thirty years of refinement and produced a quiet, working interior that aged into its proportions rather than fighting them. Frequent passengers describe it as the cabin that does not require getting used to: it simply works the way midsize cabins are supposed to.

High-speed WiFi keeps you connected throughout your flight, allowing you to work or stay in touch. A full galley enables fresh catering service during your journey. A private lavatory ensures comfort on longer flights.
