Turboprops are among the aircraft India Private Jets arranges for trips to and from India. The types we arrange seat 4 to 14 passengers, with published ranges from 840 to 1,806 nautical miles. Which one suits your trip depends on the passenger count, the baggage, the distance and the airports at both ends.
Typical Aircraft
The types we arrange in this category are Beechcraft Denali, Beechcraft King Air 100, Beechcraft King Air 250, Beechcraft King Air 260, Beechcraft King Air 360, Beechcraft King Air C90GTx, Cessna Grand Caravan 208B, Daher TBM 900, King Air 200, King Air 350, King Air 90, Piaggio Avanti II, Pilatus PC-12, Socata TBM 700 and Socata TBM 850.
When a Turboprop Fits an India Trip
Turboprops suit short trips within India with a small group, and they can use smaller airports that larger jets do not use. Flights between two Indian cities are flown by Indian charter operators certified by the DGCA, and flights over water are planned with the operator case by case.
Cabin size, baggage space and range vary across these 15 types, so send us the details and we will narrow the list down for you.
The runway a particular aircraft needs is calculated by the operator for that day’s conditions, and your advisor confirms it with the operator before anything is booked.
Vetting Behind Every Trip
Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
India-Specific Patterns We Plan Around
Most international private flights arrive at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International or Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International, and flights between two Indian cities are flown by Indian charter operators certified by the DGCA, India’s civil aviation authority. Udaipur and Jodhpur are domestic airports, so international guests clear in at Delhi, Mumbai or Jaipur first. The monsoon season brings heavy rain from June to September, Delhi can see dense fog from mid-December to early February, and cyclones can affect the coasts. Diwali and the winter wedding season book up first, and the routing and any fuel stop on a long trip are confirmed with the operator before you book.
