Charter of an Airbus ACJ220 starts at $10,000 to $15,000 per flight hour. Airbus introduced the ACJ220 in 2018 on the Airbus A220 commercial platform. It carries up to 18 passengers across a 3,200 nm range at 450 knots. The 73.2-foot cabin measures 10.7 feet wide and 7.2 feet tall. Two Pratt and Whitney PW1500G engines power the aircraft to a 41,000-foot ceiling at 2,500 fpm climb. Cabin noise is 58 dBa and pressurization holds a 6,000-foot equivalent altitude at cruise. Hogani Jets coordinates ACJ220 charters through licensed operators.

The Airbus ACJ220 is the lowest-rate VIP airliner available at $10,000 to $15,000/hr. At 58 dBa, it is the quietest Airbus narrow-body VIP airliner in service. The 73.2-foot cabin is the longest in the sub-$15,000/hr VIP airliner tier.

The 3,200 nm range is the key limitation. New York to London (3,450 nm) exceeds this range and requires a fuel stop. New York to Dublin (3,150 nm) and shorter European routes are achievable nonstop. For groups with routes under 3,200 nm, the ACJ220 delivers VIP airliner quality at the lowest rate available.

The ACJ220 is built on the Airbus A220 commercial platform, which Airbus acquired from Bombardier in 2018. Two Pratt and Whitney PW1500G geared turbofan engines produce improved fuel efficiency over conventional turbofans. The PW1500G is the exclusive engine for the A220 platform and contributes to the 58 dBa cabin noise performance.

The Airbus A220 was originally developed by Bombardier as the C Series. Airbus acquired the program in 2018 and rebranded it as the A220. The ACJ220 is the VIP charter variant. Three elements define the ACJ220 configuration.

Platform origin: The A220 was developed from scratch by Bombardier with a composite-intensive construction and Pratt and Whitney PW1500G geared turbofan engines. These engines deliver improved fuel efficiency and contribute directly to the 58 dBa cabin noise level. The A220 platform was not derived from any earlier Airbus design.

Range extension: Auxiliary fuel tanks extend the commercial A220's range to 3,200 nm for VIP operations. This covers routes including New York to Dublin and transcontinental US missions. Transatlantic reach to London from New York requires a fuel stop.

Interior: The aircraft is delivered as a green interior to VIP completion centers. Each ACJ220 completion is unique to the owner's specification. The 73.2-foot cabin supports three or four distinct zones in 18-passenger configurations.

The Airbus ACJ220 is based on the Airbus A220, originally developed by Bombardier. Pratt and Whitney PW1500G geared turbofan engines power the aircraft to a 3,200 nm range. Cabin noise is 58 dBa. The aircraft is delivered as a green interior to VIP completion centers to individual owner specification.

At $10,000 to $15,000/hr, the ACJ220 is the lowest-rate VIP airliner available. It is also the quietest Airbus narrow-body at 58 dBa. The trade is range: at 3,200 nm, it cannot reach London nonstop from New York. The ACJ318 and Lineage 1000E both cover that route.

The ACJ220 is the right choice for routes under 3,200 nm where the lowest rate and quietest Airbus narrow-body cabin matter most. The ACJ318 adds 1,600 nm of range and a wider cabin at $2,000 to $3,000/hr more. The Lineage 1000E adds 1,400 nm of range with a faster climb at a similar rate.

The ACJ220 cabin spans 73.2 feet across a single-deck layout. Every interior is completed to individual owner specification by third-party VIP completion centers. The 73.2-foot length is the longest in the sub-$15,000/hr VIP airliner tier. No two ACJ220 interiors are identical.

Forward lounge: Reception and lounge zone at the aircraft entry; configured for informal meetings.
Conference zone: Seating with worksurfaces; designed for in-flight meetings and document review.
Private suite: Partitioned sleeping or rest area; configured for rest on longer sectors.
Aft lavatory: Enclosed lavatory with full facilities; shower on full VIP completions.
Galley: Compact galley with catering support; service for up to 18 passengers.

The ACJ220 cabin is 73.2 feet long, 10.7 feet wide, and 7.2 feet tall. Cabin pressurization holds a 6,000-foot equivalent altitude at cruise. The aircraft carries up to 18 passengers in VIP charter configuration. Cabin noise is 58 dBa, the quietest Airbus narrow-body VIP airliner available.

The 58 dBa noise level is the quietest of any Airbus narrow-body VIP airliner available. It is 5 dBa quieter than the ACJ318 (63 dBa) and 8 dBa noisier than the Embraer Lineage 1000E (50 dBa). The Pratt and Whitney PW1500G geared turbofan engines are a primary contributor to this acoustic performance.

The 3,200 nm range covers North Atlantic routes to Ireland and Iceland nonstop from New York. New York to London (3,450 nm) exceeds range and requires a fuel stop. All US transcontinental routes and Caribbean routes are within nonstop range.

Route	ICAO Codes	Est. Flight Time	Notes
New York to Dublin	KTEB to EIDW	~6h 30m	~3,150 nm; within 3,200 nm range
New York to Reykjavik	KTEB to BIRK	~5h 45m	~2,850 nm; comfortably within range
Los Angeles to New York	KVNY to KTEB	~5h 30m	2,450 nm; transcontinental nonstop
New York to Miami	KTEB to KMIA	~3h 00m	~1,280 nm; domestic nonstop

Note: New York to London (3,450 nm) exceeds the 3,200 nm range. A fuel stop in Iceland or Ireland is required for the full transatlantic routing from New York. Confirm routing with Hogani Jets before booking.

Can the Airbus ACJ220 fly New York to London nonstop?

No. New York to London is approximately 3,450 nautical miles, which exceeds the 3,200 nm range. A fuel stop in Iceland (Reykjavik, 2,850 nm from New York) or Ireland (Dublin, 3,150 nm) is required. New York to Dublin nonstop is achievable within the 3,200 nm range.

How many passengers can the Airbus ACJ220 carry?

The ACJ220 carries up to 18 passengers in VIP charter configuration. This matches the ACJ318. Exact layout depends on the specific completion installed on each aircraft.

What is the cabin size of the Airbus ACJ220?

The ACJ220 cabin is 73.2 feet long, 10.7 feet wide, and 7.2 feet tall. At 73.2 feet, it is the longest cabin in the sub-$15,000/hr VIP airliner tier, longer than the ACJ318 (55.5 ft) and the Lineage 1000E (65.6 ft).

Why is the ACJ220 the quietest Airbus narrow-body VIP airliner?

The ACJ220 has a cabin noise level of 58 dBa. The Pratt and Whitney PW1500G geared turbofan engines are among the quietest turbofans available, producing less noise than conventional turbofans. At 58 dBa, the ACJ220 is 5 dBa quieter than the ACJ318 (63 dBa).

What is the platform origin of the Airbus ACJ220?

The A220 was originally developed by Bombardier as the C Series CS100/CS300. Airbus acquired the program in 2018 and rebranded it as the Airbus A220.
