Charter a King Air 350 Turboprop

The Beechcraft King Air 350 entered service in 1990 as the stretched, higher-weight flagship of the King Air 200 series, the most successful business turboprop family ever built. Powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-60A engines, it offers a roomy double-club cabin, twin-engine reliability, and the ability to operate fully loaded from runways under about 3,300 feet. With winglets, a strong payload, and a stand-up cabin, the King Air 350 has remained in continuous production for decades and is a mainstay of corporate, charter, government, and special-mission flying. Later 350i versions add cabin refinement and updated avionics.

The King Air 350 is a turboprop, not a jet, and that is central to its appeal. A turboprop uses propellers driven by turbine engines, far more fuel-efficient than jets at lower altitudes and shorter distances. The King Air 350 pairs this efficiency with a cabin that rivals or exceeds many light jets, plus the reassurance of two engines, at a much lower hourly cost. Clients wanting even more speed from a twin turboprop may also consider the Piaggio Avanti EVO, which cruises 80 knots faster in a sleeker airframe.

• Lower cost: at $1,800–$2,500 per hour, the King Air 350 runs well below the $2,300 to $3,800 of a light jet, despite a comparable or larger cabin.
• Roomy cabin: its double-club cabin often feels larger than a light jet's, seating up to 9 with near stand-up height.
• Twin-engine and short-field: two engines plus short-runway capability give access to smaller airports with added redundancy.
• Slower cruise: at 310 ktas it is slower than a light jet, so the time difference is modest on shorter regional trips.

The King Air 350 has one of the roomiest cabins in the turboprop class, often larger than a light jet's, seating up to 9 in a double-club layout. Many passengers are surprised by how spacious and quiet it is for an aircraft at this operating cost.

• The double-club cabin seats up to 9 with retracting worktables, and near stand-up height makes moving about the cabin easy for most passengers.
• Fourteen large windows light the cabin, with a private lavatory and a built-in refreshment center as standard.
• Baggage capacity of 57 cubic feet is generous and accessible in flight, handling luggage, golf clubs, and skis for the group.
• Later 350i aircraft add the Collins Venue cabin management system, reduced cabin noise, and Wi-Fi. Confirm amenities at booking.

The King Air 350 performs well on economical regional and group routes within its 1,806nm range, especially where short runways or a roomy cabin matter. These represent its most common charter missions.

King Air 350 charter rates run $1,800–$2,500 per flight hour, well below light-jet pricing and strong value for a roomy twin-engine aircraft.
