Hogani Jets coordinates Beechcraft King Air 350 charter flights through licensed Part 135 operators, matching this roomy twin-engine turboprop to economical group trips and short-field destinations. The King Air 350 is the flagship of the legendary King Air line, the best-selling business turboprop family ever built, offering a stand-up double-club cabin, twin-engine reassurance, and short-field access at a fraction of a jet's cost. Manufactured by Beechcraft (Textron Aviation), it seats up to 9 passengers with a range of 2,078 miles (1,806 nm) and a cruise speed of 357 mph (310 ktas). King Air 350 charter rates run $1,600 to $2,200 per flight hour, well below light-jet pricing, with one-way trip pricing from roughly $5,000 to $9,500 depending on route. Its strengths are a large cabin, twin-engine operation, low cost, and short-field capability, not speed. The King Air 350 suits groups who want a roomy, economical aircraft for regional trips and access to smaller airports. For faster or longer trips, a light jet is the step up.

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.

  • Lower cost: at $1,600 to $2,200 per hour, the King Air 350 runs well below the $2,500 to $3,500 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 11 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.

Note: Baggage note for the King Air 350: The 57 cubic foot hold, accessible in flight, comfortably handles luggage and gear for a full cabin. Its cabin and baggage space often exceed those of light jets at a lower hourly rate.

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.
