Charter of an Embraer Legacy 450 starts at $4,000 to $5,500 per flight hour, above the standard midsize band, reflecting range and cabin size that border the super-midsize class. The Legacy 450 is a midsize jet manufactured by Embraer, produced from 2015 to 2019, seating up to nine passengers with a range of 2,904 nautical miles (3,342 miles) and a 466-knot cruise speed (536 mph). It was designed as a companion to the larger Legacy 500, sharing the same cabin cross-section on a shorter fuselage. Hogani Jets coordinates each Legacy 450 charter through licensed Part 135 operators.

Embraer designed the Legacy 450 to push past the boundaries of the traditional midsize class, pairing a wide, tall cabin with range that edges into super-midsize territory. Some brokers classify the Legacy 450 outright as a super-midsize jet, similar to how the Citation Latitude is sometimes classified, which is part of why Hogani Jets prices it above the standard midsize rate band.

Twin Honeywell HTF7500E turbofans and a Rockwell Collins ProLine Fusion flight deck, a newer generation than the ProLine 21 found on several other midsize jets, give the Legacy 450 modern performance and a contemporary cockpit. It suits travelers who want one of the largest cabins in the midsize category on long domestic routes.

The Legacy 450 entered service in 2015 as Embraer's companion aircraft to the larger Legacy 500, sharing the same cabin cross-section on a shorter airframe. A Collins ProLine Fusion avionics suite and twin HTF7500E turbofans define this variant.

At 6.8 feet wide and 24.0 feet long, the Legacy 450 has one of the largest cabins of any midsize jet, designed by Embraer to be the largest in its class at release. Combined with a 2,904-nautical-mile range that borders super-midsize territory, it suits travelers who want maximum cabin room without stepping up to a full super-midsize aircraft and its higher hourly rate.

A midsize jet trades a light jet's lower hourly rate for more cabin room, more range, and a higher service ceiling. At $4,000 to $5,500 per hour, the Legacy 450 runs above a light jet such as the Citation CJ3, but its 2,904-nautical-mile range and wide cabin suit long domestic trips a light jet cannot cover.

  • More range: 2,904 nm versus roughly 1,800 to 2,100 nm for most light jets, bordering super-midsize range.
  • Higher cost: $4,000 to $5,500 per hour versus $2,500 to $3,500 for a light jet, among the highest midsize rates.
  • Wider cabin: 6.8 feet of width, the widest in the midsize comparison set, versus a light jet's narrower cabin.
  • Best mission: long domestic trips for up to nine passengers where cabin width and range outweigh the light jet's lower hourly rate.

The Legacy 450 typically seats seven passengers, with capacity up to nine depending on floor plan.

  • Multiple floor plan configurations are available, with individual workstations at select seats.
  • Available connectivity options include wireless high-speed internet and onboard entertainment systems; exact equipment varies by aircraft.
  • A meeting table configuration supports onboard business use on longer flights.
  • Confirm exact cabin configuration, connectivity, and baggage allowance at booking, as equipment varies by aircraft.

The Legacy 450 performs best on long domestic routes where its wide cabin and near-super-midsize range outperform a standard midsize jet.

The most common cross-shop comparisons are the Cessna Citation Latitude, a similarly premium-priced midsize jet, and the Gulfstream G150, which has comparable range at a lower rate. The Legacy 450 wins on cabin width; the Latitude offers a flat floor, and the G150 offers a lower entry rate.

The Legacy 450 cruises at 466 knots true airspeed (536 mph), among the fastest cruise speeds in the midsize category.

Are empty leg flights available on the Legacy 450?
