Embraer Phenom 300

Embraer Phenom 300 exterior

Overview

The Embraer Phenom 300 is the best-selling light jet in the world, and for good reason. Seating up to nine, it offers a large cabin for its class, class-leading speed and range, and enough runway performance to use secondary airports. For African charter it strikes an ideal balance: fast enough for long regional legs like Nairobi to Johannesburg with a fuel stop, comfortable enough for a full day of travel, and economical enough to keep private flying viable.

Chartering the Embraer Phenom 300 in Africa

For charter across Africa, the Embraer Phenom 300 is typically positioned from its home base to your departure airport, flown to your destination, and returned afterwards — the estimate you see on a route search already accounts for this full rotation. Whether it suits a given trip depends on the runway at each end, the distance, and how many seats you need. Search any route to see a live estimate for the Embraer Phenom 300 alongside every other aircraft that can fly it, then send an enquiry to have operators confirm the exact price.

Images are representative of the aircraft type — the actual aircraft, cabin layout and interior finish depend on the operating carrier. Specifications are typical planning figures for charter use and vary by individual aircraft configuration. Charter prices are computed estimates confirmed by the operating carrier through the inquiry process.
