What counts as a 16 passenger private jet
The Bombardier Challenger 604, Airbus ACJ319, Gulfstream G650 and Gulfstream G550 are the 16-seat jets you will most often be offered in Germany. A heavy jet like these costs about €13,440 to €16,490 per flight hour to charter, and from about $11.45 million to buy.
These are typical passenger seats for each model, not the certified maximum. Pilots and cabin crew sit separately.
4 models on Germany's LBA list of licensed air carriers seat 16 or more; together they make up 20 aircraft.
Seats are not the only limit. Bags, fuel and runway length all count: a full 16-seat cabin on a long or hot-weather leg may need a fuel stop. If your group fills every seat, look at a 20 passenger private jet.
Charter is priced for the whole aircraft by the flight hour: about €13,440 to €16,490 for a heavy jet in Germany. Tell us the route and we confirm an aircraft and price from licensed operators in Germany.

Business jets are certified for at most 19 passengers, so larger groups fly regional airliners on charter; ask the desk.
