Chicago to New York by class

Under two hours block time. A Citation CJ3+ or Phenom 300E from Chicago Executive to Teterboro covers it nonstop with a full cabin at the best cost-per-seat, and delivers under 3h 30m door-to-door versus 5-6h on the airlines.

Whole-aircraft one-way planning ranges in USD, not per-person fares or live availability. The headline uses the recommended option; other classes and connecting itineraries can cost differently. The enquiry form produces a separate EUR calculation for your inputs, not a currency conversion of these guide prices. Confirm taxes, positioning, handling, transfers and the final total in a written quote.
