Flying between Chicago and Aspen by business aviation avoids connections, check-in queues and the unpredictability of commercial flights. On arrival, Aspen-Pitkin County offers a separate terminal and a vehicle drop-off at the foot of the aircraft steps.
The Hawker 900XP positioned on this route offers 8 seats and a cruise speed of 830 km/h, giving 2 h 22 door-to-door over the 1,638 km segment.
The €12,200 figure is all-inclusive for the whole aircraft: crew, fuel, landing and parking fees, operator's insurance, standard catering and handling at both ends. Specific passenger taxes, premium catering requests and ground transfers are quoted separately and confirmed before the charter contract is issued.
Demand is not linear: trade shows, holiday periods and major sporting events concentrate movements and make slots scarce. Conversely, mid-week lulls multiply empty return flights. It is precisely in these windows that the best quotes appear on this route.
An empty leg is the repositioning of an aircraft after a mission. The operator already bears the fuel cost, crew and fees: reselling the segment at €12,200 rather than flying it empty remains rational for them. The trade-off is simple: the time window is narrow and the offer disappears as soon as a full charter is confirmed on the same aircraft.
This segment is advertised for departure this weekend. On a route such as Chicago – Aspen, the average lifespan of a repositioning offer is measured in hours, not days. A request submitted before midday typically receives an operator confirmation the same day, subject to crew availability and slot allocation.
The Hawker 900XP generally accepts cabin and hold luggage for all 8 seats, within limits specific to each airframe. Ski equipment, golf clubs, fragile instruments or pets in the cabin: mention it in your request, and the operator will confirm feasibility before any firm booking.
Cancellation terms are those of the operator, communicated with the charter contract before any payment. EmptyFast assumes no operational or financial liability in the event of cancellation, delay or change of aircraft: see the Disclaimer page for full details of the clauses.
The current offer shows €12,200 for the whole aircraft (Hawker 900XP). The final rate depends on the date, the aircraft actually available and local taxes.
About 2 h 22 of block time for 1,638 km, excluding taxi delays. Add around twenty minutes of departure formalities and five to ten minutes on arrival.
Technically, a departure can be arranged in four to six hours if an aircraft and crew are available. In practice, confirming twenty-four hours ahead secures slots at Chicago and Aspen much more reliably.
