Private jet charter from Yellowknife to Seattle

The route from Yellowknife (YZF) to Seattle (BFI) covers approximately 1,732 km, about 3h 23m nonstop by private jet.

We did not observe a regular nonstop pattern between Yellowknife and Seattle over the last 12 months, so this sector is normally flown ad hoc. Departure-end activity is solid though: 1,567 business aircraft movements were tracked at Yellowknife, around 131 a month.

Aircraft based at or passing through Yellowknife are led by the Beechcraft King Air 200 and the Pilatus PC-12, with an average build year of 2010 — that is the pool a charter for this route is most likely to come from.

At the arrival end, Seattle recorded 20,588 tracked movements over the same period (about 1,716 a month), most often the Pilatus PC-12.

Departures from Yellowknife are weekday-led (61% of movements Monday to Thursday) — the classic sign of a business field, where weekend positioning is often available at short notice.

The smallest cabin that covers 1,732 km without a fuel stop is the very light jet at $1,500-4,500 an hour, and the type most often quoted here is the Bombardier Challenger 350. How the hourly rate turns into a total is set out in the private jet cost guide, and if the dates are loose it is worth checking empty leg flights on this direction first.
