Private Jet from Austin, US (AUS) to Phoenix, US (PHX)

Private jet charter from Austin to Phoenix

The route from Austin (AUS) to Phoenix (PHX) covers approximately 1,401 km, with a median block time of 2h 41m on flights we actually tracked.

84 private flights from Austin to Phoenix were tracked over the last 12 months — around 7 a month, a steady but not saturated sector.

Median block time on tracked flights is 2h 41m, about 62 minutes longer than a straight distance-and-cruise-speed estimate — taxi, routing and traffic flow account for the difference.

Traffic is strongly seasonal — April carried 13 flights against 2 in June, a 6.5× swing. Expect tighter availability and firmer quotes at the peak.

The Embraer Phenom 300 dominates the route, accounting for 33% of tracked movements, followed by the Cessna Citation Latitude and the Cessna Citation Excel — a useful sanity check when a broker offers you something much larger or much older.

Flying back from Phoenix is 32 minutes quicker: 2h 09m against 2h 41m on this direction, measured on tracked flights. Winds aloft run west to east at these latitudes, so the eastbound leg rides the jet stream and the westbound one fights it. Plan a there-and-back with different block times, not one figure doubled — the Phoenix to Austin leg has its own page with its own numbers.

The smallest cabin that covers 1,401 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.
