BED IWS

Private jet charter from Bedford to Houston

The route from Bedford (BED) to Houston (IWS) covers approximately 2,588 km, about 4h 49m nonstop by private jet.

The leg runs south-west for 2,588 km: 3h 03m of cruise, 4h 49m gate to gate once taxi, climb and descent are counted. That block time, not the distance, is what the quote is written against.

Houston runs 1 hour behind Bedford, so a 09:00 departure lands at 11:33 local — worth checking against slot and curfew times at the arrival end.

The smallest cabin that covers 2,588 km without a fuel stop is the light jet at $2,500-4,500 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.
