Private jet charter from Indianapolis to Fort Wayne
The route from Indianapolis (IND) to Fort Wayne (FWA) covers approximately 168 km, with a median block time of 56m on flights we actually tracked.
Traffic between Indianapolis and Fort Wayne is thin — 14 private flights tracked in 12 months, so aircraft are usually positioned in from elsewhere and one-way pricing is the norm.
Median block time on tracked flights is 56m, about 44 minutes longer than a straight distance-and-cruise-speed estimate — taxi, routing and traffic flow account for the difference.
The Cessna Citation Excel dominates the route, accounting for 33% of tracked movements, followed by the Pilatus PC-12 and the Cirrus Vision Jet — a useful sanity check when a broker offers you something much larger or much older.
The smallest cabin that covers 168 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.
