Private jet charter from Indianapolis to Cincinnati
The route from Indianapolis (IND) to Cincinnati (LUK) covers approximately 175 km, with a median block time of 1h 08m on flights we actually tracked.
Traffic between Indianapolis and Cincinnati is thin — 23 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 1h 08m, about 56 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 31% of tracked movements, followed by the Cessna Citation Latitude and the Embraer Phenom 300 — a useful sanity check when a broker offers you something much larger or much older.
Flying back from Cincinnati is 14 minutes quicker: 54m against 1h 08m 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 Cincinnati to Indianapolis leg has its own page with its own numbers.
The smallest cabin that covers 175 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.
