Private jet charter from Chicago to Fort Myers

The route from Chicago (MDW) to Fort Myers (RSW) covers approximately 1,782 km, with a median block time of 3h 40m on flights we actually tracked.

Traffic between Chicago and Fort Myers is thin — 16 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 3h 40m, about 94 minutes longer than a straight distance-and-cruise-speed estimate — taxi, routing and traffic flow account for the difference.

No single type owns this route: the Embraer Phenom 300 leads with 27% of movements, with the Bombardier Global 5000 and Bombardier Global Express close behind, so availability across cabin classes is usually good.
