Private jet charter from Chicago to Cancun
The route from Chicago (MDW) to Cancun (CUN) covers approximately 2,309 km, with a median block time of 3h 12m on flights we actually tracked.
Traffic between Chicago and Cancun is thin — 12 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 12m, about 29 minutes longer than a straight distance-and-cruise-speed estimate — taxi, routing and traffic flow account for the difference.
The Eclipse 550 dominates the route, accounting for 50% of tracked movements, followed by the Cessna Citation Latitude and the Hawker 800 — a useful sanity check when a broker offers you something much larger or much older.
Flying back from Cancun is 68 minutes slower: 4h 20m against 3h 12m on this direction, measured on tracked flights. The headwind sits on the return leg here, which is why the outbound reads shorter. Plan a there-and-back with different block times, not one figure doubled — the Cancun to Chicago leg has its own page with its own numbers.
The smallest cabin that covers 2,309 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.
