Private jet charter from Phoenix to Chicago

The route from Phoenix (PHX) to Chicago (MDW) covers approximately 2,320 km, with a median block time of 3h 36m on flights we actually tracked.

Traffic between Phoenix and Chicago is thin — 43 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 36m, about 52 minutes longer than a straight distance-and-cruise-speed estimate — taxi, routing and traffic flow account for the difference.

The Bombardier Challenger 350 dominates the route, accounting for 31% of tracked movements, followed by the Embraer Phenom 300 and the Cessna Citation Latitude — a useful sanity check when a broker offers you something much larger or much older.
