Private jet charter from Fort Myers to West Palm Beach
The route from Fort Myers (RSW) to West Palm Beach (PBI) covers approximately 166 km, with a median block time of 1h 25m on flights we actually tracked.
Traffic between Fort Myers and West Palm Beach is thin — 24 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 25m, about 73 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 Cessna Citation CJ3 and Cessna Citation Longitude close behind, so availability across cabin classes is usually good.
The return leg from West Palm Beach takes about the same time — 1h 26m against 1h 25m — so a same-day there-and-back is planned symmetrically.
The smallest cabin that covers 166 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.
