Private jet charter from San Francisco to Burbank
The route from San Francisco (SFO) to Burbank (BUR) covers approximately 525 km, with a median block time of 53m on flights we actually tracked.
San Francisco to Burbank is a high-frequency business aviation sector: 279 private flights were tracked over the last 12 months, roughly 23 a month.
Median block time on tracked flights is 53m, about 16 minutes longer than a straight distance-and-cruise-speed estimate — taxi, routing and traffic flow account for the difference.
Traffic is strongly seasonal — January carried 50 flights against 8 in May, a 6.2× swing. Expect tighter availability and firmer quotes at the peak.
No single type owns this route: the Bombardier Challenger 350 leads with 24% of movements, with the Cessna Citation Longitude and Embraer Phenom 300 close behind, so availability across cabin classes is usually good.
The return leg from Burbank takes about the same time — 59m against 53m — so a same-day there-and-back is planned symmetrically.
The smallest cabin that covers 525 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.
