SFO HND

Private jet charter from San Francisco to Tokyo

The route from San Francisco (SFO) to Tokyo (HND) covers approximately 8,286 km, about 14h 19m nonstop by private jet.

We did not observe a regular nonstop pattern between San Francisco and Tokyo over the last 12 months, so this sector is normally flown ad hoc. Departure-end activity is solid though: 16,925 business aircraft movements were tracked at San Francisco, around 1,410 a month.

Aircraft based at or passing through San Francisco are led by the Bombardier Challenger 350 and the Embraer Phenom 300, with an average build year of 2013 — that is the pool a charter for this route is most likely to come from.

At the arrival end, Tokyo recorded 3,684 tracked movements over the same period (about 307 a month), most often the Gulfstream V.

Departures from San Francisco are weekday-led (61% of movements Monday to Thursday) — the classic sign of a business field, where weekend positioning is often available at short notice.

The smallest cabin that covers 8,286 km without a fuel stop is the ultra long range jet at $10,000-15,000 an hour, and the type most often quoted here is the Bombardier Global 7500. 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.
