Private jet charter from St Louis to Tampa
The route from St Louis (STL) to Tampa (TPA) covers approximately 1,400 km, with a median block time of 3h 05m on flights we actually tracked.
Traffic between St Louis and Tampa is thin — 36 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 05m, about 86 minutes longer than a straight distance-and-cruise-speed estimate — taxi, routing and traffic flow account for the difference.
The Gulfstream G280 dominates the route, accounting for 63% of tracked movements, followed by the Embraer Legacy 450 and the Bombardier Challenger 350 — a useful sanity check when a broker offers you something much larger or much older.
Flying back from Tampa is 26 minutes quicker: 2h 39m against 3h 05m on this direction, measured on tracked flights. Winds aloft run west to east at these latitudes, so the eastbound leg rides the jet stream and the westbound one fights it. Plan a there-and-back with different block times, not one figure doubled — the Tampa to St Louis leg has its own page with its own numbers.
The smallest cabin that covers 1,400 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.
