Private jet charter from Tampa to Fort Myers
The route from Tampa (TPA) to Fort Myers (RSW) covers approximately 178 km, with a median block time of 3h 54m on flights we actually tracked.
Traffic between Tampa and Fort Myers is thin — 13 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 54m, about 221 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 Cessna Citation Excel leads with 25% of movements, with the Pilatus PC-24 and Embraer Phenom 300 close behind, so availability across cabin classes is usually good.
The smallest cabin that covers 178 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.
