Seating
Both ACJ319neos on Airbus's charter listing seat 19. Other layouts exist, since every cabin is built to order.

The ACJ319neo for charter
The ACJ319neo is Airbus's longest-range narrowbody corporate jet, chosen when fifteen or more people want to cross an ocean together with a bedroom, a dining room and room to stand.
Who it suits
A family travelling with staff, a board with its advisers, or a principal with a security team, on legs of seven to fourteen hours: London to Los Angeles, Tokyo or the Gulf. The cabin is long enough for a stateroom aft, a dining room, a lounge and a staff section forward.
Against its rivals
An earlier ACJ319 has the same cabin with older engines, and its operators quote 3,800 to 5,600 nm against 6,000 to 6,300 nm for the neo. The ACJ320neo adds about 11 ft of cabin and gives up range. A Boeing Business Jet is the other natural choice; a Global 7500 suits twelve or fewer.
Where it falls short
Few exist: Airbus's own charter listing shows two. It needs around 6,200 ft of runway at full weight, cannot use weight-limited airports such as Teterboro, and the fuel tanks that give it range take most of the hold.

Range as published: 8 passengers on an NBAA IFR profile with up to five auxiliary tanks and the best engine option; operators of the charter aircraft quote 6,000 to 6,300 nm. On the day it depends on passengers and luggage, winds, the airports, temperature and the reserves the operator carries.

Inside the ACJ319neo
The cross-section is the one every A320-family ACJ shares: 12 ft 2 in wide and 7 ft 5 in tall over a flat floor, with 83 m² of cabin. The neo generation added a lower cabin altitude, which Airbus puts at an average below 5,900 ft, and noise down to about 45 dB. The layout is the first owner's, so we send the floor plan.
Sleeping
One charter aircraft sleeps 16 at night, in twelve single and two double berths. A stateroom with a full-size bed is common but not universal.
Cabin air
Average cabin altitude below 5,900 ft, high-efficiency filtration and, as an option, active humidification.
Quiet
Airbus quotes cabin noise down to 45 dB and calls it the quietest cabin in the sky.
Baggage
134 cu ft with five auxiliary tanks, about 28 large cases by Airbus's count; 215 cu ft with four. Tell us early if the group travels heavy.
Connectivity
The charter aircraft carry Ka-band or Ku-band satellite Wi-Fi. We confirm the system and the data plan on the aircraft we quote.
ACJ319neo range in practice
Airbus publishes 6,750 nm, more than fifteen hours, with eight passengers, NBAA IFR reserves and the best engine option. The operators of the aircraft on charter quote 6,000 to 6,300 nm, about fourteen hours, because they plan with a real cabin; westbound winter winds, a full hold and a hot departure cut that further.
At full weight the neo needs roughly 6,200 ft of runway, and weight limits, parking and slots steer most trips to Stansted, Luton, Le Bourget, JFK, Newark or Dubai.
- Non-stop London to Dubai, about 6 h 45 About 2,950 nm with every seat taken.
- Non-stop London to New York, about 7 h 30 Westbound into JFK or Newark with a wide fuel margin.
- Non-stop London to Los Angeles, about 11 h 15 About 4,730 nm, inside the operators' figures with a full cabin.
- Usually non-stop London to Tokyo, about 12 h 30 About 5,170 nm; a full cabin against winter headwinds may plan a stop.
- One fuel stop New York to Dubai, about 13 h About 5,940 nm: direct with a light cabin, otherwise a short stop in Europe.

Destinations and events
- Private jet to DubaiAl Maktoum's business terminal is open around the clock, and Dubai International puts you twenty minutes from Downtown when a slot is available.
- Private jet to LondonFive airports take private flights into London, more than any other city in Europe, and the right one follows the rest of your day.
- Private jet to New YorkFour airports take private flights into New York, and Teterboro puts you twenty-five minutes from Midtown.
- Private jet to the MaldivesThree airports take private jets into the Maldives, and the last leg to the villa is a seaplane or a speedboat, so the arrival time is planned around daylight.
ACJ319neo charter cost
An ACJ319neo is quoted for the whole trip. So few are on the charter market that the nearest may be a long positioning flight away, and that leg is part of the price. It usually costs more than an earlier ACJ319 with a similar layout, and landing, parking and handling fees follow its 78-tonne weight, so it pays airliner rates at most airports.
As a guide, VIP airliners charter at about $18,000 to $28,000 an hour for the aircraft, crew and fuel. Positioning, airport charges, overnight costs and the season are added for the trip, and the quote is one figure in writing.

Frequently asked questions
How many passengers does an ACJ319neo carry?
Both ACJ319neos on Airbus's charter listing seat 19, and that is the usual figure, though each cabin is built to order. Fewer can sleep than sit: one sleeps 16 in its night configuration. We send the floor plan of the specific aircraft with each quote.
What is the range of the ACJ319neo?
Airbus publishes up to 6,750 nm, more than fifteen hours, with eight passengers, NBAA IFR reserves and the best engine option. The operators of the charter aircraft quote 6,000 to 6,300 nm, about fourteen hours, depending on passengers, load and weather. That covers London to Los Angeles or Tokyo; New York to Dubai is at the edge with a full cabin.
What is the difference between the ACJ319neo and the ACJ319?
The neo has new-generation CFM LEAP-1A or Pratt & Whitney PW1100G engines and takes up to five auxiliary tanks, in the same fuselage. Airbus published 6,000 nm for the earlier ACJ319 and publishes 6,750 nm for the neo; in charter service the gap is wider, because many earlier aircraft carry fewer tanks. The neo cabin is also quieter, with a lower cabin altitude.
Does the ACJ319neo have a bedroom and a shower?
Most have a stateroom with a full-size bed, and many an en-suite shower, but both depend on the owner's design. We confirm them on the aircraft we quote and send photographs of the cabin as it is.
Can an ACJ319neo fly London to Tokyo non-stop?
Usually. London to Tokyo is about 5,170 nm and twelve and a half hours, inside the range the operators quote with a normal cabin. A full cabin against winter headwinds may need a stop, which the operator confirms when it plans the flight.
How many ACJ319neos are available for charter?
Very few. Airbus had orders for six by 2021, and its own charter listing shows two, both operated from Europe. If the dates are fixed, ask early; if they are not, an earlier ACJ319 or a Boeing Business Jet widens the choice.
ACJ319neo or ACJ320neo: which should I charter?
The ACJ320neo has about 11 ft more cabin, 96 m² against 83 m², and Airbus publishes 6,000 nm for it against 6,750 nm. Choose the 320neo for a larger group on legs of up to about twelve hours, and the 319neo when distance matters more than the extra room.
How much does it cost to charter an ACJ319neo?
It is quoted per trip: where the nearest aircraft is, the days on the ground, crew and airport fees move it as much as the flying time. The indicative VIP airliner band is shown above. Send us the route, dates and group size and we reply with written quotes, payable by bank transfer or in crypto.
