Why a super-midsize jet fits this trip
For this 2,195-nautical-mile leg, a super-midsize jet is the most efficient choice because it flies nonstop in 5 hours 12 minutes. The Gulfstream G280 and Citation X+ both cover the distance with range to spare — 3,600 and 3,460 nautical miles respectively — and seat up to 9 passengers. Heavy jets also fly nonstop but cost more.
Light and midsize jets are cheaper upfront (from $24,500 and $32,500) but need a fuel stop, stretching travel time to over 6 hours. A turboprop takes 8 hours 44 minutes and is the slowest option on the Nassau run. When time matters, the super-midsize premium buys a shorter, simpler day.

When to book your jet to Nassau
Demand for private jet Los Angeles to Nassau peaks from December through April, when Angelenos escape to warmer climates. Holiday weeks and spring break see the highest prices. Booking at least 3-4 weeks ahead can secure better rates and aircraft availability. Summer offers more flexibility, though afternoon thunderstorms can cause delays.
If your travel dates are flexible, then mid-week departures often have more operator options. When you need a specific date, then book early to avoid the scramble for super-midsize jets. For a round-trip, the return leg on the same aircraft may reduce costs versus booking separately. But empty-leg opportunities can occasionally lower the price of a one-way charter — ask your broker.
