Why the Learjet 60 Fits Japan
With 2,405 nautical miles of published range, it can fly between Tokyo and destinations such as Seoul, Guam and Manila, allowing for reserves and routing. Late March into April, when the cherry trees flower, is a crowded time to travel in Japan, so reserve an aircraft early.
Most private flights into Tokyo use Haneda or Narita, and Narita closes overnight, so your advisor plans the arrival time around it. Runway needs are calculated by the operator for that day’s conditions, and we confirm them with the operator before the trip is booked.
How Japan Clients Use the Learjet 60
Families spending a week in Guam or Hong Kong often use this class for the flights out and back.
Tell your advisor the cities on the itinerary, the passenger count and how much everyone is packing, and you will get a straight view on whether this aircraft fits the trip.
