Embraer Phenom 100 Very Light Jet Charter

Charter an Embraer Phenom 100 for efficient private travel with up to four passengers. Its compact cabin, modern avionics, low passenger count, and ability to use selected business-aviation airports make it a practical choice for short UK, European, and regional international journeys. Every Phenom 100 charter arranged by Kroovel is tailored around your route, passenger manifest, baggage volume, and schedule.

Is the Phenom 100 Right for You?

Choose the Phenom 100 if:

• You are traveling with a group of up to four passengers.
• Your planned route falls within its practical regional range.
• You value flexible departure times and private terminal privacy.
• You want direct access to smaller, convenient business-aviation airports.
• You are flying with moderate, standard-sized luggage.
• You prefer an efficient, cost-conscious very light jet (VLJ).

Consider a Larger Jet if:

• You are traveling with more than four passengers.
• Your group has substantial checked luggage, golf clubs, or ski equipment.
• You require a guaranteed fully enclosed lavatory or stand-up cabin headroom.
• Your route involves longer European, Middle Eastern, or oceanic sectors.
• You need a dedicated sleeping divan or wider workspace.
• Your planned route exceeds the practical non-stop range of a VLJ.

If your mission requires greater capacity or range, explore our Phenom 300E, Nextant 400XTi, Citation CJ4, or Learjet 60XR pages.

Four Seats, Four Missions

The Executive Day Trip

Two to four business colleagues fly from London to a European hub for client meetings, avoid scheduled terminal queues, hold confidential discussions in flight, and return home the same evening.

The Weekend Escape

A couple or small family departs from a regional business-aviation airport with luggage for a European weekend break, arriving directly near their destination without connection delays.

The Event Arrival

A small group flies to high-profile hospitality dates such as the Windsor Races or events at Wembley Stadium, coordinating seamlessly with waiting executive chauffeur vehicles.

The Regional Site Visit

A leadership team visits multiple regional sites, production plants, or client locations across the UK and nearby Europe within a single day, eliminating overnight hotel stays.

Small Aircraft, Efficient Mission

The Phenom 100 is engineered for short private-aviation missions rather than transcontinental sectors. Its published range of up to approximately 1,178 nautical miles is based on four occupants under specified reserve assumptions. Practical charter range depends on passenger count, baggage weight, ambient temperature, headwind components, and required fuel reserves.

Powered by two Pratt and Whitney Canada PW600-series engines, the aircraft climbs quickly to high flight altitudes, flying above adverse regional weather. Its commercial value lies in point-to-point speed, flexible scheduling, and operational efficiency.

A Private Cabin for Four

The Phenom 100 is designed for four passengers in an executive club-seating configuration. With a cabin length of approximately 11 feet, a width of 5 ft 1 in, and a height of 4 ft 11 in, it offers an ergonomic, compact layout tailored for seated comfort.

Designed in collaboration with BMW Group DesignworksUSA, the interior features large passenger windows, fold-out work tables, premium leather seating, and subtle ambient lighting. Depending on the specific aircraft variant, passengers may have access to integrated power outlets, light refreshment storage, and a lavatory. Lavatory arrangements vary across the fleet and may feature a belted toilet or an enclosed aft lavatory.

Pack Smart: Baggage and Equipment

The Phenom 100 provides approximately 64–70 cubic feet of total baggage and stowage capacity across external and internal compartments. While generous for a very light jet, available cargo space must be balanced against passenger headcount and fuel requirements.

Recommended Baggage Checklist:

• 4 standard medium suitcases or cabin bags.
• Executive briefcases and laptop totes.
• Soft-sided luggage (preferred for optimized packing).
• Golf bags, skis, pushchairs, or specialist items (must be declared in advance for payload and dimension verification).

Closer Airports, Easier Arrivals

A key advantage of the Phenom 100 is its airfield performance, allowing access to smaller regional business-aviation airports that may be less practical for larger aircraft. Utilizing regional airfields brings passengers closer to their final destination, drastically cutting ground transfer times.

Every airport option is evaluated for runway length, aircraft landing weight, operating hours, slot availability, weather conditions, handling facilities, and customs clearance before route confirmation.

Where It Works Best: Route Feasibility

• London to Paris / Amsterdam / Brussels: Rapid, direct hops connecting capital cities.
• London to Geneva / Zurich: Direct access to financial centers and alpine gateways.
• London to Dublin / Edinburgh: Efficient UK domestic and cross-border business routes.
• London to Nice: Feasible for four passengers with light-to-moderate luggage.
• London to Madrid: Feasible subject to aircraft variant, payload, and wind conditions.

Note: Routes such as London to Dubai, New York, or transatlantic sectors are beyond the practical capability of very light jets.

When to Choose Something Else

Consider requesting a larger light or midsize jet if:

1. Your group exceeds four adult passengers.
2. Every passenger is carrying heavy, hard-shell checked suitcases.
3. You are transporting oversized golf clubs, skis, or broadcast equipment.
4. Your route approaches or exceeds 1,000 nautical miles non-stop.
5. A guaranteed fully enclosed lavatory is mandatory for your party.
6. You require an inflight divan, sleeping setup, or full stand-up cabin.
