The Aircraft That Does Everything
Most aircraft are built for one kind of mission. The Pilatus PC-12 was built for all of them. The same platform that carries executives to a corporate retreat in the morning can be reconfigured for cargo in the afternoon, repurposed as an air ambulance the following week, and pressed into service on a remote grass strip the week after that. Over 1,750 have been sold across more than 50 countries, and the range of roles they fill says more about the aircraft than any single specification could.
For a private passenger, that versatility means an aircraft that goes where others draw the line. Smaller airports, shorter runways, coastal strips, and destinations that fall entirely off the map for jets and larger turboprops are routine operations for the PC-12. A Pilatus PC-12 charter from Austin to Sarasota is straightforward. So is a flight to somewhere considerably harder to reach, with the aircraft adapting to what the route demands rather than the other way around.
The cabin seats up to nine, with a flat floor, leather seating, an enclosed lavatory, and a layout that can be arranged to meet the group’s needs. The single engine that makes the PC-12 so economical to operate is a Pratt and Whitney PT6 — one of the most proven powerplants in aviation, with over 400 million flight hours logged across the engine family globally.
A Pilatus PC-12 rental is often chosen by travelers who have looked at the options and decided they want more access and less cost rather than more aircraft than the trip requires. Celebrity Jet Charter works with operators whose crews know the PC-12 across the full range of what it was built to do.

Turbo Prop Jets
Cessna Grand Caravan EX
With strong payload capability, simple operation, and access to short or rough runways, the Grand Caravan EX is a practical choice for regional private flights, island routes, and utility travel.
King Air 90
Introduced in 1964 as the first aircraft in what would become the most successful turboprop family in aviation history, the King Air 90 was built on the Queen Air airframe with turboprop engines and a pressurized cabin. Over 20 variants followed across six decades of production. It seats up to six passengers with a range of around 1,000 nautical miles.
King Air 100
Introduced in 1969 as the first stretched King Air, the Model 100 extended the cabin of the King Air 90 by four feet and fitted a new wing derived from the Model 99 airliner. Three variants followed — the 100, A100, and B100 — each with refinements to engines, propellers, and performance. The aircraft seats up to eight passengers with a range of around 1,325 nautical miles.
King Air 200
Originally launched as the Super King Air in 1974, the Model 200 brought a new T-tail, longer wingspan, and more powerful engines to the King Air line. The B200 variant followed with even stronger PT6A-42 engines and lower operating costs. Both variants seat up to eight passengers with a range of around 1,750 nautical miles.
King Air 300 / 350
Entering service in 1984 as a more powerful successor to the 200, the King Air 300 brought stronger PT6A-60A engines and a cleaner airframe. Six years later, a stretched fuselage, winglets, and four extra cabin windows produced the 350. By 2009, the 350i had pushed noise levels and cabin comfort to a point where Beechcraft felt confident comparing them to light jets.
