Smaller jets cannot cover this distance without refuelling, which adds about 45 minutes on the ground. The smallest class that flies it nonstop is the super midsize jet.
Travelling as a group of eight or more? A super midsize jet gives every guest a full seat and room for luggage, from $41,200 one way. Split ten ways, that is about $4,120 per person.
On a flight this long, cabin height and a proper galley matter. Ask for an aircraft with a flat floor and beds if you will fly overnight.
