Why a light jet fits this trip
A light jet is the fit because 732 nautical miles sits well inside the range of the HondaJet Elite II (1,550 nm) and the Cessna Citation CJ4 Gen2 (2,165 nm), so you get a nonstop flight at 2h 05m without paying for cabin space the route does not need. The CJ4 Gen2 seats up to 7 passengers with 71 cubic feet of baggage, enough for a summer rental with golf clubs.
The turboprop is the budget alternative at 2h 52m, which works if your schedule is loose. A midsize or super-midsize jet trims only minutes off the flight and adds several thousand dollars, so it earns its keep only when cabin comfort matters more than price.

Leaving Nashville
Three Nashville-area airports serve this route: Smyrna, Nashville International and John C Tune
Smyrna Airport (KMQY) has an 8,038-foot runway and suits most light jet departures. Nashville International (KBNA) offers the longest runway at 11,030 feet but more airline traffic to work around. John C Tune (KJWN) is the closest-in field at 6,001 feet, convenient for a quick board but tighter for some aircraft. Your operator will name the field that fits the tail; then the car can head that way.
Arriving at The Hamptons
Flights land at Town of East Hampton Airport, the South Fork's own field with a 4,255-foot runway
KHTO is a short hop from Sag Harbor, Amagansett and Montauk, so the drive after landing is measured in minutes, not the hours a New York City arrival would add. The runway is shorter than the Nashville fields, and summer heat trims performance further, so lighter aircraft and careful weight planning matter. When East Hampton closes or caps traffic in peak season, your plan may shift to a nearby field, and the operator will say so before you book. Plan the ground leg once the tail number is set.
| Airport | Code | Runway |
|---|---|---|
| Town of East Hampton Airport | KHTO / HTO | 4,255 ft |
| Smyrna Airport | KMQY / MQY | 8,038 ft |
| Nashville International Airport | KBNA / BNA | 11,030 ft |
| John C Tune Airport | KJWN | 6,001 ft |
When to book Nashville to The Hamptons
Memorial Day through Labor Day is peak, and light jet quotes from Nashville climb accordingly
If you want a Friday afternoon departure in July, then book four to six weeks out; the best tails go first and the price band widens as the calendar fills. Midweek and off-season dates hold closer to the low end of the range.
If your trip is a same-day round trip, then expect to pay for crew duty time on both ends even though the flight is 2h 05m each way. Returning the same evening means the aircraft waits, and that wait is priced in. If the return leg falls on a Sunday in August, then compare a Monday morning departure; the fare difference can be meaningful. Booking through a DOT Part 295 broker means the quote is a comparison across operators, not one fleet's list.

FAQs on this route
How long is a private jet charter Nashville to The Hamptons?
The flight is 732 nautical miles, or 842 statute miles, and a light jet covers it nonstop in about 2h 05m. A turboprop needs 2h 52m, and a super-midsize trims it to 1h 56m. Block time on the day can stretch with winds, routing and East Hampton arrival slots.
What does this charter cost?
A light jet runs an estimated $8,000 to $12,000 one way. A turboprop sits at $6,500 to $10,000, and a super-midsize at $14,000 to $19,500. These are estimates for the aircraft, not per seat, and they shift with date, demand and crew duty. A written quote from your operator is the number that counts.
Which airports does the flight use?
On the Nashville end, Smyrna (KMQY), Nashville International (KBNA) and John C Tune (KJWN) all work, with runways of 8,038, 11,030 and 6,001 feet. On the far end, Town of East Hampton (KHTO) has a 4,255-foot runway. Your operator picks the field that fits the aircraft and your side of town.
Can I fly this route in one day and come back?
Yes. A 2h 05m leg each way fits a same-day round trip, but you pay for the aircraft and crew to wait at East Hampton through the day. If the stay runs longer, then the operator may price a return leg on a separate tail. Ask for both versions before deciding.
Who regulates these flights?
Flights are flown by FAA Part 135 operators who hold operational control and keep their own safety and maintenance oversight. As a charter broker, we act as an agent under DOT Part 295 and arrange the flight rather than fly it. This trip stays domestic, so no customs stop is needed, though returning aircraft face standard security screening for larger cabins.
What if East Hampton is closed or busy?
In peak summer, KHTO can face traffic limits and closures, and its 4,255-foot runway is the constraint. When that happens, then the flight may route to a nearby field and finish by car. Your operator will name the alternative before departure, and the ground time changes accordingly.
