Round-Trip Private Jet Charter Between Cape Girardeau and Chicago
The prices in the table are one-way. On a turboprop, the flight is just over an hour each way, so a same-day return works well for a day of meetings in Chicago. An overnight makes sense if your business runs into the evening or you want an early start the next day.
For a stay of a night or more, you have two options. The aircraft and crew can wait for you, with the crew’s hotel and daily expenses part of the round-trip quote for each night. Or the aircraft can leave and return for your trip home, which adds two positioning flights. On a leg this short, those extra flights are cheap, so one or two nights usually tips toward sending the aircraft home. A longer stay moves the balance toward waiting. Include your return date when you request a quote.
