Hawker 850XP.

For those seeking a refined midsize jet experience that balances impressive range with genuine cabin comfort, a Hawker 850XP charter through Prime Jet Services delivers exactly that. As an evolution of the celebrated Hawker series, the 850XP stands apart in the Midsize Jet category thanks to its aerodynamically efficient winglets, extended range of 2,642 nm, and a wide, well-appointed cabin capable of accommodating up to nine passengers. Whether you are connecting Dubai with a regional hub or stretching across to southern Europe, the Hawker 850XP offers the speed and capacity to do it in comfort and style.

History & Development

The Hawker 850XP was introduced in 2006 by Hawker Beechcraft as a direct successor to the Hawker 800XP, incorporating winglet technology borrowed from large-cabin platforms to meaningfully improve fuel efficiency and extend range. The programme built upon decades of development tracing back to the original British Aerospace 125, a pedigree that gave the 850XP exceptional structural maturity and reliability. By fitting the proven Honeywell TFE731-5BR engines alongside the new winglets, Beechcraft achieved a measurable boost in range and climb performance without significantly altering the aircraft’s well-regarded cabin cross-section. The 850XP quickly found favour among corporate operators worldwide who needed transatlantic-adjacent range from a competitively priced midsize platform.

Cabin & Comfort

The Hawker 850XP cabin measures 6.5 metres in length with a generous width of 1.83 metres and a standing height of 1.75 metres — dimensions that feel noticeably spacious for the midsize category. A typical configuration features eight to nine club-style seats arranged in forward and aft-facing pairs, offering every passenger a window and easy access to the aisle. The cabin is notably well-insulated for its class, with the twin Honeywell turbofans positioned to reduce interior noise and support relaxed conversation or focused work throughout the flight. A full-service forward galley, a private enclosed lavatory at the rear, and a dedicated baggage compartment with 50 cu ft of accessible storage round out the onboard experience, while modern avionics suites support in-flight connectivity options for business travellers.

Ideal Routes from Dubai

With a range of 2,642 nm, the Hawker 850XP is ideally suited to regional and medium-haul routes from Dubai, covering destinations across the Gulf, South Asia, East Africa, and southern Europe. Typical routes include Dubai to Mumbai (approximately 1 hour 45 minutes), Dubai to Nairobi (around 3 hours 30 minutes), Dubai to Athens (approximately 3 hours 45 minutes), and Dubai to Almaty in Kazakhstan (roughly 3 hours). These city pairs represent some of the most in-demand corridors for private travel from the UAE, and the 850XP handles all of them with range to spare.

Clients considering the Hawker 850XP often evaluate it alongside other capable jets in the midsize and super-midsize segments before confirming their choice. The Citation Latitude offers a wider flat-floor cabin for those prioritising interior volume, while the Challenger 350 steps into the super-midsize category with greater range and a larger baggage hold — and the Phenom 300E presents a lighter, more economical alternative for shorter regional sectors.
