Washington DC groups of ten or more on a long trip, such as a board heading to California or relatives going to a family wedding in Europe, are the reason heavy jets exist.

Why the Dassault Falcon 2000LXS Fits Washington DC
With 4,000 nautical miles of published range, it can fly between Washington Dulles and destinations such as Nassau, San Juan and London, allowing for reserves and routing. During presidential travel and national security events, the FAA can limit which DC-area airports accept private flights, and your advisor watches for those notices before you fly.
Most aircraft this size fly from Washington Dulles International, which is open around the clock and has US Customs, and the operator confirms the airport for your trip. The runway an aircraft needs is calculated by the operator for that day’s conditions, and we confirm it with the operator ahead of the trip.
How Washington DC Clients Use the Dassault Falcon 2000LXS
Many heavy jets are laid out in zones, so one part of the group can work at a table while another eats or sleeps.
Give us the destination, the passenger count and a rough idea of the luggage, and your advisor will tell you whether this aircraft suits the trip or point you to one that does it better.

Vetting Behind Every Trip
Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
