With a full cabin
Estimates are computed from great-circle distance, published cruise speeds, and modeled allowances for routing, climb, descent and prevailing winds — the same engine the configurator uses. They are ranges rather than single numbers because weather and air traffic control do not deal in single numbers. Party size assumed: six.
Aircraft
Each of these covers the routing nonstop with the cabin filled — checked against realistic full-cabin range, not a manufacturer headline.
1h 09m – 1h 21m
The better-suited option on a leg this short. It is built for the profile, and it gets into shorter fields than a jet will take.
53m – 1h 05m
More cabin, more baggage and a faster cruise. Worth the additional hours if the flight is long or the party is traveling heavy.
Departing Philadelphia
Northeast Philadelphia is the general aviation field for the city and the Bucks County corridor, and it avoids PHL entirely — which on a weekday afternoon is worth a great deal more than the ten miles it costs you.
Arriving Martha’s Vineyard
The Vineyard is a ferry queue and a half-day for anyone driving, and about an hour in the air from the Northeast. Summer demand is extraordinary and the season is short, which makes notice worth more here than almost anywhere.
Like Nantucket, the Vineyard gets genuine fog, particularly in June. We plan alternates in advance rather than improvising on the day, and we would rather tell you the risk beforehand than manage disappointment afterwards.
Flying Philadelphia to Martha’s Vineyard more than a few times a year? The Velocity Jet Card fixes the terms in advance — or see how a card compares with charter, fractional and ownership, including where a card is the wrong answer.
The Jet Configurator
The configurator checks routed distance against realistic full-cabin range, so it will never recommend an aircraft that cannot actually make the trip with everyone aboard.

Questions
Approximately 1h 09m – 1h 21m in a turboprop jet, over about 215 nautical miles direct. That is an estimated range including taxi time — winds and routing move it either way, and westbound legs typically run longer than eastbound.
For six passengers, a turboprop jet — Beechcraft King Air 350i or a Cessna Grand Caravan EX — covers this route nonstop and uses the fewest hours doing it. A light gives you more cabin and a faster cruise at around 53m – 1h 05m.
We typically use Northeast Philadelphia Airport (PNE) for Philadelphia and Martha’s Vineyard Airport (MVY) for Martha’s Vineyard. Alternatives are available at both ends and are sometimes the better answer depending on where you are actually going.
We do not publish charter prices, because a price without live operator availability behind it is a guess rather than a quote. Tell us the date and party size and you will have a real number, usually the same day.
