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.
4h 52m – 5h 36m
Covers the trip nonstop and is properly sized for it — the right-fit answer for 6 passengers.
4h 41m – 5h 24m
More cabin, more baggage and a faster cruise. Worth the additional hours if the flight is long or the party is traveling heavy.
Departing Scottsdale
Scottsdale is one of the busiest general aviation fields in the western United States and the obvious answer for north Phoenix, Paradise Valley and the resort corridor. Its peak is spectacular and short.
Scottsdale has a 8,249 ft runway that takes most aircraft comfortably, but ramp space during the Phoenix Open and spring training is the binding constraint. Those weeks need planning in weeks.
Arriving Providenciales
Providenciales is roughly two hours from South Florida and has become one of the most reliably busy private destinations in the Caribbean. Peak season ramp space, not aircraft availability, is usually the constraint.
Flying Scottsdale to Providenciales 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 4h 52m – 5h 36m in a super-mid jet, over about 2,209 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 super-mid jet — Cessna Citation Sovereign+ or a Bombardier Challenger 3500 — covers this route nonstop and uses the fewest hours doing it. A heavy gives you more cabin and a faster cruise at around 4h 41m – 5h 24m.
We typically use Scottsdale Airport (SCF) for Scottsdale and Providenciales International Airport (PLS) for Providenciales. 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.
