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.

Each of these covers the routing nonstop with the cabin filled — checked against realistic full-cabin range, not a manufacturer headline.
Mid-Size Jets
3h 23m – 3h 53m
More cabin, more baggage and a faster cruise. Worth the additional hours if the flight is long or the party is traveling heavy.

Departing Telluride
Flying out of Telluride
Telluride is the highest commercial airport in the United States at 9,070 ft, on a mesa, with terrain on both sides. It is spectacular, it is demanding, and it is closed more often than anyone planning a ski week would like.
- The alternative is Montrose and a 65-minute mountain drive
- The highest commercial field in the country — performance limits are real
- Weather closures are frequent; Montrose is the standing alternate
Worth knowing before you plan
At 9,070 ft, aircraft performance is significantly reduced and many aircraft simply cannot operate here at useful payloads. We will tell you plainly when the honest answer is Montrose and a drive — and quite often it is.
Arriving Savannah
Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport
Savannah serves the city, Hilton Head and the Lowcountry, and it is also where Gulfstream builds aircraft — which means the field has service infrastructure well beyond what a city this size would otherwise carry.
- Serves Savannah, Hilton Head and the Lowcountry from one field
- Exceptional maintenance and service infrastructure on the field
- Hilton Head Airport is the closer option for the island itself
Worth knowing before you plan
Hilton Head Airport has a 5,000 ft runway and suits light and mid-size aircraft. Larger metal uses Savannah and a 45-minute drive — a trade worth making deliberately rather than discovering.

The Jet Configurator
Change the party size or the date
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.

How long is the flight from Telluride to Savannah by private jet?
