Illustrative, built from the block time above and a half-hour on the ground at each end. Shift the whole thing earlier or later and it still closes — the working window is set by flight time, not by the clock.
Los Angeles runs 1 hour behind Boise; the clock times below are local at each end.
This is high-frequency travel: the same accounts, the same markets, several times a year. Which means the friction in each trip compounds across the calendar rather than being absorbed once. Between Boise and Los Angeles that problem has a specific size: 571 nautical miles, and 12 h 31 m of it if you drive.
At 571 nm this is a longer day: 2 h 07 m each way, 4 h 15 m of flying. It still closes. On site by 09 22, 5 h 01 m on the ground, home by 18 30. Whether that beats an overnight depends on how long the meeting runs, and we will say so plainly rather than selling the version that bills more hours.
Nobody is driving 12 h 31 m each way for a meeting, so the real comparison is the airline routing — and between Boise and Los Angeles that typically means a connection, a total block time well over half a day, and an arrival window you do not control. A single segment removes the misconnect risk rather than managing it.
Boise Air Terminal and Van Nuys Airport are both business-aviation fields with private terminals, so the ten-minutes-before-departure arrival holds at each end.
We are a broker with three airframes on the sheet. That narrowness is the product: we know the operators, the fields and the real performance rather than guessing across forty types. Every flight is operated by an FAA Part 135 certificate holder.

Why this route works

Wheels up 07 45, on site 09 22, back on the ramp at BOI by 18 00. 4 h 15 m of flying in total, and nobody's second working day spent in transit.
No hub, no connection
The scheduled routing between Boise and Los Angeles generally requires a connection. One segment removes the misconnect risk rather than managing it.
The buyer sets the window
Line reviews and category meetings are scheduled by the customer. Being unable to make the window is a commercial problem, not a logistical one.
Ten minutes from car to aircraft
Private terminals at both ends. No screening queue, no gate, no boarding group — you park, walk out, and go.
Parachute and autoland, standard
The Vision Jet carries CAPS, a whole-airframe parachute, and Safe Return, a one-button emergency autoland. No other jet in production offers either, at any price.

Questions
Chartering BOI to VNY
How long is the flight from Boise to Los Angeles by private jet?
About 2 h 07 m of block time in a Cirrus Vision Jet, covering 571 nautical miles from Boise Air Terminal (KBOI) to Van Nuys Airport (KVNY). That includes taxi, climb, and descent; actual time varies with winds and routing.
Can I fly BOI to VNY and back in the same day?
That is what the pair is for. Wheels up 07 45, on site in Los Angeles by 09 22, 5 h 01 m on the ground, and home by 18 30 — 11 h 15 m door to door with no overnight.
How many colleagues can travel to Los Angeles?
Four seats and 30 lb of baggage a head, on every aircraft in the fleet. We sell one uniform product rather than pricing by airframe, which is what lets us substitute whichever aircraft is available without changing your booking or your price.
Can the Vision Jet use Van Nuys Airport?
Yes, with margin. Van Nuys Airport has 8,001 feet of runway, well inside the Vision Jet's requirements in any normal condition.
What does a BOI to VNY charter cost?
The price is on this page. It is one all-in figure — aircraft, crew, landing fees, taxes and the ramp at both ends — quoted for four passengers and the hours on the ground shown above. Change the party size or the time you need at Los Angeles and it re-prices as you move the controls. That is the figure that reaches accounts payable.
How much notice do you need for a Los Angeles trip?
Most legs can be arranged inside 24 hours when an aircraft is available, which is the point of the product for urgent site visits and escalations. You get a straight yes or no immediately rather than a request left open.
