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.
Retail and consumer goods run on the buyer's calendar. Line reviews, category meetings, and vendor summits are scheduled by the customer, and being unable to make the window is a commercial problem. On Columbus to Atlanta it works out to 377 nm each way, or about 8 h 16 m on the road.
Leave at 07 15, on site by 09 44, and the aircraft waits while you work. 6 h 17 m on the ground is a full session, and you are home by 18 30. The hotel night, the second working day, and the evening away all come off the cost of the trip — which is usually where the real money was.
Nobody is driving 8 h 16 m each way for a meeting, so the real comparison is the airline routing — and between Columbus and Atlanta 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.
Both The Ohio State University Airport and DeKalb-Peachtree Airport are straightforward fields for this aircraft with margin in hand, which matters more than it sounds: routine pairs are the ones that dispatch reliably, and reliability is most of what a business traveller is actually buying.
We are a broker with one airframe 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
6 h 17 m on the ground, home by 18 30
Wheels up 07 45, on site 09 44, back on the ramp at OSU by 18 00. 2 h 58 m of flying in total, and nobody's second working day spent in transit.
No hub, no connection
The scheduled routing between Columbus and Atlanta 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.
The Fields

Questions
Chartering OSU to PDK
How long is the flight from Columbus to Atlanta by private jet?
About 1 h 29 m of block time in a Cirrus Vision Jet, covering 377 nautical miles from The Ohio State University Airport (KOSU) to DeKalb-Peachtree Airport (KPDK). That includes taxi, climb, and descent; actual time varies with winds and routing.
Can I fly OSU to PDK and back in the same day?
That is what the pair is for. Wheels up 07 45, on site in Atlanta by 09 44, 6 h 17 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 Atlanta?
Four seats, every flight, with 32 cubic feet for bags, samples, and materials. The airframe is certified for more, but four is the load that works with fuel and luggage on a leg like this, so it is the number we quote against.
Can the Vision Jet use DeKalb-Peachtree Airport?
Yes, with margin. DeKalb-Peachtree Airport has 6,001 feet of runway, well inside the Vision Jet's requirements in any normal condition.
What does a OSU to PDK charter cost?
Pricing depends on date, direction, passenger count, and whether the aircraft is already positioned near Columbus. Halcyon quotes one all-in figure — aircraft, crew, fees, taxes and the ramp at both ends — inside the hour. That is the figure that reaches accounts payable.
How much notice do you need for a Atlanta 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.
