Cirrus Vision Jet Charter
Denver to Las Vegas in 2 h 00 m
The airlines fly this route. They do not fly it at 6:40 because that is when your meeting ended — 2 h 00 m on your schedule is a different product.

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.
Las Vegas runs 1 hour behind Denver; the clock times below are local at each end.
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 Denver to Las Vegas it works out to 533 nm each way, or about 11 h 41 m on the road.
At 533 nm this is a longer day: 2 h 00 m each way, 4 h 00 m of flying. It still closes. On site by 09 15, 5 h 15 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.
Both ends of this pair have hub airline service, so there is a nonstop and we are not going to pretend otherwise. What the nonstop does not give you is the hour before it: the drive to the main terminal, the screening queue, the gate, and a departure time chosen months ago by a network planner. Door to door, the private version usually saves two to three hours in each direction — and it saves them at the ends of the day, where they are worth the most.
Both Centennial Airport and Henderson Executive 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 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.

5 h 15 m on the ground, home by 18 30
Wheels up 07 45, on site 09 15, back on the ramp at APA by 18 00. 4 h 00 m of flying in total, and nobody's second working day spent in transit.
The hour before the nonstop
There is an airline nonstop on this pair. The private version skips the main terminal, the screening queue, and the published departure time — two to three hours door to door, in each direction.
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.
Staying over

Questions
Chartering APA to HND
How long is the flight from Denver to Las Vegas by private jet?
About 2 h 00 m of block time in a Cirrus Vision Jet, covering 533 nautical miles from Centennial Airport (KAPA) to Henderson Executive Airport (KHND). That includes taxi, climb, and descent; actual time varies with winds and routing.
Can I fly APA to HND and back in the same day?
That is what the pair is for. Wheels up 07 45, on site in Las Vegas by 09 15, 5 h 15 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 Las Vegas?
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 Henderson Executive Airport?
Yes, with margin. Henderson Executive Airport has 6,501 feet of runway, well inside the Vision Jet's requirements in any normal condition.
What does a APA to HND 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 Las Vegas 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 Las Vegas 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.
