From Baltimore, a light jet covers most of the trips Maryland clients ask about, from Orlando and Fort Lauderdale to Nashville and Nassau.

Why the Cessna Citation V Fits Baltimore
With 1,750 nautical miles of published range, it can fly between Baltimore and destinations such as Detroit, Fort Lauderdale and San Juan, allowing for reserves and routing. There is no jet airport in Annapolis, so trips for Annapolis and the Naval Academy use BWI, about 17 miles away.
Jets in this class use BWI Marshall, about nine miles south of downtown, or Martin State Airport in Middle River, about ten miles east, which suits Towson and Hunt Valley. Runway needs are calculated by the operator for that day’s conditions, and we confirm them with the operator before the trip is booked.
How Baltimore Clients Use the Cessna Citation V
A light jet usually seats six to eight, many with a lavatory, which suits a business trip to Chicago or a family heading to Florida.
Share the route, how many are flying and how much they are bringing, and your advisor will say whether this type is the right fit or suggest one that is.
