The Bombardier CRJ-200 in airline regional configuration seats 50 passengers and shows up in the Naples market as a lower-cost airliner alternative for medium-group corporate travel. RSW is the operational field; APF’s 6,600 feet of runway is inside the type’s envelope for landing but the noise and ramp footprint make RSW the practical answer.
First flight November 1995, entered service 1996. Enclosed lavatory, single-class 50-seat regional layout, baggage volume 308 cubic feet (3,500 pounds). Range 1,645 nautical miles at 424 knots true, ceiling 41,000 feet. Length 87.8 feet, wingspan 69.6 feet. For VIP or executive conversions see the CRJ-200 VIP entry.

Why the Bombardier CRJ-200 Fits Naples
RSW handling is routine for the type; APF is technically possible for a light payload but not standard. The 50-seat regional cabin fits a corporate off-site of 40 to 50 executives, a wedding-party charter from a single origin, or a sports team’s minor-league squad running a preseason game in Southwest Florida.
The 1,645-nautical-mile range covers TEB, HPN, MMU, BED, or PWK to RSW nonstop; a Toronto (YYZ) run is inside range with a light payload. It will not clear a coast-to-coast run.
Fits a member-guest golf tournament at Naples National or Quail West where the sponsoring group is flying 45 members in from a single origin. Ground transport from RSW to the club runs 45 to 90 minutes in season.

Vetting Behind Every Trip
Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates; reports may be provided on request.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
