Hawker 800 / 800XP / 850XP

The Hawker 850XP is the most capable variant of the Hawker 800 line and a strong performer on longer Mexico routes, with 2,525 nautical miles of range that reaches most US departure cities to Mexico City nonstop. Eight seats, 430 knots, and a flat-floor cabin that competes well against newer aircraft at a lower rate.

Hawker Beechcraft refined the Hawker 800XP with BMW Rolls-Royce BR710 engines and aerodynamic improvements to create the 850XP. Eight seats, 430 knots and 2,525 nautical miles of range. The 850XP’s ceiling of 41,000 feet is below most jets in this category. Every Hawker 850XP we arrange flies with an operator certificated under FAR Part 135, the FAA rules for on-demand, for-hire charter.

Why the Hawker 850XP Fits Mexico

Two thousand five hundred and twenty-five nautical miles covers the New York to Mexico City via Toluca run at approximately 2,100 nautical miles with real margin, which separates the Hawker 850XP from shorter-legged midsize competitors on that routing. For East Coast corporate clients flying into Mexico’s financial capital, this aircraft makes that a nonstop trip where a Citation Excel or a Hawker 750 would need a stop or a very light load.

The flat-floor cabin at eight seats is the Hawker’s most consistent Mexico selling point. A corporate team of eight flying from the US South or Midwest into Guadalajara, Monterrey, or Mexico City has a proper midsize experience: stand-up height, real shoulder room, enclosed lavatory, and a galley. That cabin quality holds up well against newer midsize aircraft at higher rates.

The 41,000-foot ceiling is the limitation to flag for clients who fly longer Mexico routes regularly. Most of the aircraft in this category cruise at 45,000 feet, and the 850XP’s lower ceiling means it operates in more weather-exposed airspace on long-haul Mexico sectors. On shorter routes it is largely irrelevant.

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.

Charter Pricing Reference

Industry hourly rates for the Hawker 850XP run $4,800 to $6,200 per hour as of 7/2026. Actual quotes vary by operator, routing, positioning, and date.

The Hawker 850XP quotes in the mid-to-upper Mexico midsize band for a range it delivers that shorter-legged competitors cannot match, and on New York-to-Mexico routings the fuel stop it avoids is usually worth the rate.
