The Beechcraft King Air 350 is the most capable of the classic King Air variants still in widespread charter use, with an 1,806-nautical-mile range and 8 to 11 passenger capacity that bridges the gap between turboprop and light jet on Mexico’s domestic and short transborder routes. It is among the most commonly available turboprops for Mexico travel.
The King Air 350 entered service in 1990, powered by two Pratt and Whitney Canada PT6A-60A engines. It seats 8 to 11 passengers, cruises at 312 knots, and has a ceiling of 35,000 feet with a range of 1,806 nautical miles. Every King Air 350 we arrange flies with an operator certificated under FAR Part 135, the FAA rules for on-demand, for-hire charter.

Why the King Air 350 Fits Mexico
The King Air 350’s 1,806-nautical-mile range covers the full Mexico domestic long-haul network in a single leg. Mexico City to Cancun, Monterrey to the Yucatan, and Guadalajara to the Pacific coast resorts are all within range with a standard fuel load. For longer domestic Mexico itineraries, the 350 competes directly with light jets on range while maintaining turboprop economics.
Monterrey’s maquiladora zone and Guadalajara’s electronics manufacturing sector generate consistent King Air 350 demand for executive and cargo travel. The 8 to 11 seat configuration carries a full management team, and the aircraft’s reliability in Mexican operations is well established.
For island and coastal destinations that restrict access by runway length, the King Air 350’s field performance opens up secondary Mexico airports where light jets cannot operate, making it one of the most versatile options in the Mexico domestic turboprop market.
