Aruba Piper Saratoga PA-32R Charter

Aruba clients rarely need a piston aircraft, but for a short flight with a passenger or two and light bags, it is the simplest option on the list.

Piper introduced the Saratoga PA-32R in 1980. It seats 5 to 6 with a published range of 770 nautical miles and a cruise speed of 165 knots. The aircraft has a service ceiling of 20,000 feet and 24.3 cubic feet of baggage volume.

Why the Piper Saratoga PA-32R Fits Aruba

With 770 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips between Aruba and destinations such as San Juan, allowing for reserves and routing.

For an aircraft in this class, a trip from the mainland usually includes one or more fuel stops, and on the island every private flight uses Queen Beatrix International in Oranjestad. The runway an aircraft needs is calculated by the operator for that day’s conditions, and your advisor confirms it with the operator before the trip is booked.

How Aruba Clients Use the Piper Saratoga PA-32R

Piston aircraft are for short flights with one or two passengers and very little luggage. Most seat two to five, and the distance between Aruba and the mainland is beyond what most clients want to do in one.

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.
  • 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.
