When a light jet almost fits a Colorado trip but falls just short on seats or range, a super light jet closes the gap.
Pilatus introduced the PC-24 in 2018. It seats 6 to 8 with a published range of 2,000 nautical miles and a cruise speed of 440 knots. The aircraft has a service ceiling of 45,000 feet, 90 cubic feet of baggage volume and a lavatory.

Why the Pilatus PC-24 Fits Colorado
With 2,000 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from Denver to destinations such as Omaha, San Francisco and Miami, allowing for reserves and routing. In winter, snow and de-icing can add time to a Colorado departure, so it helps to build a little slack into the plan.
Colorado trips in this class usually leave from Centennial, south of Denver, or Rocky Mountain Metropolitan, between Denver and Boulder, depending on where you are starting from on the ground. At Colorado’s elevations, whether the aircraft can use a particular airport on your date is the operator’s call for that aircraft, its weight and the day’s conditions, and your advisor will confirm it before anything is booked.
How Colorado Clients Use the Pilatus PC-24
If a light jet would need a fuel stop or cannot take all the bags, a super light jet usually solves both with the same small group.
Tell us the route, how many people are flying and what they are bringing, skis and golf bags included, and your advisor will say whether this aircraft suits the trip or suggest one that suits it better.
