About the Praetor 600

The Praetor 600 is the farthest-flying super-midsize jet in the world, capable of nonstop flights from London to New York or São Paulo to Miami. It represents the most technologically advanced of its class as the only to offer full fly-by-wire, as well as an industry-exclusive upper tech panel and Ka-band’s home-like connectivity. The Embraer DNA Design interior eloquently explores every dimension of the cabin, including a six-foot-tall, flat-floor cabin with fully berthing seats for seven-foot-flat beds, and a vacuum service lavatory. Class-exclusive active turbulence reduction and 5,800-foot cabin altitude, paired with a whisper-silent cabin, have set the highest standards in customer experience in the segment. The largest baggage compartment in the class is complemented by a generous wardrobe and a full vanity in the rear private lavatory.
