Philadelphia ATR 72F Charter

Philadelphia air cargo charter sizes the aircraft to the shipment, and the shipment sets the departure time.

ATR (Avions de Transport Regional) introduced the ATR 72F in 2020. It is flown by a crew of 2. The type carries Crew only (cargo) passengers, cruises at 275 knots, tops out at 25,000 feet, covers 900 nautical miles and holds 2648 cubic feet of baggage. An aircraft of this size normally operates under FAR Part 121 or the foreign equivalent rather than FAR Part 135, and those standards generally carry stricter crew and operating requirements than FAR Part 91 and FAR Part 135.

Why the ATR 72F Fits Philadelphia

Freight out of Philadelphia moves through Philadelphia International (KPHL), which takes anything up to airliner size on a 12,000-foot runway for the largest aircraft, and through Northeast Philadelphia (KPNE) for smaller and more urgent loads.

A published range of 900 nautical miles brings Charleston, Chicago, Nashville and Bermuda within reach of Philadelphia, before the operator applies reserves and routing for the day.

Weight, dimensions and any hazardous classification all need confirming with the operator before the aircraft is committed. Your advisor will check them against the size of your load.

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.

Charter Pricing Reference

Industry hourly rates for the ATR 72F run $2,500 to $3,500 per hour as of 8/2026. Actual quotes vary by operator, routing, positioning, and date.

As a rough guide, Philadelphia to Bermuda is about 681 nautical miles, which is roughly 2.5 to 3.0 hours of flight time at this aircraft’s cruise speed before winds and routing are applied.
