In 2008, Brazilian aircraft company Embraer introduced the Phenom 100, a light jet of superior quality in its class that quickly became a favorite among private fliers for both business and leisure travel. A year later, Embraer came up with a larger light jet, the Phenom 300.
The Phenom 300’s strongest competitor is the Learjet, which can travel faster and higher, but with four passengers onboard the Phenom 300 can fly more than 240 miles farther, get better fuel economy, and can take off and land on shorter runways. This opens up airports that other jets can’t get to and increases a passenger’s ability to get where they’re going without any hassle. Additionally, the Phenom 300 can travel 1,800 nautical miles with six occupants onboard.
Like the Phenom 100, the 300 offers a roomy and comfortable cabin, low operating costs, fuel efficiency, and single-pilot operation. It can accommodate eight passengers.
The differences in the Phenom 300 include a longer fuselage, quieter and powerful turbofan engines, swept wings as opposed to the straight wings of the 100, and increased speed and climbing performance. This means passengers spend less time taxiing down the runway before they’re up in the air and on their way to their destination.
The 14 additional inches offered in the cabin of the Phenom 300 make it seem even roomier than the already comfortable Phenom 100, so ample headroom and legroom is not a problem on this jet. The seats almost fully recline and the armrests go up so passengers on long flights can work in a little shut eye before taking in a meeting.
Another benefit of the Phenom 300 is that it offers a lavatory with a full sized commode and large sink in comparison to those of other light jets. Large windows and a good sized galley also make traveling on the Phenom 300 an experience in luxury.
The ride aboard the Phenom 300 is smooth, quiet, comfortable, and luxurious.
