    Buying a Embraer Legacy 650

    The Legacy 650 buys more cabin and baggage per dollar than anything else in the heavy class — three genuine zones and 240 cu ft of in-flight accessible baggage at Challenger-level running costs. Values are attractive because the fleet is small, so diligence focuses on CorporateCare coverage, avionics mandate status and support access in your operating region.

    As of Q3 2026, asking prices run $8M–$16.5M; budget roughly $3,450 per flight hour of variable cost.

    Selling Your Embraer Legacy 650

    Legacy 650 buyers are cabin-driven and cross-shop the Challenger 605 and Falcon 900. We price against genuine comparable trades rather than asking prices, present programme and inspection status clearly, and market internationally where the type has the deepest following.

    As of Q3 2026, the model trades between $8M–$16.5M with average days-on-market around 260.

    Charter a Embraer Legacy 650

    Legacy 650 charter is route- and date-dependent. Expect roughly $7,500–$10,500 per flight hour before positioning, landing fees, crew expenses and catering. We source the aircraft and confirm the operator's credentials on every trip.
