The ownership trade-off
The ACJ319neo combines 21-seat jet capability with about 6,750 NM reported range and about 469 kt reported cruise, while payload, runway and operating-cost figures remain indicative and should be verified for the specific aircraft before making a decision.
What the estimate covers
Every figure above is built from a $1.08m (€1m) fixed annual base, covering hangarage, insurance, scheduled maintenance reserves and recurring airworthiness costs, plus $9,342 (€8,650) per hour flown for fuel, reserves and consumables. It is a planning model for comparing aircraft and testing utilisation, not a maintenance programme quote, insurance quote or pre-buy assessment.
Older examples add calendar-driven maintenance: a 2011-built airframe is estimated at $1.88m (€1.74m) per year at 80 hours. Airframe and engine time, maintenance and damage history, avionics, equipment, geography and tax treatment move a real transaction further than the model year does, so price the aircraft in front of you, not the model. A cheaper example carrying deferred maintenance can be the more expensive aircraft once the first annual inspection is complete.
Airbus ACJ319neo cost guide answers the same figures as standalone purchase and ownership questions, and the ownership cost calculator lets you replace these assumptions with your own hours and fixed costs.
What you need to be qualified to fly an Airbus ACJ319neo
On top of a pilot certificate, this aircraft obliges the person flying it to hold the following. Each one is time and money before the first trip, and insurers usually attach their own minimums on top.
- Type rating. This aircraft is turbojet-powered, so 14 CFR 61.31(a) requires a type rating for the specific type regardless of weight. Expect a formal initial course at a training provider and recurrent training every year, both of which insurers normally make a condition of cover.

Common questions about the Airbus ACJ319neo
How much does an Airbus ACJ319neo cost?
An indicative 2022 market price for an Airbus ACJ319neo is $60.74m (€56.24m) to $72.63m (€67.25m). This is a planning estimate normalised across the market, not a quote for a specific airframe. Condition, engine time remaining, avionics and damage history move the real number more than the model year does.
What does an Airbus ACJ319neo cost per hour to operate?
Flying 80 hours a year, an Airbus ACJ319neo works out at roughly $1.83m (€1.69m) annually, which is about $22,842 (€21,150) per flight hour all-in once fixed costs are spread across those hours. The direct cost per hour alone, covering fuel, reserves and consumables, is about $9,342 (€8,650).
How far can an Airbus ACJ319neo fly?
Reported range is 6,750 nm (12,501 km). PlaneFit does not yet use this figure for mission ranking on this model.
What do you need to be qualified to fly an Airbus ACJ319neo?
Beyond a pilot certificate, an Airbus ACJ319neo requires type rating. This aircraft is turbojet-powered, so 14 CFR 61.31(a) requires a type rating for the specific type regardless of weight. Expect a formal initial course at a training provider and recurrent training every year, both of which insurers normally make a condition of cover. These are US requirements and are stated for orientation; confirm them against the current regulation and an instructor.
What runway does an Airbus ACJ319neo need?
Plan on approximately 5,906 ft (1,800 m) for take-off. Check this against the actual runway, surface, slope, temperature and loading, all of which extend the requirement.
