New commercial aircraft cost about $100 million to $135 million for a single aisle jet (Airbus A320neo or Boeing 737 MAX) and $290 million to well over $360 million for a widebody (Boeing 787 or Airbus A350). Those are list prices though and almost no buyer pays them. Who is buying, how many aircraft they order when they take delivery all affect that figure.

An aircraft trip cost comparison compares the total price of flying a particular route (fuel, crew, landing fees and time) between different aircraft rather than using one published hourly rate for all aircraft types. For the same route the total cost can be tens of thousands of dollars different depending on the category of aircraft used, distance flown and whether fuel stop required or positioning leg or overnight crew stay is involved. Owners and buyers who compare aircraft only by hourly rate get a distorted picture because hourly rate is just one input. The aircraft that looks cheapest per hour isn’t always the cheapest for a given trip once distance, speed and route-specific fees are taken into account.
