The Airbus A320 scales Puerto Rico group charter from San Juan (SJU), seating 19 to 50 in a private or high-density cabin with 4,300 nautical miles of range. It fits large delegations, sports groups, or tour parties flying SJU to the US mainland or nearer Europe. A mainline airliner in charter service.
Airbus has built the A320 since 1988 as one of the most common narrow-body airliners; charter and VIP versions carry groups of varied size, cruising near Mach 0.78 at up to 41,000 feet. Cabin flexibility is its strength.

Why the Airbus A320 Fits Puerto Rico
From Puerto Rico the A320 fits the larger group that wants an airliner rather than a business jet: San Juan to the mainland or the Caribbean with dozens aboard. It works SJU at charter and airline loads.
For team and group travel out of SJU at airliner capacity, the A320 covers the mission.
