The Boeing 737-200 carries Puerto Rico groups of 30 to 50 in a private airliner cabin from San Juan (SJU), with 2,600 nautical miles of range. It fits teams, tour parties, and corporate groups flying SJU to the US mainland or the Caribbean. A rugged narrow-body in charter service.
Boeing built the 737-200 from the late 1960s, and it remains in charter and group use for its durability and short-field ability. It cruises near Mach 0.74 at up to 37,000 feet.
