The Pilatus PC-24 is a versatile twin-engine light jet for Puerto Rico from San Juan (SJU), seating 6 to 8 with 2,000 nautical miles of range and rare short-field ability. It covers SJU to the US East Coast or the eastern Caribbean nonstop, and can use shorter strips other jets cannot. A go-anywhere light jet.
Pilatus introduced the PC-24 in 2018 as a light jet with a cargo door and unimproved-runway capability, cruising near 440 knots at up to 45,000 feet. Its field performance is unique in the class.

Why the Pilatus PC-24 Fits Puerto Rico
From Puerto Rico the PC-24 fits clients who want jet speed plus access to shorter or rougher strips: San Juan to the East Coast, plus regional fields the Phenom cannot use. Runway flexibility is its edge.
For light-jet trips out of SJU that also need short-field access, the PC-24 stands apart.
