An unmistakable silhouette. A generous cabin.
The original Piaggio Avanti offers a distinctive approach to executive turboprop travel: two engines, an unconventional exterior and a notably broad cabin for a compact aircraft. It is a separate catalog choice from the Avanti II. The appeal is as much about the passenger space as the appearance on the apron.
Plan a flight with this aircraft
The catalog reference describes seating for up to eight, with a cabin approximately 1.85 metres wide and 1.76 metres high. This gives the Avanti a different interior proposition from a narrow light jet. The exact mix of individual seats and any divan must be confirmed from the offered layout.
The catalog lists a 2,592-kilometre range reference. Treat that as an initial comparison point, rather than a promise of a particular nonstop route. Passenger weight, fuel reserves, forecast weather and the selected airports all influence the operational plan prepared for an individual flight.
For a family journey, discuss child seating and bags before choosing the aircraft. For business travel, check where the table positions and facing seats sit in the layout. The Avanti’s distinctive design does not imply identical interiors across the fleet, so recent photographs are especially useful.
Tell us your route, number of passengers and luggage requirements. If sleeping, a private meeting or dining together matters, include it in your brief so the proposed aircraft can be assessed against the way you want to travel.
