A refined light jet for a wider travel brief.
The Phenom 300E combines the established Phenom cabin shape with updated interior design and flight-deck technology. It provides a useful comparison for travellers seeking a contemporary light-jet environment. The performance references here are for the enhanced 300E specification, and should not be applied automatically to the original Phenom 300.

Embraer publishes a cabin cross-section 1.50 metres high and 1.55 metres wide, with six standard passenger seats and alternative layouts accommodating more. The brochure’s 5.97-metre cabin-length dimension covers the broader interior arrangement, rather than just the seating area. A floor plan remains the best way to compare usable space.
The manufacturer gives a range of 2,010 nautical miles with five occupants, long-range cruise and specified NBAA IFR reserves. High-speed cruise is 464 knots, quoted separately. A larger passenger group or heavier luggage load changes the calculation, so the operator must assess the actual itinerary rather than treating brochure range as universal.
The published design includes an externally serviced lavatory and a 2.38-cubic-metre total baggage and stowage reference. Connectivity, cabin finishes and some flight-deck features vary by year and installation. Ask for current photographs, the exact seating plan and a luggage assessment when comparing different 300E aircraft for the same journey.
