Since the Learjet 45 has been in service for over a decade, there have been many Bombardier Learjet 45 charter operators. Bombardier used to operate their own Learjet 45 charter service through its Flexjet and Jet Solutions LLC subsidiary. In 2013, Bombardier sold Flexjet and Jet Solutions LLC to Directional Aviation Capital. The new company after the acquisition became Flexjet, LLC. Flexjet used to offer Learjet 45 charters through fractional ownership, jet cards, and on-demand charters.
In 2019, it seems that the Learjet 45 and the engine upgrade version of the jet, the Learjet 45 XR, are no longer available from Flexjet. The company has replaced the aircraft with the Learjet 75, which is the new version of the 45.
Even though the jet is not listed on the company’s website and fleet, we have noticed that the company is still flying the aircraft according to flight tracking sites like FlightAware. The aircraft may be available from the company; however, it is better to fly the Learjet 75 as it is a newer version of the jet.
Other Learjet 45 Charter Providers
There are many Learjet 45 and Learjet 45 XR charter operators. We have spotted Jet Linx Aviation, Airshare (formerly Executive AirShare), Dreamline Aviation, Flightstar, and Private Jets, Inc (Oklahoma City, OK) as operators of the jet. Many more charter companies operate the jet.

How to Charter a Learjet 45 or 45 XR
The best way to charter a Bombardier Learjet 45 XR is to contact one for the charter operators of the jet or contact a charter broker that has access to the aircraft. Since the Learjet 45 is considered to be a light or midsize jet, the aircraft will be able to fly out of most of the airports in the United States, which will give you greater flexibility when planning your trip with a charter operator. Stay tuned to our site to learn more about charter operations.
