With Fly Bitlux, moving critical shipments has never been more straightforward or dependable.
Fly Bitlux arranges charter aircraft for freight that is too time-critical, too oversized, or too sensitive for commercial belly space or a scheduled freight carrier. We are a charter broker — we source the aircraft and operator for your specific shipment and dates. We are not a scheduled freight operator and we don’t run a cargo network. If your shipment is routine, high-volume, or recurring-lane freight, a dedicated freight forwarder with scheduled lift will serve you better and cheaper. Where we win is the one-off: the part that’s grounding an aircraft right now, the load that missed its connection, the shipment too large or too sensitive to wait for the next truck or flight.
What we actually arrange:
Marketing copy about “massive cargo capacity” is meaningless until it’s measured against your crate. The number that actually matters is the cargo door opening on the aircraft category available for your routing and timeline, door height and width determine whether your item loads at all, before payload weight is even a question.
| Cabin / aircraft category | Typical cabin length | Loading aperture | Typical cargo payload |
|---|---|---|---|
| Light jet (CJ3, Phenom 300, Lear 45) | ~15–18 ft | Baggage hatch only, roughly 30–36 in in its narrowest dimension — no true cargo door exists on this class | ~800–1,400 lb, and roughly 65–85 cu ft of volume |
| Midsize jet (Citation XLS, Hawker 800XP, Lear 60) | ~18–21 ft | Still a passenger/baggage-sized opening, roughly 30–44 in | ~1,000–1,800 lb, roughly 50–60 cu ft |
| Super midsize / large cabin (Challenger 300/350, G450, Falcon 2000) | ~25–40 ft | Main cabin door, bigger but still a passenger door — no flat sill, no rollers | ~1,500–2,500+ lb, roughly 105–170 cu ft |
| Dedicated freighter / combi (charter-sourced) | Main deck, no passenger cabin | True cargo door — a 737 Classic freighter runs roughly 7 ft high by 11 ft wide | 737-400F up to ~45,000 lb; ATR 72F ~20,000 lb; Metroliner ~4,400 lb |
Figures are typical for the class, not a spec for any one aircraft. Exact door apertures are not published by manufacturers, they live in type certificates and weight-and-balance documents, and they change by sub-variant and completion. We confirm the real numbers against the specific tail an operator offers for your dates.
The honest dividing line: on every business jet, light through large cabin, the door opening rejects an item long before weight does. Payload is almost never what stops a shipment, a 28-inch aperture is. Floor loading and payload only become the binding constraint once you’re in a dedicated freighter, where the door is built for pallets. If your item is pallet-sized, or it’s a jet engine, an engine stand, or a wing section, the real answer is a freighter, not a business jet with the seats pulled.
We don’t publish generic specs here because the real figures vary by the specific tail an operator offers for your trip, and we are a broker, not an aircraft owner, so we never name “our” aircraft. When you call with a crate size, weight, and pickup/delivery window, we match it against the door dimensions and payload limits of aircraft actually available on your dates, and tell you straight if it doesn’t fit rather than guess.
If your shipment is classified as dangerous goods (lithium batteries, chemicals, compressed gas, biological material above certain thresholds), say so up front. We arrange aircraft and operators through carriers that hold the appropriate dangerous-goods authorization for the specific class of material — not every Part 135 operator carries every hazmat authorization, which is exactly why this gets confirmed before the aircraft is offered, not after it shows up.
For pharma and other cold-chain freight, tell us the required range and duration. Options depend on the aircraft and operator available for your dates and lane — this gets confirmed as part of the quote, not assumed.
We arrange the flight leg. Ground handling on either end — airport-to-airport (you handle pickup/delivery to and from the FBO) or door-to-door (we coordinate ground transport on one or both ends) — is scoped on the quote call, because requirements and availability vary by location.
Is Fly Bitlux a cargo airline? No. We’re a licensed charter broker under 14 CFR Part 295. We arrange aircraft and operators for individual freight charters — we don’t operate a scheduled freight network or own cargo aircraft.
What size shipment makes sense for a charter instead of commercial freight? Anything where the time cost of waiting for the next scheduled flight, or the physical size of the item, outweighs the cost of a dedicated aircraft. AOG parts and line-down manufacturing freight are the clearest cases. Routine recurring freight is usually cheaper on a scheduled lane.
Can you move an item that doesn’t fit a standard aircraft cargo door? Sometimes — it depends on the specific door dimensions of aircraft available for your dates. Send exact crate dimensions and we’ll check against what’s actually available rather than guess.
Do you handle the customs and ground logistics, or just the flight? We arrange the flight leg and can coordinate ground handling depending on the shipment and location. Scope this with the desk when you call — it varies by airport and by what’s required on each end.
Can you move pets without putting them in a commercial cargo hold? Yes — that’s one of the more common requests we handle. The animal travels in the cabin environment, not a hold, with no layover transfer.
