Operational context
The Biarritz – Genève sector links Biarritz Pays Basque (LFBZ) to Genève Cointrin (LSGG) over 675 km great-circle, about 1h11 airborne in a Phenom 300. The constraint here is rarely range but slot and parking availability at Genève Cointrin (3900 m runway). On this short sector a Phenom 300 is the best cost / block-time compromise.
