As of April 2026, the Challenger 300 market remains highly active. With a total of 446 aircraft in operation, the fleet is primarily based in North America, with the United States holding the largest share of 359 aircraft, or just over 80%. The current market is characterized by a moderate inventory for sale. There are 24 aircraft currently for sale, representing 5.4% of the in-operation fleet. The average asking price stands at $11.16 million, which reflects a 3% increase over the past 12 months. Aircraft are spending, on average, 188 days on the market, a slight 6% increase from the previous year. The market remains liquid, with 48 retail transactions occurring over the past 12 months. As we evaluate the supply and demand of demand trends, there is currently about 6.1 months of inventory on the market. Recent retail sales data shows a transaction price range typically between $7.75M and $13M, depending on the model year and airframe total time. In terms of utilization trends for the Challenger past year, the fleet recorded just over 90,000 flights, with an average flight time of 1.8 hours. The busiest routes for this aircraft type are centered around the Northeast United States and Florida, particularly between Teterboro and Miami-Opa-Locka. In closing, with only six months of inventory, the Challenger 300 is currently balanced. While supply is higher than its successor, the Challenger 350, it continues to see robust utilization and steady value retention.
