Typical figures for representative types in this category, given as ranges because they vary by aircraft and configuration. Published range assumes favourable conditions and a light load; we confirm the specific aircraft against your actual routing before quoting it.
The trade-off
Slower and noisier than a jet, and it flies lower, so it works around weather rather than over it.
