The Embraer Praetor 600 continues to gain traction as one of the most sought-after midsize jets in the market today. As we move through the back half of 2025, the aircraft’s combination of range, performance, and cutting-edge technology has solidified its standing as a category leader — and the market is taking notice.

Market Overview

With only 133 Praetor 600s in operation worldwide, the available pre-owned inventory remains exceptionally thin. Currently, just two aircraft (1.5% of the fleet) are publicly for sale, both of which already have deals pending. Despite the limited availability, buyer activity has surged, with dozens of qualified prospects actively seeking to acquire a Praetor 600 before year-end.

Through 2025, jetAVIVA has recorded three closed pre-owned sales, with at least four additional transactions currently pending, all expected to close in Q4. While this marks steady activity, it still represents relatively low turnover for a market of this size, highlighting just how few owners are willing to part with their aircraft.

Pricing Trends

Pricing for early-production models (2019–2022) is currently between $18M and $23M, depending on pedigree, total time, and equipment. Newer examples (2023–2025) are commanding $25M to $29M, often driven by continued OEM price increases and the soonest new delivery slot being Q2 2028.

The average asking price for current listings sits just above $20M, reflecting the scarcity of available aircraft rather than a softening of demand. In fact, the absorption rate of just 3.6 months underscores how rapidly inventory is being sold when quality aircraft become available.

Market Dynamics

The imbalance between demand and supply continues to define this segment. Buyers frustrated by long lead times for new deliveries are increasingly turning to the pre-owned market — but with so few aircraft available, competition remains fierce. Many of the most recent trades have occurred quietly, before public listing, and off-market activity is at an all-time high.

Meanwhile, existing owners are benefitting from record-high valuations and a deep bench of motivated buyers. For those considering an exit, the fourth quarter represents a prime window to capture premium pricing.

jetAVIVA Perspective
