Houston sports, energy, and government groups use VIP airliners when everyone has to arrive on the same aircraft at the same time. The Airbus ACJ319 is one of the larger cabins we put in front of Houston groups before the trip moves to airliner-size.
Airbus introduced the Airbus ACJ319 in 1999. More than one lavatory is fitted, which starts to matter when the cabin is full on a long sector. VIP layout typically 8-19. Full specifications for the Airbus ACJ319 are published by Airbus Commercial Aircraft.

Why the Airbus ACJ319 Fits Houston
For a Houston corporate group or sports roster traveling together, it is the aircraft that keeps everyone on one departure.
Working from the published 5,900 nautical miles and leaving margin for wind and reserves, New York, Bogota, and Sao Paulo are reachable nonstop from Houston. How much you are carrying and what the winds are doing will move that, which the operator calculates per trip.
