Why the Embraer EMB-120 Brasilia Fits Nashville
With 945 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from Nashville to destinations such as St. Louis, Orlando and Miami, allowing for reserves and routing. Ramp space at Nashville International gets tight on Titans home game weekends in the fall, so a departure on those dates is worth planning early.
Nashville trips in an aircraft this size usually start at Nashville International (BNA), which is staffed around the clock and is the only airport in the Nashville area with customs. Whether the aircraft can use a particular airport on your date is a calculation the operator makes for that weight and that day’s weather, and your advisor will confirm it before anything is booked.
How Nashville Clients Use the Embraer EMB-120 Brasilia
Cargo charters out of Nashville move what will not wait: parts for a stopped production line, oversized equipment, and shipments too urgent for scheduled freight. The aircraft is sized to the load.
Tell us the weight, the dimensions and the pickup and delivery points, and your advisor will confirm whether this aircraft is the right fit or suggest a better one.

- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
