The Phenom 300 (N471QS), operated by NetJets Aviation, flew 205 flights in May 2026 — averaging 6.6 flights per day, the single busiest aircraft globally. Its Top 10 routes span 17 cities across 3 countries (United States, Mexico, Canada), confirming a dense North America-focused deployment.

Network Concentration The Top 3 routes (Monterey-Santa Ana, Los Angeles-San Jose, Cincinnati-Washington) each flew 4 flights — part of a five-way tie at the top, together 5.9% of total. The even spread, with no single dominant pair, reflects a fractional light jet cycling rapidly across many short domestic corridors.

Notable Pattern With 205 flights in 31 days, this aircraft demonstrates intensive fractional deployment — nearly 6.6 departures every day . The dense U.S. domestic pattern, punctuated by cross-border legs to Mexico and Canada, marks a high-utilization NetJets light jet in May's rebound.
