Which should you charter?
Pick the Embraer Phenom 100EV if headroom matters (the cabin is 3 cm taller).
Pick the HondaJet HA-420 if you need the extra 478 km (258 nm) of range, you want more room to spread out (the cabin is 0.5 m longer), you travel with a lot of luggage (66 cu ft of baggage space vs 44) and you want the shorter flight time (it cruises 32 km/h faster).
The Embraer Phenom 100EV is estimated at $3,200/hr against $3,300/hr for the HondaJet HA-420, about $100 less per hour. Charters are billed by flight time, so the faster HondaJet HA-420 saves about 3 minutes per 1,000 km flown. Real quotes depend on the operator, the aircraft's age and how far it has to fly to reach you.
Example trip: the HondaJet HA-420 can fly Miami (OPF) to Toronto (YYZ) nonstop, 1,977 km. The Embraer Phenom 100EV would need a fuel stop on that route.
Nonstop means within 90% of published range, before winds, payload and fuel reserves; the operator confirms each route.
