Budget estimate

$500,000 – $1,000,000

The estimated budget for this contract can be based on the average cost of air charter services for similar contracts. Assuming an average cost of $100,000 to $200,000 per round-trip charter, the total estimated budget for the five round-trip charters would be between $500,000 and $1,000,000. However, this is a rough estimate and the actual budget may vary depending on the vendor's proposal and the evaluation criteria. Factors that may influence the likely payment range include the vendor's experience, the type of aircraft provided, and the level of catering services offered.
