Airport Guide
Departure & Arrival Airports
Los Angeles, CA
Los Angeles is the entertainment and business capital of the West Coast, home to Hollywood, Silicon Beach tech companies, and major corporate headquarters. The LA metro area offers multiple private aviation airports, with Van Nuys Airport (VNY) being one of the busiest general aviation airports in the world — handling more private jet traffic than LAX itself.

FBOs: Atlantic Aviation, Signature Flight Support
- VNY — Van Nuys Airport

Ground Transportation
Private car services and luxury SUVs are standard for FBO transfers. Van Nuys is 20 minutes from Beverly Hills and 30 minutes from Downtown LA. LAX private terminals offer direct tarmac-to-vehicle service.
Seasonal Considerations
Year-round flying weather with rare delays. Awards season (Jan–Mar) and summer see peak private aviation demand. June gloom can bring morning fog to coastal airports but rarely impacts operations.
Miami, FL
Miami is the gateway to Latin America and the Caribbean, a global hub for finance, trade, and luxury real estate. The South Florida private aviation market is one of the busiest in the nation, with Opa-Locka Executive Airport (OPF) dedicated entirely to general aviation. The Fort Lauderdale corridor adds additional capacity for charter operations.
