Which US airports define the business aviation network?

The US business aviation network is anchored by Teterboro (TEB/KTEB) in New Jersey, Van Nuys (VNY/KVNY) in California (the world's busiest GA airport by movements), Opa-Locka (OPF/KOPF) in Miami, Westchester (HPN/KHPN) for Connecticut, Hanscom (BED/KBED) for Boston, DeKalb-Peachtree (PDK/KPDK) for Atlanta, Dulles (IAD/KIAD) for Washington DC, Palm Beach International (PBI/KPBI), Aspen (ASE/KASE), Naples Florida (APF/KAPF) and Henderson (HND/KHND) for Las Vegas. Scottsdale (SDL/KSDL) serves the Arizona winter HNW market.

What is the NBAA convention?

NBAA-BACE (Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition) takes place annually in October, rotating between Las Vegas Convention Center and Orlando Orange County Convention Center, drawing approximately 25,000 attendees and hosting roughly 90 aircraft on static display at the host airport. Las Vegas Henderson Executive (HND/KHND) hosts static when held at LVCC; Orlando Executive (ORL/KORL) hosts static for Orlando years. Show-week ramp parking books 12+ months ahead. The convention sets industry pricing benchmarks and aircraft model launch announcements.

How do TSA and CBP affect US private aviation?

International business aviation arrivals to the US require Advance Passenger Information System (APIS) filings 60+ minutes before arrival, US Customs and Border Protection clearance at the FBO (averaging 20-35 minutes for trusted travellers), and operator vetting for foreign-registered aircraft. The TSA Twelve-Five Standard Security Programme applies to charter operators with aircraft over 12,500 lbs. Designated User Fee Airports include Teterboro, Opa-Locka, Van Nuys, Westchester, Hanscom and DeKalb-Peachtree, offering 24/7 CBP without overtime surcharges.

What is the FAA Part 135 framework?

FAA Part 135 governs commercial on-demand charter operations in the US, requiring operators to hold an Air Carrier Certificate, employ certified pilots with specific currency requirements, maintain aircraft to enhanced standards and operate under defined dispatch and weather minima. Private flights under Part 91 (owner-operated, non-commercial) face fewer constraints but cannot accept compensation. Part 135 operators include the major fleet carriers (NetJets, Flexjet, VistaJet US, Wheels Up) plus regional charter operators. Part 380 covers public charter aggregators with specific consumer-protection rules.

How much is a transcontinental US private jet flight?

An ultra-long-range jet such as the Gulfstream G650 or Global 7500 from Teterboro to Van Nuys costs from USD 62,000 to USD 95,000 one-way Tuesday-Wednesday, rising to USD 85,000-110,000 on Friday and Sunday. Flight time is 5 hours 15 minutes westbound (jet stream against) and 4 hours 35 minutes eastbound. A Gulfstream G280 midsize requires a tech stop typically at Denver Centennial (APA/KAPA) or Salt Lake City Executive, adding 90 minutes block time and pricing from USD 42,000-58,000.
