Questions

Which airports do private jets use for Miami?

Miami-Opa Locka Executive (OPF) and Fort Lauderdale Executive (FXE). OPF and FXE are mainly business aviation.

Where do you check in for a private flight at OPF?

At a private terminal, called an FBO, not the airline terminal. At OPF: Atlantic Aviation OPF, Signature Aviation OPF, Fontainebleau Aviation, Jet Aviation OPF and JHSF Private Aviation Terminal. Your broker or operator tells you which one.

Do I need to clear customs at a private terminal?

On international flights, yes. Many private terminals handle it on site, but hours vary by airport and some need notice in advance. Your operator arranges it; check the hours if you land late.

Aircraft suitability is our reading of runway length and airport rules, not an operator's limit: your operator decides what can land. Hours and handlers change, so confirm before you travel. All cities.
