Private Jet Charter Boston to New York

The preferred Boston departure for this corridor: New England's largest general-aviation airport, 23 km outside Boston, with a 7,011 ft main runway, three FBOs and around 274 movements a day dominated by business aviation. There is no airline schedule to queue behind, so a 45 minute sector is not swallowed by a 30 minute taxi. Note the tower runs 07:00 to 23:00 and Massport charges a night field-use fee outside those hours.

Five km from downtown and the fastest field to reach from the city centre or the Seaport, with no runway limitation of any kind. The trade-off is sequencing behind airline traffic at peak banks plus higher handling costs, which on a 45 minute flight is a material share of total door-to-door time.

Convenient for the southern and western suburbs and cheaper than either Hanscom or Logan, but the 4,008 ft runway caps it at turboprops and smaller light jets and there is no customs facility. Used on this route only when the passengers are already south of the city.

Twelve miles north-north-west of Midtown Manhattan and the default New York business-aviation field, with a 7,000 ft runway 1/19 and a 6,013 ft runway 6/24. Aircraft above 100,000 lb are barred, which is irrelevant on this sector. A voluntary restraint on non-essential operations applies 23:00 to 06:00, and departure noise limits on runway 24 tighten to 80 dB(A) between 22:00 and 07:00.

Better than Teterboro for Fairfield County, Greenwich and northern Westchester, and open 24 hours with no mandatory curfew. A voluntary restraint from flying runs midnight to 06:30, the terminal-use regulation caps scheduled passengers, and aircraft above 120,000 lb need prior authorisation.

Forty miles west of Manhattan with a 5,998 ft ILS-equipped runway 5/23, two national FBOs and its own customs facility. A long-standing court-ordered overnight curfew applies, but for daytime traffic heading to Morris County or Somerset Hills it beats crossing the Hudson.
