Miami to Aspen by class

Peak winter migration route from South Florida to the Roaring Fork valley. Super-midsize is the recommended class for the same reason as any Aspen sector: full seats out of ASE on a warm afternoon, well inside the 95 ft wingspan and 100,000 lb weight limits.

FAQ

Common questions on this route

How long is Miami to Aspen by private jet?
About 4h 15m direct on a super-midsize over the 3,010 km sector, or 4h 05m on a heavy jet. Winter headwinds can add 10 to 15 minutes westbound.
How much does a Miami to Aspen charter cost?
Super-midsize, our recommendation, runs 34,000 to 45,000 one-way. Midsize jets from 28,000; heavy jets from 46,000. Peak weeks (Christmas, New Year, Presidents' Week) sit at the top of those bands.
Can a Gulfstream G650 or Global 7500 fly this route?
They can fly the sector, but they cannot land at Aspen. Both exceed ASE's 95 ft wingspan or 100,000 lb weight limits. Charter operators route ultra-long-range aircraft to Eagle County (EGE) with a 90-minute road transfer to Aspen.
Are ski bags a problem on this route?
Volume rather than weight is the constraint. A midsize jet takes six passengers with hard cases and boot bags; a super-midsize handles eight to nine without repacking. Full-cabin heavy jets carry ten with room for gear and hand luggage.
Which Miami airport should I use?
Opa-Locka (OPF) is the default, 11 miles from downtown. Miami Executive (TMB) for Kendall and Coral Gables. Fort Lauderdale (FLL) when Opa-Locka is saturated or a heavy jet needs airline-length runways at max fuel.
When are empty legs available on this route?
Southbound empty legs peak in the first week of April when winter-season aircraft reposition back to Florida. Northbound empties are less common because Aspen return traffic is heavily contracted through the season.
