Answers to common questions about private jet travel to Fort Lauderdale, including airport selection, FXE vs. FLL, pricing, customs, and privacy.
Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport (FXE) is the best for private jet travelers. It is dedicated solely to general aviation, has no commercial flights, offers on‑site U.S. Customs, and is just 10 minutes from downtown. Luxury FBOs at FXE provide VIP lounges, private suites, and 24/7 service.
Yes. FXE has a full‑service U.S. Customs and Border Protection facility for private aircraft. International passengers clear customs inside the FBO without entering any public terminal – typically in under 10 minutes with prior notice.
FXE is approximately 10 minutes by car from the major superyacht marinas along the Intracoastal, including Pier 66 Marina, Lauderdale Marine Center, and Harbour Beach Marina. Helicopter transfers take 3–4 minutes.
Yes. FXE’s primary runway (13/31) is 6,000 feet long, which accommodates Gulfstream G650, Global 7500, and similar long‑range jets. For Boeing Business Jets or Airbus ACJs, we recommend Fort Lauderdale‑Hollywood International (FLL) with its 9,000‑foot runways, but many heavy jets operate comfortably from FXE.
From New York (Teterboro / White Plains) to FXE: light jets from ~$22,000, midsize from ~$28,000, heavy jets from ~$45,000. Prices vary by season, lead time, and return leg requirements.

Absolutely. We arrange helicopter charters from FXE to Boca Raton Executive (BCT) – 12 minutes – and to Miami‑Opa Locka (OPF) or Miami Beach – 15–18 minutes. Ideal for avoiding I‑95 traffic.
For best aircraft selection and pricing, we recommend booking 3–7 days in advance. However, Ari Jets can often accommodate last‑minute requests within 4–6 hours. During peak events (Boat Show, F1, Art Basel), book 2–4 weeks ahead.
