Why fly private on
this route
The commercial experience
New York
Commercial flights from NYC airports mean navigating some of the busiest airspace in the world. TSA lines at JFK regularly exceed 45 minutes, and delays cascade through the system daily.
Washington D.C.
Reagan's single runway and security restrictions create chronic delays. Dulles is 45 minutes from downtown in traffic. Neither offers the convenience that D.C. power players demand.
The private advantage
From New York
Skip the chaos of JFK and Newark commercial terminals. Private aviation in New York means departing from dedicated FBOs where you can arrive 15 minutes before takeoff, not 2 hours. For time-sensitive business travelers, this translates to an extra half-day of productivity.
To Washington D.C.
When you need to be on Capitol Hill for a morning hearing and back in New York for dinner, private aviation makes it possible. Skip the Reagan National crowds and land ready to meet with lawmakers, not recover from travel.
Save hours, not just minutes
When you factor in airport arrival, security, boarding, deplaning, and ground transportation, private aviation saves 3-5 hours on each trip compared to commercial.
