Miami-Opa Locka Executive.
Opa-locka is where Miami’s serious private aviation happens: an all-business-aviation field with one of the longest GA runways in the United States, on-field customs, no curfew, and five FBOs competing for the landing, a rare luxury in itself.
Chartering from Opa-locka
For long-haul, this is Miami’s natural doorway. The 2,439-metre runway plus around-the-clock operations make it the preferred entry for transatlantic missions. Our Miami to London lane runs from €150,000 all-in on an ultra long range jet, nine hours of block time, while New York to Miami starts at €18,500 on a super light. Customs clears on the field from 09:00 to midnight with an hour’s notice; late arrivals either extend by arrangement or clear at MIA’s GA facility, a choice we make when the itinerary is built, not on approach.
Facilities
Fontainebleau Aviation anchors the field with a hangar campus that swallows BBJ-class aircraft; Signature, Atlantic, Jet Aviation and Embassair, the last with its own dedicated customs ramp, round out the choice. Planeside car access is standard, Brickell is about thirty-five minutes, South Beach thirty.

Questions.
Which airport do private jets use in Miami?
Mostly Opa-locka for executive and long-haul traffic. The runway, on-field customs and 24-hour operations make it the capable choice over the smaller GA fields.
How much is a private jet from Miami to London?
From €150,000 all-in on an ultra long range jet, an indicative from-price on our block-hour model.
Can you land at Opa-locka at night?
Yes, there is no curfew. The tower closes at 23:00 and the field continues under standard non-towered procedures; customs after midnight is the only piece that needs pre-arrangement.
