Departing Long Island
Flying out of Long Island
Republic at Farmingdale is the main general aviation field for Nassau and western Suffolk. If your destination is Long Island, using Teterboro means adding a drive through the city, which is a poor trade at almost any hour of any day.
- Avoids crossing Manhattan entirely — frequently the whole time saving
- Central to Nassau and western Suffolk
- The practical stepping stone toward the East End in summer
Arriving Palm Beach
Palm Beach International Airport
Palm Beach carries the heaviest private aviation traffic in South Florida for a good part of the year, and PBI takes anything up to and including ultra-long-range aircraft. It is the practical departure point for transatlantic flying out of the region.
- Full runway length for heavy and ultra-long-range aircraft
- The natural transatlantic departure point in South Florida
- Extremely busy in season — early booking materially improves options
Worth knowing before you plan
PBI in season is genuinely congested, and slot and FBO availability around major events can be the binding constraint rather than aircraft availability. More notice is worth more here than almost anywhere else we fly.

The configurator checks routed distance against realistic full-cabin range, so it will never recommend an aircraft that cannot actually make the trip with everyone aboard.
