Questions

Common questions

Which airport does private aviation use in Los Angeles?

Van Nuys Airport (VNY / KVNY) is the primary field. Hollywood Burbank (BUR) is also used — closer to the studios; John Wayne, Orange County (SNA) is also used — south of the city.

Can I charter a private jet from Los Angeles without a membership?

Yes. On-demand charter requires no card, no membership and no commitment. The Velocity Jet Card is worth considering at around 25 hours a year, but it is never a prerequisite for chartering.
