They are ranges rather than single numbers because weather and air traffic control do not deal in single numbers. Party size assumed: six.

Departing Orange County
Flying out of Orange County
John Wayne serves Newport Beach, Irvine and the whole of Orange County, and it operates under some of the strictest noise rules of any airport in the United States. Those rules are not advisory.
- Puts you in Newport and Irvine rather than an hour up the 405
- Strict curfew — 10pm to 7am, and it is enforced with penalties
- Noise-abatement departure procedures apply to every flight
Worth knowing before you plan
The John Wayne curfew runs 10pm to 7am with real financial penalties for violation, and the noise-abatement departure is among the steepest in the country. If your meeting might run late, we plan the alternative before you leave rather than after.
Arriving Miami
Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport
Opa-locka is Miami private aviation. It is the busiest general aviation field in the region and the natural gateway for Latin America and the Caribbean, with the customs and handling infrastructure that implies.
- The primary private gateway to the Caribbean and Latin America
- Customs and international handling on the field
- Avoids Miami International entirely, which is worth a great deal

Change the party size or the date
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.
