Visit the โCapital of Latin Americaโ in South Florida on a Private Jet Charter
Though itโs undoubtedly a US city, Miami is an international and cultural crossroads โ bringing together the best of Latin America, the Caribbean, and all points north. The result is a blend of food, festivities, music, and art youโll find nowhere else in the world.
Despite the laid-back, island-time feel, however, Miami is also a center for international finance and a key trade hub at the heart of the western hemisphere. Fun fact: All of South America, except for the western tip of Ecuador, lies to the east of Miami. Thus, almost all cargo bound for north or south passes to or through Miami.
By jet charter, Miami is a two-hour flight from Atlanta, New Orleans, and Birmingham. Itโs also under two hours to Nassau in the Bahamas and Kingston, Jamaica โ and only two-and-a-half hours from San Juan, Puerto Rico.
Whatโs the best airport for private flights into Miami?
Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport (OPF) is just a few minutes north of the heavily trafficked Miami International, offering travelers easier ingress and egress to the I-95 corridor and northward destinations like Hollywood, Ft. Lauderdale and Palm Beach. However, itโs also convenient to downtown Miami, Little Havana, Little Haiti, and Coconut Grove.
What FBOs operate out of OPF?
Signature Flight Support and Fontainebleau Aviation are the two most widely used FBOs at Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport.
