Are you planning on flying private to New York? Then, you probably wanna strap in and read this.
New York City has 3 main commercial airports through which millions of people pass each year. They have FBOs to also serve charters and private aircraft.
John F. Kennedy International Airport (largest),
LaGuardia Airport
Newark International Airport
Depending on exactly where you draw the line, within a 40-mile radius there are around a dozen airports and more than 30 FBOs to choose from when flying into New York City. From these options, planners will usually select where to land-based on price and proximity to the final destination.
On that list, the Teterboro Airport (KTEB) is the most popular choice for private jets arriving and departing New York. KTEB in New Jersey is the main private jet airport serving New York City. Just 12 miles from Midtown Manhattan, it is the busiest private airport in the USA and one of the busiest in the world - serving an average of 500 flights daily.

It is a popular choice among business travellers. Why? Because of all the time it saves. And well, time is money, isn’t it?
Its strategic location means a ride into the city or the nearest hotels is just a short while away. The luxurious Teaneck Marriott at Glenpointe, Hilton Hasbrouck Heights, Renaissance Meadowlands Hotel and Hyatt Place are all less than 20 minutes from the airport by car.
These hotels also have facilities that specifically cater to business travellers like work areas, business centres and lounge areas.
The airport also fiercely protects the privacy of its customers. Discretion is one of the reasons many choose Teterboro. If they wish, celebrities and business executives can slip unperturbed from the plane to the private terminal to a black car bound for the city.
Fun Fact: Stars including Miley Cyrus, Usher, and Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are known to depart and arrive at this airport.
To add on yet another impressive note, the airport takes its responsibilities in safeguarding the safety, security and health of its passengers and employees very seriously. Airports Council International (ACI) renewed Teterboro Airport’s accreditation in ACI’s Airport Health Accreditation program.
It was based on the evaluation of the measures and procedures introduced in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Teterboro was the first general aviation airport in the world to achieve this accreditation. Though pandemic concerns have died down, it is safe to say that its operations are highly reliable and proactive.
