01 / Choosing an airport
Three airports. Different starting points.
Private jet charter to or from Miami starts with more than selecting “Miami.” Your hotel, meeting or onward journey can change which airport is convenient. The aircraft, passenger load and international arrangements also matter. These are three airports to discuss; the list is not exhaustive and does not establish availability.
Miami–Opa-locka Executive
Miami-Dade Aviation Department identifies OPF as a business-aviation airport with FBO services and U.S. customs facilities on the airfield. It is a useful starting point for discussing a Miami-area charter, subject to the operating carrier’s assessment.
Ask your team to compare the specific departure facility and ground journey with your other airport options. The airport’s published facilities do not mean every aircraft or departure time is suitable.
Plan from Opa-locka (OPF)Miami Executive
Miami Executive serves corporate and general aviation, with FBO facilities and private-aircraft customs clearance described by Miami-Dade Aviation Department. It is worth comparing when your ground plans are in South Miami-Dade.
Share your exact destination rather than choosing by airport name alone. Ask whether the proposed aircraft, payload and schedule can use TMB for your particular trip.
Plan from Miami Executive (TMB)Fort Lauderdale Executive
FXE is a Fort Lauderdale-area airport with charter operations, as described by its official visitor information. It is an alternative to discuss when your plans involve Fort Lauderdale or other parts of Broward County.
FXE is not in Miami. Compare the complete ground journey as well as the flight proposal before selecting it for a Miami visit.

Plan from door to destination.
Give us the address or area where your journey starts and ends, your preferred local flight times, guest count and luggage. Tell us whether you have a fixed meeting, event or connection. These details help us compare the complete ground journey as well as the flight.
- Ground destination: the hotel, business address, marina or onward stop.
- Schedule: travel dates, local times and which timings are flexible.
- Party and luggage: guests, bags, bulky items and cabin priorities.
- International travel: countries visited and any questions about entry or clearance arrangements.
Airport, tower, FBO and customs hours are different things. Facilities described online still need to be checked for your date and arrival. Your operating carrier confirms airport suitability and the required flight arrangements; a map or runway length alone cannot establish that an aircraft fits.
03 / Aircraft and cost
The itinerary shapes the aircraft.
A regional journey, a flight to New York and a trip to Europe call for different planning. Guest count and baggage affect the options too. Compare aircraft suited to the route, guest count and your cabin priorities.
Use our aircraft comparison from Opa-locka to compare published aircraft information, then explore a charter estimate for your itinerary. Range illustrations and estimated flying time are planning aids, not operational approval or confirmation of a particular aircraft.
Our estimated charter ranges are for the whole itinerary in USD, including our service fee. Review the assumptions and any taxes or extras identified with the result. The final quote depends on the actual aircraft, positioning, dates, airport services and confirmed requirements; it may differ from the estimate.
04 / A few useful answers
Before you enquire.
Can you compare more than one airport?
Yes. Tell us your preferred airport and the alternatives you would consider. We can review them as part of your request; the operating carrier determines which are suitable for the proposed flight.
Can I add ground transport?
Include your pickup, drop-off and luggage requirements in the enquiry. Ground services are separately confirmed. You can also explore The Road for our Florida car collection.
Are there empty legs from Miami?
Check the current empty-leg listings for dated opportunities. Routes change and a listing needs fresh confirmation. A regular charter request is the better starting point when your route or timing is fixed.
Does an enquiry reserve an aircraft?
No. It starts a conversation with Juliett Jets. We arrange charter as a broker; independent authorized carriers operate the flights. Review the carrier-confirmed proposal and terms before committing.
