Private Jet Charter to Las Vegas (LAS), Nevada
Private jets to Las Vegas land at Harry Reid International (ICAO: KLAS, IATA: LAS), 5 miles south of town. Charter rates run from $1,300 per flight hour on a turboprop to $20,000 on an ultra-long-range jet. Its 14,835-foot runway takes every aircraft size, and both FBOs run 24 hours. A dedicated private-aviation customs facility opened there in September 2026. Henderson Executive (HSH), 11 miles south, offers a quieter 6,501-foot runway. North Las Vegas (VGT), 3 miles northwest of downtown, suits turboprops and light jets. Hogani Jets coordinates every flight through licensed Part 135 operators.
- Skip the airline terminal: private flights use FBOs on their own side of the field, away from one of the busiest passenger terminals in the country.
- Pick the right airport: three Clark County airports let you trade Strip proximity for quieter ramps and easier parking.
- Arrive on your schedule: Fight nights, conventions, and race weekends run late, and so can a charter departure from Harry Reid.
Airport | Codes | Longest Runway | Elevation | Location | Tower Hours |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Harry Reid International | KLAS / LAS | 14,835 ft | 2,183 ft | 5 mi south of the city | 24 hours |
Henderson Executive | KHND / HSH | 6,501 ft | 2,491 ft | 11 mi south of the city | 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM |

Harry Reid has four runways, the longest being 8L/26R at 14,835 feet. It is a customs landing rights airport, and general aviation customs needs a 12-hour advance reservation. Turbojet departures are not permitted on Runways 1L/19R or 1R/19L between 8:00 PM and 8:00 AM.
Airport | FBO | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Harry Reid (LAS) | Signature Aviation | 24-hour FBO with lounges, crew rest areas, and ground transport coordination |
Harry Reid (LAS) | Atlantic Aviation | 24-hour FBO with passenger lounge, crew suite, hangar space and concierge |
Henderson (HSH) | Henderson Executive Airport FBO | County-run full-service FBO, airport open 5:00 AM to 10:30 PM |
North Las Vegas (VGT) | North Las Vegas Airport FBO | County-run full-service FBO with Jet A |
Yes, from almost anywhere in North America. Distance decides the aircraft, and three rules shape the plan.
- Domestic nonstops: light jets cover California and Arizona. Midsize jets cover Texas and Colorado, and super midsize jets fly coast to coast.
- International arrivals: clear customs at Harry Reid, the only customs airport of the three. Henderson and North Las Vegas are not ports of entry.
- Late departures: Henderson and North Las Vegas close their towers in the evening, so late flights leave from Harry Reid.
A dedicated customs facility for general aviation opened on the west side of Harry Reid on September 18, 2026. It separates private international arrivals from airline passengers. It is built for more than 1,000 international private arrivals a year.
Aircraft Category | Harry Reid (LAS) | Henderson (HSH) | North Las Vegas (VGT) |
|---|---|---|---|
Turboprop | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Very Light and Light Jet | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Midsize and Super Midsize | Yes | Yes | Not quoted |
Heavy and Ultra-Long-Range | Yes | Summer performance check | No |
VIP Business Jet | Yes (wingspan over 135 ft needs approval for Taxiway H) | No | No |
Las Vegas summer highs often pass 105°F. On such a day, density altitude nears 5,800 feet at Harry Reid and 6,200 feet at Henderson. Thin, hot air lengthens takeoff runs and can cut payload on long westbound or transcontinental legs.
In practice, heavy jets out of Henderson in July may need to carry less fuel. That can mean a fuel stop that Harry Reid's longer runway would avoid.

Route | Distance | Estimated One-Way Cost | Flight Time (approx.) |
|---|---|---|---|
Scottsdale (SDL) to Las Vegas (LAS) | 218 nm | $5,100 - $8,300 (turboprop- 2-hour daily minimum ) | 1 hr |
Van Nuys (VNY) to Las Vegas (LAS) | 199 nm | $7,300 - $14,800 (light jet, 2-hour daily minimum) | 50 min |
Denver Centennial (APA) to Las Vegas (LAS) | 531 nm | $8,920 - $16,700 (midsize) | 1 hr 25 min |
Los Cabos (SJD) to Las Vegas (LAS) | 826 nm | $18,300 - $26,375 (midsize) | 2 hr 15 min |
Dallas Love Field (DAL) to Las Vegas (LAS) | 925 nm | $18,440 - $27,650 (midsize) | 2 hr 20 min |
Chicago Executive (PWK) to Las Vegas (LAS) | 1,314 nm | $21,100 - $29,875 (midsize) | 3 hr 15 min |
Miami-Opa Locka (OPF) to Las Vegas (LAS) | 1,884 nm | $34,125 - $42,750 (super midsize) | 4 hr 15 min |
Teterboro (TEB) to Las Vegas (LAS) | 1,935 nm | $36,250 - $47,500 (super midsize) | 4 hr 30 min |
London Farnborough (FAB) to Las Vegas (LAS) | 4,531 nm | $135,000 - $190,000 (ultra-long-range) | 9 hr 30 min |
New York shows the range trap clearly. A midsize jet's range of 2,200 nm looks enough for 1,935 nm. Westbound headwinds and a full cabin cut that margin, so a super midsize removes the fuel stop.
- CES (January): the city's largest convention fills FBO ramps early in the year.
- Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix: the 2026 race runs November 19 to 21.
- National Finals Rodeo (December): a steady December rush of private arrivals from Texas and the Mountain West.
- Summer (June to September): the quietest ramps, but the hottest days and the tightest aircraft performance.
Event-Week Parking Reservations
The FAA has run a Grand Prix parking reservation program in Las Vegas every year since 2023. In 2025, it covered all four area airports, including Boulder City, from November 18 to 25. Expect the same for the November 19 to 21, 2026 race, with reservations made through your FBO. Flights without a reservation face long delays or possible denial of service.
- Luxury stays: Four Seasons Hotel Las Vegas, Waldorf Astoria Las Vegas, and Conrad Las Vegas sit on or beside the Strip. JW Marriott Las Vegas Resort is in Summerlin.
- Ground time: From a Harry Reid FBO, most Strip resorts are a short car ride away.
Hogani Jets is an air charter broker, not an aircraft operator. Every Las Vegas flight is coordinated through licensed Part 135 operators, who hold full operational control.
Every operator's Part 135 certificate, insurance coverage, and safety record is independently reviewed before booking, with ARGUS, Wyvern, or IS-BAO ratings considered where they exist as one part of that review.
Quotes come as one all-in aircraft price, with unknowns such as extra waiting time flagged early.

Can I do a same-day Las Vegas trip by private jet from Los Angeles?
Yes. A round trip on a light jet usually runs $4,600 to $7,600 in flight time. The crew waits, or repositions to park, while you are in town.
Can my jet stay parked at Harry Reid during my trip?
Sometimes. General aviation parking at Harry Reid is very limited. Your aircraft may drop you off and park at Henderson, then return for pickup.
How early should I book a private jet for the Las Vegas Grand Prix?
As soon as your dates are firm. Book the return at the same time, since post-race departures bunch together after the checkered flag.
Do I go through TSA screening when flying private from Las Vegas?
Most private charters skip the airline checkpoint entirely. The operator checks passenger ID at the FBO. Very large aircraft can require TSA screening.
Can I carry large amounts of cash on a private jet from Las Vegas?
On domestic flights there is no cash limit. Leaving the country with more than $10,000 requires a report to US Customs on FinCEN Form 105.
How many people can fly to Las Vegas on one private jet?
Up to 19 on a Gulfstream G450. Bigger groups can charter a VIP airliner into Harry Reid, or split across two jets.
What is the cheapest way to fly private to Las Vegas?
Look for empty legs, which are common on the Los Angeles to Las Vegas corridor. From Arizona, a turboprop costs far less than a jet for a similar door-to-door time.
Can I fly private into Boulder City near Lake Mead?
Yes, on a turboprop or light jet. Boulder City Municipal has a 5,103-foot runway and no control tower. Grand Canyon tour traffic is heavy around the field.
Can I book a private jet to Las Vegas at short notice?
Usually, yes. Plenty of aircraft are based across the Southwest, so a next-day flight is common outside major event weeks.
How much does a private jet cost per person for a Vegas group trip?
Eight friends on a midsize jet from Dallas pay about $2,300 to $3,460 each, one way. Per-person cost falls as the group fills the cabin.
