Private Jet Charter at Teterboro Airport (TEB), New Jersey

• Skip the Big Three's Congestion: JFK, LaGuardia, and Newark handle heavy commercial traffic and shared airspace delays. Teterboro carries no scheduled airline service at all, so private aircraft move through a dedicated general aviation environment with faster ramp-to-wheels-up turnarounds.
• Five FBOs, Not One: Unlike many private-aviation gateways served by a single handler, Teterboro has five separate FBOs (Atlantic Aviation, Jet Aviation, and three Signature Aviation locations), giving real choice in ground handling, parking, and amenities.
• Closest General Aviation Field to Midtown: At 12 miles from Manhattan, Teterboro is the shortest ground transfer of any private-aviation-capable airport serving New York City. Ground transfer runs 25 to 40 minutes via the Lincoln Tunnel or George Washington Bridge; clients prioritizing speed over cost can arrange a helicopter transfer to Manhattan heliports (West 30th Street or Downtown Manhattan/Wall Street), cutting the connection to roughly 6 to 7 minutes.
• On Airport, Not Just Nearby: Teterboro is also home to the Aviation Hall of Fame and Museum of New Jersey, founded in 1972 on airport grounds, with a collection of historic aircraft, aviation artifacts, and a 4,000-volume library, a genuine on-site point of interest for aviation-minded clients passing through, not just an operational gateway.

Teterboro carries a 100,000-pound aircraft weight limit that has excluded commercial airline service since 1977, making it exclusively a general aviation and private charter field, with ground handling built specifically around business and private aircraft rather than shared commercial terminals.

Teterboro remains our default recommendation for New York-area private aviation, but ramp congestion, weather holds, or last-minute slot unavailability at TEB can make a nearby alternate the faster path to Manhattan on a given day. Your operator can route to one of the following on short notice:

Teterboro has five FBOs, giving operators and clients a genuine choice of ground handling providers.

Yes, from virtually any domestic or international origin, subject to the 100,000-pound aircraft weight limit covered in the feasibility table below. Teterboro operates two asphalt runways at a field elevation of 8.4 feet, both grooved and equipped for instrument approaches, with continuous tower attendance supporting arrivals and departures around the clock.

• Runway 01/19, 7,000 ft x 150 ft (6,997 ft actual, 2,133 m): The airport's longer runway. Runway 19 has an ILS approach with PAPI guidance; Runway 01 has a VASI system. Both ends carry REIL lighting and high-intensity runway edge lights. An EMAS overrun bed protects the Runway 19 departure end.
• Runway 06/24, 6,013 ft x 150 ft (6,014 ft actual, 1,833 m): The airport's shorter runway. Runway 06 has an ILS approach with a 1,400-foot MALSR approach lighting system; Runway 24 has PAPI guidance and touchdown/rollout RVR equipment. EMAS overrun beds protect both the Runway 06 and Runway 24 departure ends.
• From Domestic U.S. Origins: Light through heavy jets fly nonstop into Teterboro from virtually any airport in the continental United States without special routing considerations. Runway length is not a limiting factor for any standard business aircraft category at this field.
• From International Origins: Teterboro is a customs landing rights airport. International arrivals clear CBP directly on-site with Prior Permission Required (a minimum two-hour advance notice), avoiding a stop at a separate customs-designated airport first.
• Low-Visibility and Night Operations: Both runways support ILS approaches (Runway 19 and Runway 06), so Teterboro remains fully operational in low-ceiling and low-visibility conditions and after dark.
• Noise Abatement Timing: Operators file and follow published noise abatement procedures for every arrival and departure. Runway 19 is the airport's preferred runway for noise abatement generally, while Runway 24 carries the airport's strictest limits, an 80 dB cap between 10:00 PM and 7:00 AM, and 90 dB at all other hours, which can affect which runway and time slot your operator requests.
• Weight-Restricted Aircraft: Any aircraft certifying an operating weight near or above 100,000 lbs must submit that certification to the airport manager in advance; your operator handles this filing as part of standard trip planning (see the Aircraft Feasibility table below for which categories this affects).

Teterboro's two runways (7,000 ft and 6,013 ft) comfortably support the full range of business aircraft on runway length alone. The operative constraint at Teterboro is not runway length but the airport's 100,000-pound aircraft weight limit, in place since 1977 and federally codified specifically to keep commercial service out of a residential area.

As the primary NYC-area gateway, Teterboro is the most common origin point for the charters we arrange. Additional routes are available on request.

What's included and what's extra

• Included in your quote: everything known at the time of booking, including the aircraft, crew, fuel, standard handling and landing fees, and taxes such as the 7.5% federal excise tax on domestic flights.
• Possible extras: only fees that can't be known when you book, such as winter de-icing ($1,500 to $5,000 at Teterboro in January and February, when required), hangar fees, wait time fees and, occasionally, special event fees.

• Summer Weekend Surge (Memorial Day to Labor Day): The heaviest demand window at Teterboro, driven by Friday-afternoon and Sunday-evening traffic to the Hamptons, Nantucket, and Martha's Vineyard. Book 2 to 4 weeks ahead for weekend departures in this window.
• Winter Ski Season (December to March): A secondary demand surge toward Aspen, Jackson Hole, and other ski destinations, concentrated around holiday weeks.
• Holiday Congestion (Thanksgiving, Christmas/New Year's): The tightest ramp and slot availability of the year at TEB; book 4 to 8 weeks ahead.
• Winter Weather Delays: Nor'easters and lake-effect snow events can ground TEB operations temporarily even with full ILS capability; build schedule flexibility into winter charters.
• Named Event Spikes: Beyond the general seasonal pattern, specific annual events reliably tighten ramp and slot availability at Teterboro, including New York Fashion Week, the Tony Awards, the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, and major gallery and auction weeks. Clients traveling for any of these should book well outside the standard lead time.

Teterboro sits in a dense residential area and enforces mandatory noise abatement rules that directly affect flight scheduling.

• Stage 1 Ban: Stage 1 aircraft are not permitted to operate at Teterboro under any circumstances.
• Runway 24 Nighttime Limit: Runway 24 carries a stricter maximum noise limit of 80 dB between 10:00 PM and 7:00 AM local time, and 90 dB at all other hours.
• Runway 19 Noise Preference: Runway 19 is the airport's preferred runway for noise abatement procedures generally.
• Operator Filing: Your operator files the applicable noise abatement procedure ahead of every arrival and departure; this is a routine part of trip planning at TEB, not an added step you need to manage.

• Ground Transfer to Manhattan: Approximately 12 miles, typically 25 to 40 minutes by luxury vehicle depending on traffic and bridge/tunnel routing.
• Customs and Immigration: Teterboro is a customs landing rights airport; international arrivals require Prior Permission Required (PPR) with a minimum two-hour advance notice, filed by your operator.
• Weight Certification: Operators of aircraft near the 100,000 lb threshold must submit weight certification to the airport manager in advance; your operator manages this filing as part of standard trip planning.
• Overnight Parking: Ramp space at TEB is in high demand, particularly during peak summer and holiday periods; your operator secures parking and tiedowns well in advance.

Hogani Jets coordinates charter service through Teterboro as the primary gateway for New York metropolitan clients, whether the trip originates or terminates in the city.

Hogani Jets coordinates each Teterboro charter through licensed Part 135 operators. Hogani Jets does not operate the aircraft directly; every charter is conducted through a licensed Part 135 operator whose crew, maintenance, and operations remain under that operator's independent control, with certifications and safety records reviewed as part of every booking.

Every charter flies with a licensed FAA Part 135 operator, and we review each operator's certifications and safety record as part of every booking. Many excellent operators don't hold ARGUS or Wyvern ratings, so we don't require them, but we often recommend ARGUS- and Wyvern-rated operators to clients when those ratings add real value. See how we choose operators on our Safety & Operator Vetting page.

Through Hogani Jets, your operator manages FBO selection across Teterboro's five ground handlers, weight certification filings for larger aircraft, noise abatement compliance, and customs pre-clearance for international arrivals.
