Private Jet Charter Teterboro
Teterboro Airport · TEB / KTEB · New York metro, United States
Manhattan's private jet front door — twelve miles from Midtown.
Teterboro (KTEB) is the busiest dedicated business-aviation airport in the United States and the de-facto private terminal for New York City. With five FBOs, customs on-field and a sub-30-minute chauffeur ride into Midtown, it handles the lion's share of corporate, ULR and transatlantic charter into NYC.
WHY TETERBORO
Positioning
KTEB is a noise-restricted, weight-restricted airport that exists specifically for general aviation — there is no scheduled airline traffic, which means no security queue, no terminal walk, and ramp-to-car times measured in minutes. Heavy and ultra-long-range traffic that cannot meet KTEB's 100,000 lb maximum take-off weight (such as the Boeing Business Jet or fully-fuelled Global 7500 on long legs) repositions to KEWR, KJFK or KHPN. For most G650, Global 6000, Falcon 8X and super-midsize charter, however, Teterboro is the right call every time.
OPERATIONAL DETAIL
Runway, slots, curfew & customs
- Runway
- Runway 06/24 — 7,000 ft (2,134 m). Accommodates all heavy and ULR jets within the 100,000 lb MTOW limit.
- Slots
- No slot coordination required, but Teterboro operates strict noise abatement procedures. Voluntary nightly curfew 23:00–06:00 local; arrivals and departures outside the curfew incur additional handling and noise-monitoring fees.
- Curfew
- Voluntary noise curfew 23:00–06:00 local. Late-night arrivals are accepted but discouraged; we plan ahead with the operator and notify the FBO.
- Customs & immigration
- US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) on-field — international arrivals clear at Signature or Atlantic in 10–15 minutes, walked directly from the aircraft.
- Handling
- Five competing FBOs keep handling times short. We request a slot 24 hours ahead during peak weeks (UNGA, F1 Miami repositioning, summer Hamptons rotations) — same-day arrivals are routine outside those windows.
- Ground transfer
- Chauffeured car to Midtown Manhattan in 18–28 minutes depending on Lincoln Tunnel traffic. Helicopter shuttles to the West 30th Street Heliport take 8 minutes — useful at rush hour. Our concierge arranges both before block-out.
