FAQ
Frequently asked
How much is a private jet from New York to Bahamas?
Pricing depends on aircraft class and season. As a benchmark for the 1,770 km corridor: light jets typically start in the low $15,080 range one-way, midsize aircraft mid $20,850, and ultra-long-range jets from $36,160+. Weekend and peak-season slots carry a 20–40% premium.
What is the flight time from New York to Bahamas?
Block flight time is approximately 2h 31m on a typical midsize or larger aircraft. Add 20 minutes for the FBO ramp-to-aircraft transfer at each end — there are no security queues.
Do I need to clear US customs returning from the Caribbean?
Most flights pre-clear US customs at the Caribbean airport before departure (Nassau, Eleuthera, Exuma and Providenciales all offer pre-clearance). Aircraft then re-enter the US as a domestic flight.
Can pets fly on the route?
Yes — pets travel in the cabin alongside their owners on every Limitless Sky charter. Let us know the species and weight when you request a quote.
How early should I arrive at the FBO?
We recommend 20 minutes before departure for domestic flights and 30 minutes for international, including customs. There are no security queues — you drive to the aircraft.
