Private Jet Charter to and from Boston

A dense business, education and life-sciences market where Hanscom Field can make the ground plan more efficient than a major commercial terminal.

Private charter is available in either direction.

Boston’s private-aviation choice is often a ground-time decision. Hanscom Field (BED) is around 20 miles northwest of the city and serves corporate aviation, private pilots, charters and limited commercial services. It can be especially practical for Cambridge, Lexington and the Route 128 corridor.

Massport identifies Hanscom as the region’s largest general-aviation airport, with FBO infrastructure supporting corporate and charter aircraft. Logan remains part of the wider Boston airport system, but the final address and mission should determine the preferred field.

The New York–Boston route is short. That makes the passenger schedule, terminal experience, weather and road journey important parts of the charter decision, not afterthoughts once the aircraft has been selected.
