Van Nuys (VNY) is the busiest private aviation airport on the planet, handling more business jet movements than anywhere else in the world. It’s the natural choice for clients heading to Beverly Hills, Bel Air, and Studio City. Santa Monica (SMO) is the boutique alternative for Westside-based clients (Pacific Palisades, Brentwood, Malibu). Burbank (BUR) suits studio and Valley access. LAX has a private VIP terminal for clients connecting with commercial flights.
LA charter demand is steady year-round but peaks around award season (Oscars in March, Grammys in February, Emmys in September) and major industry events. Helicopter transfers between airports and destinations are common given LA traffic and cross-city distance.
