About The Oscars
The Academy Awards, universally known as The Oscars, is the most prestigious ceremony in the entertainment industry. Held at the Dolby Theatre on Hollywood Boulevard, the event attracts the biggest names in film, fashion, and business.
From the iconic red carpet to the exclusive Vanity Fair after-party, Oscar weekend transforms Los Angeles into the epicentre of global glamour. Private jet arrivals at Van Nuys and Burbank airports peak as A-list celebrities, studio executives, and VIP guests fly in from around the world.
Van Nuys is the busiest private jet airport on earth, and Oscar week adds significant additional handling pressure on top of an already saturated baseline. For West Coast clients, light jets handle the short hops from San Francisco and Las Vegas comfortably. East Coast and international clients lean on heavy and ultra-long-range aircraft for the longer legs.
