Private Jet
to Los Angeles.
The entertainment capital of the world. Served privately.
Los Angeles operates on a different logic from other cities: distance is measured in minutes, not miles, and the right airport is the one closest to your meeting. Van Nuys is the busiest general aviation airport in the world — a fully private facility in the heart of the San Fernando Valley, equidistant from Beverly Hills, Malibu and the studios in Burbank.
We route our European clients through the right LA gateway based on their itinerary. A film premiere in Hollywood calls for different logistics than a venture capital meeting in Santa Monica. Whatever the occasion, we make sure your aircraft, your ground transport and your schedule are aligned before you land.

Questions about
flying to Los Angeles.
Which LA airport is best for a private jet arrival?
Van Nuys is the right answer for most clients — it is the world's busiest general aviation airport and has no commercial traffic. For clients heading to Hollywood or Burbank, the Bob Hope airport is more convenient. Santa Monica suits West Side arrivals with smaller aircraft.
Can I fly non-stop from Europe to Los Angeles?
Yes, on ultra-long-range aircraft. The Gulfstream G650, Bombardier Global 7500, and Gulfstream G550 can all fly London or Paris to LA non-stop. The flight time is approximately 11 to 12 hours westbound.
How do I get from Van Nuys to Beverly Hills or Malibu?
By car, Van Nuys to Beverly Hills is approximately 25 minutes in normal traffic. Malibu adds another 20 to 30 minutes. We coordinate your ground transport to be waiting on the apron. Helicopter transfers to a private helipad in Beverly Hills or the Malibu coast are available on request.
Is LA a good origin for empty legs back to Europe?
Yes. LA generates significant westbound repositioning traffic, particularly after major events like the Oscars or Coachella. We monitor empty leg availability from Van Nuys and LAX regularly and can alert you when suitable flights become available.
What are the busiest times to fly private into LA?
Award season in February and March, Coachella in April, and summer from June through August are the highest-demand periods. We recommend booking at least 3 to 4 weeks in advance during these windows.
