New York is reached by private jet via Teterboro (KTEB), Manhattan's business airport, twenty minutes from Midtown and entirely separate from the commercial traffic of JFK and Newark. Its 2,150-metre runway sometimes requires the heaviest aircraft to optimise load. Paris–New York is non-stop in seven to eight hours on an ultra-long-range jet; the time difference favours a morning departure for an early-afternoon local arrival.
Teterboro is Manhattan's business address: twenty minutes from Midtown, with a helicopter option to the East Side heliport. The time difference works for the traveller — leave Paris in the morning, arrive for lunch in New York. The shorter runway sometimes calls for load optimisation on the return, which our advisors anticipate at the quote stage.
On the ground, handling at Teterboro is provided by leading FBOs — Signature, Jet Aviation and Atlantic — for reception, formalities and boarding a few steps from the aircraft.
