New York (TEB) → Miami (OPF)

Private jet, New York to Miami.

Teterboro to Opa-Locka — the executive fields on both ends, skipping JFK and MIA entirely. Two and a half hours; the winter-season Thursday/Sunday waves are the densest private traffic on the East Coast.

Asked about this route.

How much is a private jet from New York to Miami?

From $8,000 one way for the whole aircraft (light category), up to $16,000 for the largest cabin that flies the lane. Every figure is all-in — fuel, crew, landing, 7.5% FET — and locked at acceptance.

How long is the flight?

The leg is 949 nm as the crow flies. Block time runs about 2h 20m in the fastest suitable category (super-mid), a little longer in a turboprop or light jet — the quote lists the estimate per aircraft.

Which airports does the flight use?

Teterboro (KTEB) on the New York end and Opa-Locka Exec. (KOPF) into Miami — chosen for ramp access and drive time, not airline convenience. If a different field suits your day better, dispatch will quote it; the price difference is usually minutes, not thousands.

Are there empty legs on this route?

Busy lanes generate repositioning flights, and this is one. Empty legs on the pair list at 30–60% off with locked dates — set a watchlist with the route and your date window and we'll text the moment one matches. One SMS per match, no spam.
