The main field, on the east side of town, about 15 minutes from downtown. The general aviation side sits away from the airline terminal: you drive to the FBO, walk through a lounge and board with the car parked beside the aircraft. Its 11,000 foot runway takes any size aircraft, and it is the only Nashville airport with customs on the field.

The airports we use in Nashville, and why.
The quieter option on the west side, about 15 minutes from downtown and Belle Meade. One small terminal, no airline traffic, and you are airborne a few minutes after you park. Its runway is about 5,500 feet, so it suits turboprops and light jets; a midsize jet can use it with a lighter fuel load.
The southeast option, about 25 to 35 minutes from Brentwood and Murfreesboro. An 8,000 foot runway takes any size aircraft, and charter operators keep aircraft on the field, which can save a positioning leg on a busy day.
Aircraft based near Nashville.
Nashville is home, and we source here every week. Light jets make up the bulk of what bases at BNA: Learjet 45XR and 75, Citation CJ4, Phenom 300 and Beechjet 400A, the aircraft that do the Florida and Gulf coast runs. Midsize jets based here include the Hawker 800 and 900XP, the Learjet 60 and the Citation Excel. Super midsize cover comes from Challenger 300 and 3500 aircraft at BNA, and a Legacy 600 and regional airliners at Smyrna handle groups of 12 or more. Within an hour's flight, Louisville and Chattanooga add Citation CJ3, Citation Bravo, Citation X and Falcon 2000 aircraft, and a Pilatus PC-12 bases in central Kentucky. All of it is available from our sourcing network; none of it is ours, and we say so.
Very light and light jets
Very light and light jets bring our smaller jet options together. Start with a very light jet for two to four travelers, or a light jet for a group of six to eight, depending on the aircraft and baggage. Both suit shorter trips where a compact cabin works well. Very light options include the Citation Mustang, Cirrus Vision Jet and Phenom 100. Light jet options include the Citation CJ3, CJ4, Phenom 300 and Learjet 75 and 45XR.

7 to 9 seats · about four hours nonstopMidsize jets
A midsize jet is the first category where you stand up, walk to the lavatory and close a door behind you. Seven to nine seats, about four hours nonstop, and a baggage bay that takes a week of luggage or skis for everyone on board. It is the workhorse of charter for a reason: it fits families, small teams and couples who want room, and it still uses runways that a heavy jet cannot. The midsize jets we source from our sourcing network are the Citation Excel and XLS+, the Hawker 800XP and 900XP, and the Learjet 60. The Excel and XLS+ and the Hawkers are aircraft we place clients on regularly from our sourcing network.

8 to 10 seats · about five hours nonstop, coast to coastSuper midsize jets
A super midsize jet is what you pick when the trip runs past four hours or the group runs past eight. It flies coast to coast nonstop, it is faster than a midsize, and the cabin is wide enough that two people can pass in the aisle. Eight to ten seats, a full stand up cabin on the Latitude and the Challengers, a real galley, and baggage you can reach in flight on some of them. The super midsize jets we source from our sourcing network are the Citation Latitude, the Citation X, and the Challenger 300 and 3500. The Latitude and the Citation X are aircraft we place clients on regularly from our sourcing network.

Fly. Your flight crew flies the trip. We arrange catering, cars and any changes, and you have one number the whole way, before, during and after.
Every airplane has to fit the trip.
- We review the airplane, its condition, the pilots’ experience and the requirements of your trip.
- Our starting preference is an airframe from 2005 or newer. An exception comes with an explanation.
- Your written quote identifies the airplane, what the price includes and the terms that could change it.
Private jet charter from Nashville questions.
How much does a private jet from Nashville cost?
Your emailed planning estimate shows the current range by aircraft category for your dates and destination. As a rule, a light jet to the Florida coast sits in the lower band, and a midsize jet costs more per trip but gives you a stand up cabin. Dates, aircraft availability and positioning move the number inside the range. Your quote will be exact.
How far in advance should I book from Nashville?
For a normal week, three to five days gives us more choice of aircraft. For Thanksgiving, Christmas week, spring break and the summer holiday weekends, book two to four weeks out. We can often arrange a flight the same day; the choices are just fewer and the price sits higher in the range.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes, on nearly every aircraft we source. Tell us the breed and size when you request the quote. Some operators add a cleaning fee for pets, and we put it in the quote so nothing surprises you on the invoice.
How much luggage fits?
A light jet carries about six to eight standard bags in its baggage compartment. Midsize and larger aircraft carry more, and some hold golf bags and skis where a light jet cannot. Count the bags and tell us about anything long or bulky, and we pick an aircraft with the space.
Can we get catering?
Yes. Light jets carry snacks, drinks and a cold spread from a small galley. Midsize and larger aircraft carry a fuller meal. Order two days ahead when you can and the operator's crew stocks the aircraft before you board. Requested catering is itemized in the written quote; confirm the cost before ordering.
