Fort Lauderdale Executive Private Jet, FXE Access

FXE, a main physical runway length of 1,829 m

Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport, FXE / KFXE, has two intersecting runways. The main runway, 09/27, measures 6,002 feet physically, and the tower operates 24 hours. Our Geneva office arranges flights to or from FXE by confirming the private terminal and services for the requested time. Request a Fort Lauderdale Executive proposal with your Florida itinerary and the address you need to reach after landing.

Executive and Hollywood International are separate arrivals

The FAA places FXE approximately seven miles north of Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International, around 11 km between the airfields; that geographical reference is not a ground-transfer time. FXE and FLL identify different airports with their own facilities.

We use the actual private-terminal address when arranging your vehicle. Your stay location and appointments help determine the airport choice. A request referring only to Fort Lauderdale therefore needs clarification before aircraft proposals and ground transfers are compared. The confirmed itinerary should name the field as well as the specific reception point.

Two intersecting runways with different night availability

Runways 09/27 and 13/31 intersect. Their physical lengths are 6,002 feet and 4,000 feet respectively. The FAA publishes a night closure of 13/31 when 09/27 is operating at full length. The configuration applicable to your flight is checked; a continuously operating tower does not mean that every runway is available at every hour.

The aircraft operator assesses the runway and applicable distances for the proposed aircraft; we provide passenger and baggage details so the answer relates to the programme being offered. A lighter arrival and a departure carrying fuel for the following sector need to be considered in their respective conditions.

Plan the stay with IBC Aviation

We match the air itinerary to the address you need to reach in Florida, then compare available aircraft. For a return trip, the return date and flexibility required are established from the outset. They influence whether the aircraft stays nearby or repositions during your visit.

Reception arrangements cover the selected terminal and the services required at the flight time. Send us your Fort Lauderdale programme to have those elements coordinated in one proposal. IBC Aviation acts as an independent broker and has the aircraft operator confirm operational conditions, with the agreed ground arrangements set out alongside them.

The night preference also depends on wind

The FAA describes a preference for departures on 27 and arrivals on 09 at night when wind permits; that arrangement does not reserve a runway direction for a charter client. The crew prepares the movement with air traffic control for the conditions applying at the time.

Our teams have a late schedule checked with ground assistance, including any fuel required for the next departure. If a necessary service is not confirmed, the programme is adjusted before booking. Private-terminal assistance and tower availability meet different needs and should both fit the flight being retained.

Customs has a dedicated arrival arrangement

The customs facility has its own ramp, described by the FAA as accessed through G7. International passengers follow the arrangements for that inspection before their onward transfer. We confirm arrival instructions and the collection point with the ground handler, rather than assuming that a standard domestic meeting point applies.

Customs hours are separate from tower hours. They are confirmed for the flight with the necessary permission, without inferring continuous customs service from 24-hour air traffic control. Where several American sectors follow, the international entry and subsequent flights are coordinated as parts of the complete programme.

Choose a cabin for the route rather than the airport code

A Phenom 300 may be considered for some regional links. A Challenger 350 may enter the search where more space is needed, depending on the mission. We assess the actual cabin and performance of the available aircraft.

Our indicative pricing references in EUR start at EUR 4,000 per hour for light jets and EUR 5,500 for the super-midsize category. They are neither total trip prices nor contractual US rates. The quotation includes positioning and the arrangements selected for the programme.

For flights to or from FXE, have a proposal prepared with the correct terminal. We bring together the flight and the services required for your stay before you make a decision.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a Fort Lauderdale Executive private flight cost?

Our indicative references in EUR start at EUR 4,000 per hour for a light jet and EUR 5,500 for the super-midsize category. These are neither total prices nor contractual US local rates. Travel dates and aircraft positioning complete the assessment for the actual quotation.

How long is a private flight from FXE?

Flight time is calculated for the other airport, selected aircraft and direction, taking account of winds. The operator checks direct-flight feasibility and departure payload. Any intermediate stage needed is identified in the proposal, together with the arrangements for international reception where applicable.

Is FXE the same airport as Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood?

No. FXE / KFXE identifies Fort Lauderdale Executive, a business and general aviation airfield. Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International is a separate airport, identified as FLL. We confirm the field and actual terminal before arranging passenger collection and the onward ground transfer for the proposed flight.

Does a 24-hour tower mean both runways and customs operate all night?

No. The tower operates continuously, but the FAA publishes a night closure of 13/31 when 09/27 is operating at full length. Customs has separate hours and conditions. We confirm the runway configuration and services needed for your flight.
