Palm Beach Private Jets, DJT Airport, Former PBI

Palm Beach now uses DJT / KDJT

The former Palm Beach International was renamed President Donald J. Trump International Airport on 9 July 2026; its IATA code became DJT on 18 August 2026, and its ICAO code is KDJT. This is the same West Palm Beach airport, still overseen by Palm Beach County; our Geneva office prepares flights to or from the airport by confirming the aircraft and private terminal. Request your Palm Beach quotation with your dates and travel programme.

A new code for the same destination

PBI still appears in documents, familiar search terms and materials being updated. The official FAQ updated in August 2026 nevertheless confirms DJT as the current IATA code. The FAA identifier DJT and ICAO identifier KDJT had already changed in July. Our teams use the current codes and match older documents to the airport they concern.

You can therefore describe your request as “Palm Beach, former PBI”. To prevent the two names from being treated as alternative arrival airports, the county states that ownership and operational control did not change with the name. Flight conditions still need checking for the selected date, regardless of which version of the name appears on signs or previous travel documents.

Budgeting for the flight and the stay

A flight to or from Florida is priced around the actual origin, cabin requirements and dates. For a crossing from Europe, the quotation must also consider positioning and the return programme. An hourly amount alone cannot establish a one-way total. Our category pricing references explain those differences without constituting a contractual US price.

A fixed return can be assessed during the initial aircraft search. Where you need several possible return dates, we distinguish what can be confirmed from what remains subject to availability. Aircraft parking and crew scheduling then influence the arrangements. Those conditions are set out in the proposal before you make your decision, rather than left to be settled during the stay.

Three runways, with different landing distances

The main runway therefore does not provide its full physical length for landing. Thresholds and declared distances reduce the figure the operator can use. Our teams ask for a performance assessment at the planned weight, with weather and runway conditions taken into account, before considering the aircraft suitable for the programme.

IBC Aviation arranges your West Palm Beach reception

Our Geneva office coordinates the charter with the operator and local handler. We ask for your stay address and where passengers need to go after arrival. Private-terminal collection, vehicle choice and luggage volume are planned together, with a confirmed meeting point for the driver and passengers.

For an international arrival, we confirm the required formalities and the arrangements available for the flight. An older airport fact sheet carrying PBI does not establish the conditions applying on the day. Send our teams your Palm Beach itinerary, particularly if another American or European stop follows the stay and needs to be included in the same programme.

Selecting a cabin for the crossing and onward travel

A Gulfstream G700 or Global 7500 may be considered for an ultra-long-range mission. We assess the actual cabin offered, luggage and onboard-rest requirements alongside the range needed for the itinerary. Runway length establishes neither model availability nor a direct crossing under every set of conditions.

If your programme includes a domestic flight after Palm Beach, that sector is assessed on its own requirements. Passenger and luggage information needs to remain consistent, but the selected aircraft and operator may differ. Our teams coordinate the stages without presenting the aircraft used for the crossing as automatically suitable for every subsequent part of the stay.

Flight time is supplied for the proposal under consideration, in the direction requested; it reflects the aircraft and any technical-stop requirement. For travel to Europe, we also coordinate the planned arrival with the reception conditions at the chosen European airport, rather than selecting that destination independently of the transatlantic schedule.

Information to gather before booking

• Airport: Palm Beach, DJT / KDJT, with older PBI references matched to the current identity
• Calendar: arrival date, intended return and fixed appointments
• Cabin: passenger count, luggage and onboard-rest requirements
• Onward arrangements: final address and any additional flight sectors

A clear programme allows proposals to be compared on the same basis and identifies conditions still requiring confirmation. Our Geneva office can arrange your next flight to or from Palm Beach, using the current airport codes and the requirements of your trip.

Frequently asked questions

Are PBI and DJT different airports?

No. The former Palm Beach International is the same airport, renamed on 9 July 2026. Its ICAO code is KDJT and its IATA code has been DJT since 18 August 2026. Palm Beach County retains ownership and control of the airport.

How much does a private jet to Palm Beach cost?

For a crossing from Europe, our indicative reference in EUR is around EUR 9,000 to EUR 12,000 per hour in the ultra-long-range category. This is neither a total trip price nor a contractual US rate. Aircraft positioning and the planned return are included in the quotation.

How long is a crossing from Europe?

Flight time varies with the European airport, aircraft, winds and direction. It is established for the selected proposal, including a technical stop if necessary. A published time for another route does not establish the duration of your own Palm Beach flight.

Does the main runway provide 3,048 m for landing?

Its physical length is approximately 3,048 m, or 10,001 feet. Declared landing distances are shorter: 8,151 feet on 10L and 8,240 feet on 28R. The operator uses those values and the flight conditions in its performance assessment.
