Raleigh
Private Jet Charter

Raleigh offers several excellent options for private jet charters. The primary commercial airport is Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU), located about 12 miles northwest of downtown Raleigh with dedicated FBOs (like Signature Flight Support and Jet Aviation), full facilities, and customs for international arrivals. For superior privacy and convenience, Raleigh Executive Jetport (TTA) is a preferred choice for private/business aviation, located about 20 miles south in Sanford with excellent FBO services and lower traffic. Additional options include Horace Williams Airport (IGX) for smaller aircraft closer to Chapel Hill. Stratos Jets private flight advisors can recommend the best airport based on your itinerary, group size, aircraft type, and need to avoid crowds.

Costs vary based on aircraft type, flight distance, passenger count, and amenities, but hourly rates typically range from $2,000-$5,000 for light jets on shorter routes, $5,000-$10,000 for midsize jets, and higher for long-range heavy jets. Popular short routes like from Atlanta, Charlotte, or Miami keep costs more affordable, while longer flights from Teterboro or Chicago add to the price. Contact Stratos Jets for a personalized quote that factors in your origin and peak travel times, such as college events or business conferences.

Popular routes include inbound flights from Teterboro (New York area), Chicago, Atlanta, Miami, Boston, and other East Coast/Midwest hubs, as well as regional connections from Charlotte or Washington D.C. These are favored for business travel to the Research Triangle Park, university events (Duke, NC State, UNC), tech/biotech conferences, or weekend getaways.

Private charters provide customizable luxury amenities such as gourmet catering, high-speed Wi-Fi, spacious cabins, in-flight entertainment, extra cargo space for gear, and full concierge services for ground transportation (private car or limo), hotel bookings (e.g., The Umstead Hotel & Spa or The Raleigh Marriott City Center), dining reservations, sports tickets, or tour planning.
