A private jet charter to Miami, United States, offers year-round access to one of North America’s most vibrant coastal cities. Business travellers attend financial summits, real estate negotiations in Brickell, or trade events at the Miami Beach Convention Center. Leisure visitors enjoy South Beach, luxury resorts in Coral Gables, and world-class yachting from exclusive marinas. Land minutes from Art Deco boulevards, turquoise waters, and the cultural districts of Wynwood and the Design District.
LunaJets arranges flights to Miami’s top private airports: Opa-locka Executive (OPF), the busiest hub for private jets; Miami Executive (TMB), favoured for corporate aviation; and Miami International (MIA), ideal for global connections. From there, we organise transfers to beachfront hotels, Key Biscayne villas, or yacht terminals. Many clients use Miami as a winter getaway, combining their stay with onward flights to the Florida Keys or the Bahamas.
With two decades of experience, LunaJets was the first European private jet broker to earn Argus® certification, an independent assessment of its brokerage practices. For Miami, we secure arrival slots during peak winter months and major events such as Art Basel Miami Beach, the Miami Grand Prix, or the Miami International Boat Show, ensuring direct access when demand is highest.
What is the best airport for private flights to and from Miami?
As a dedicated executive airport for South Florida, Miami Opa Locka Executive Airport (OPF/KOPF) offers an efficient alternative to Miami International. Positioned just north of the city center, it provides quick ground transfers to Downtown Miami, the Design District, and major business venues.

Things to do
Styled By MDD offers personal styling and wardrobe consultations in Miami's Design District, a neighbourhood devoted to fashion, design, art and architecture.

Where to stay
The Setai, Miami Beach offers oceanfront accommodation, with teak interiors in its Art Deco Suites and sea views and personalised service in its Ocean Suites.

Where to dine
Counter seating and an open kitchen shape the dining experience at L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon Miami in the Design District.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the entry requirements when flying private to Miami?
Private jet passengers to Miami must follow the United States’ entry rules. A valid passport is required, and travellers from countries in the Visa Waiver Program must also complete an ESTA authorisation before departure. Nationals who require a visa must obtain it in advance. Your LunaJets advisor will confirm the requirements for your nationality and ensure the necessary documents are in place for a smooth arrival.
How far in advance should I book a private jet to Miami?
It’s best to book a few weeks in advance to secure your preferred aircraft and slots, especially during high-demand periods such as Art Basel in December, the Miami International Boat Show in February, and the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix in May. These events drive a surge in private jet traffic across all Miami-area airports. That said, LunaJets often succeeds in arranging flights to Miami at short notice, even when demand is high.
Can I bring pets on a private jet to Miami? What are the rules?
Yes. Pets can travel in the cabin with you when flying private to Miami, provided they meet US entry requirements. Dogs and cats must have a valid rabies vaccination certificate, and in some cases additional health documents may be required depending on your country of departure. Regulations can change, so it’s important to let your LunaJets advisor know in advance—we will confirm the latest requirements and arrange the necessary paperwork to ensure a smooth arrival.
What alternate airports can I use when flying private to Miami?
Private jet travellers to Miami can choose between several airports. Opa-Locka Executive (OPF) is the busiest private aviation hub, just 30 minutes from South Beach. Miami Executive (TMB), south of the city, is ideal if you are heading to the Keys. Fort Lauderdale Executive (FXE) offers quick access to northern Miami and Palm Beach County. Miami International (MIA) is also available but usually less convenient for private flights due to commercial traffic and higher costs. Your LunaJets advisor will recommend the best airport based on your destination and schedule.
Are there curfews or restricted operating hours at Miami airports for private jets?
No. Miami International (MIA), Miami Executive (TMB), and Fort Lauderdale Executive (FXE) all offer private jet access 24 hours a day. Opa-Locka Executive (OPF) also supports 24/7 operations, though some services (such as air traffic control tower operations) may have reduced hours or require prior arrangement outside regular hours. Your LunaJets advisor will verify the relevant airport’s hours for your specific flight and arrange everything to accommodate your arrival or departure.
