Frequently Asked Questions

Which airports around Portland are good alternatives for private aviation, and when are they useful?

Portland International (PDX) is the primary choice for most private jet travellers — for runway length, full services, and ease of access. Alternatives like Hillsboro Airport (HIO) or Aurora State Airport (UAO) may be better if you prefer less busy airports, faster ground transfers, or are flying smaller aircraft. LunaJets will analyze your aircraft, arrival time, and destination, and recommend the best airport for your itinerary.

What visa or entry requirements apply when flying private into Portland (Oregon)?

All travellers flying privately to Portland must follow U.S. entry rules. Nationals of Visa Waiver Program countries may use ESTA for visits up to 90 days. Travellers from non-VWP countries must obtain a B-1/B-2 visa prior to travel. Passports should be valid for the duration of the visit with space for entry stamps. LunaJets will verify the requirements for your nationality and ensure documentation is complete.

Are there curfews or restricted operating hours at Portland International (PDX) for private jets?

No. PDX supports private jet operations at all hours. Atlantic Aviation’s FBO and other private-aviation services are available 24/7. LunaJets will ensure your arrival or departure, even if it’s late or very early, is coordinated with all necessary services.

How far in advance should I book a private jet to Portland (Oregon)?

Portland has peaks during summer tourism (June-August), major festivals, and trade shows. It’s best to book a few weeks in advance for such times. LunaJets often arranges flights to Portland at short notice, even during busy periods.

Can I bring my pet on a private flight to Portland (Oregon)?

Yes, you can bring pets on a private jet to Portland. Dogs must be at least 6 months old, microchipped, vaccinated against rabies, and travel with a CDC Dog Import Form. Cats are not subject to CDC rabies rules, but Oregon requires rabies vaccination for both dogs and cats, as well as a Certificate of Veterinary Inspection. If your dog has recently been in a high-risk rabies country, arrival must be through an airport with a CDC-registered animal care facility. LunaJets will confirm the latest requirements and ensure all documents are in order.
