Nantucket Memorial Airport: questions
What FBOs are at Nantucket Memorial Airport?
We don't list FBO names: the FAA's airport record doesn't include them, and directories that do aren't ours to republish. An FBO (fixed-base operator) is the private terminal: lounge, fuel, ramp, hangar and ground handling. On a charter, the operator chooses the FBO at ACK; ask us which one your flight uses and we'll tell you before you go.
Can a large private jet use ACK?
ACK's longest paved runway is 6,303 ft at 47 ft elevation. As general guidance, light jet, midsize jet, super-midsize jet and large jets usually fit; ultra-long-range jets often do with less fuel or fewer passengers. Weather, weight and the operator's rules decide each flight.
Does ACK have customs for international private flights?
The FAA's record doesn't list U.S. Customs at ACK. A private flight arriving from abroad clears at an airport of entry first, then continues. Ask us and we'll route it.
