Westchester County Airport: questions

What FBOs are at Westchester County 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 HPN; ask us which one your flight uses and we'll tell you before you go.

Can a large private jet use HPN?

HPN's longest paved runway is 6,549 ft at 439 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. The FAA record also restricts aircraft over 120,000 lb (prior permission or weight certification), which can affect the heaviest long-range jets. Weather, weight and the operator's rules decide each flight.

Does HPN have customs for international private flights?

Yes. The FAA lists HPN as a U.S. Customs landing-rights airport (arrivals from abroad request clearance in advance). Hours and notice requirements vary, so the operator files ahead and the arrival is planned around them.
