Private Jet Charter From DeKalb-Peachtree Airport

DeKalb-Peachtree Airport is the preferred private aviation gateway to Atlanta, Buckhead, and the northern suburbs of DeKalb and Fulton counties. Located in Chamblee, approximately 10 miles northeast of downtown Atlanta and minutes from Buckhead, Brookhaven, and the Perimeter business corridor, PDK is one of the busiest general aviation airports in the United States, handling no scheduled commercial traffic. For executives, entertainment industry travellers, and high net worth residents of Buckhead, Druid Hills, and the northern metro, PDK is faster and far more accessible than Hartsfield-Jackson.

For premium charter clients, DeKalb-Peachtree offers three well-equipped fixed base operators, including Signature Flight Support, Atlantic Aviation, and Epps Aviation, providing private passenger lounges, planeside vehicle access, and complete separation from commercial operations. The airport's location inside the Perimeter, with direct access to GA-400, I-85, and Peachtree Road, makes it the fastest gateway to central Atlanta for private charter. ParaFlight coordinates aircraft, FBO arrangements, and chauffeured ground transport across the Atlanta metro, from Buckhead and Midtown through to Alpharetta, Roswell, and Lake Lanier.
