Westchester County Airport (HPN)

Private Jet Charter From Westchester County Airport

Westchester County Airport is the principal private aviation gateway to Westchester County, Greenwich, and the Connecticut Gold Coast. Located in White Plains, approximately 33 miles northeast of Midtown Manhattan and within 15 to 20 minutes of Greenwich, HPN handles a small amount of regional commercial service alongside an extensive private aviation operation. For executives, hedge fund and private equity travellers based in lower Fairfield County and northern Westchester, HPN is consistently the most convenient gateway to and from the New York metropolitan area, often preferred over Teterboro for clients living north of the city.

For premium charter clients, Westchester offers two well-equipped fixed base operators, Signature Flight Support and Million Air, providing private passenger lounges, planeside vehicle access, and full operational separation from commercial traffic. The airport is a short drive from the corporate campuses of Greenwich, Stamford, Rye, and Armonk, and the FBOs handle aircraft from light jets through to long-range transatlantic equipment. ParaFlight coordinates aircraft, FBO arrangements, and ground transport to estates, offices, and weekend destinations across the New York and Connecticut tri-state area.
