Why Fly Private
The US Open venue is in Queens, New York — minutes from LaGuardia Airport but a long drive from JFK or Newark in Labor Day weekend traffic. Private charter into KTEB or KHPN puts you closer to Manhattan hospitality while avoiding the commercial terminal crowds.
The tournament spans two weeks but the highest-demand days are the quarter-finals, semi-finals, and finals. Many attendees fly in for a specific match or weekend rather than the full tournament.
September in New York is peak corporate entertaining season. The US Open coincides with Fashion Week and the UN General Assembly. Private aviation demand across the metro area is elevated for the entire month.

Insider Tips
Teterboro (KTEB) is the primary private aviation airport for the New York metro area. It is 18 miles from Flushing Meadows and the drive takes 25-40 minutes depending on traffic.
If you are staying in Manhattan, consider a helicopter transfer from KTEB to the East 34th Street Heliport. The flight is 7 minutes and eliminates the bridge and tunnel traffic.
Evening session matches start at 7 PM and can run late. If flying out the same night, plan for a flexible departure time — tennis matches do not have a fixed end time.
Corporate box and hospitality packages often include ground transportation to and from the venue. Confirm this with your host before arranging separate cars.
