Private Jet Charter to Nassau, Bahamas

Nassau is the most-flown private jet gateway in the Bahamas — under an hour from South Florida and a favorite for weekends, island-hopping, and business travel.

Nassau Airport & FBOs

Lynden Pindling International Airport (LPIA — NAS / MYNN) is Nassau’s airport and the main private-jet gateway to the Bahamas. Its ~11,000-foot runway handles every business-jet category from turboprops to heavy, large-cabin jets, with a dedicated general-aviation side separate from the commercial terminals.

The FBOs we use at Nassau include Jet Aviation, Odyssey Aviation, and Executive Flight Support — full handling, fuel, and fast, private customs/immigration processing. Your Fly Bitlux desk picks the FBO based on your aircraft and arrival timing and pre-coordinates the ground transfer to your hotel, Paradise Island, or the marina.

Entry: Bahamas arrival & US customs on the way back

On arrival, aircraft clear Bahamas customs and immigration at an airport of entry (Nassau qualifies), with the crew filing the Bahamas general declaration (C7A). Passengers need a valid passport. On the return to the US, there is no US preclearance for private flights at Nassau — you file an eAPIS manifest to US CBP before departure and clear US customs at your first US airport of entry on landing. We handle the filings and coordinate a customs-equipped US arrival field so re-entry is smooth.

Island Hops From Nassau

Nassau is the natural hub for onward private flights across the Bahamas’ Out Islands — often the real reason to charter, since many island strips have no scheduled service:

  • Exuma (George Town, GGT) — ~35–40 min; the swimming pigs, Staniel Cay, and the Exuma cays.
  • Harbour Island / Eleuthera (North Eleuthera, ELH) — ~25–30 min; pink-sand beaches and Dunmore Town.
  • Bimini (BIM) — ~30 min; the closest Bahamas island to the US, big-game fishing and the resorts.

Many Out Island strips suit turboprops and light jets rather than larger cabins — we match the aircraft to the runway and arrange the onward leg as part of your itinerary.

Fly Bitlux is a private jet charter broker, arranging flights only on ARGUS- and Wyvern-rated Part 135 operators — independent third-party safety ratings. Every Nassau and Out Island flight is operated by a certified carrier with vetted aircraft and crew, and we handle the Bahamas and US customs paperwork both ways. See our ARGUS Certified Broker and Wyvern listings, or ask us for our certificates.
