Private Jet from Houston to New York
A private jet from Houston to New York takes about three to three and a half hours, nonstop to Teterboro, a short drive from Midtown Manhattan. Energy, finance, law and medicine keep this corridor busy throughout the year, and a private flight turns a full travel day into a morning. Altrove Jets sources the right aircraft from Hobby, Sugar Land or Bush Intercontinental, arranges the car waiting on the ramp in New Jersey or Westchester, and can plan a same-day return when your meetings end.

Itinerary
Why fly private from Houston to New York
Teterboro (TEB) is about 12 miles from Midtown, much closer than JFK or Newark for most Manhattan meetings, with no terminals, gates or baggage claim.
A same-day round trip is realistic: leave Houston early, spend the day in Manhattan and fly home in the evening, with the aircraft waiting for you.
Private FBOs at Hobby, Sugar Land and Bush Intercontinental let you board minutes after arriving, from whichever side of Houston suits you best.
A midsize or super-midsize jet gives you a quiet cabin to work or hold a meeting on the way, with Wi-Fi on many aircraft and catering to your taste.
Teams can travel together and change plans on short notice. If a meeting moves, your departure can move with it, subject to crew duty limits.
Airports and FBOs
William P. Hobby Airport (HOU) is the closest private option to downtown, River Oaks, the Galleria and the Texas Medical Center. Sugar Land Regional (SGR) suits Sugar Land, Katy and the west and southwest suburbs. George Bush Intercontinental (IAH) has private FBOs and is convenient for The Woodlands and the north side. In New York, Teterboro (TEB) is the main private airport for Manhattan, about 12 miles from Midtown. Westchester County Airport in White Plains (HPN) is convenient for Westchester, Greenwich and southern Connecticut.
Return flights from New York to Houston
Return flights from New York to Houston usually take a little longer westbound because of prevailing winds. We can arrange a same-day return with the aircraft waiting at Teterboro, a round trip over several days, or two one-way flights.
