Itinerary
Why fly private from Miami to Los Cabos
Los Cabos International (SJD) serves the Corridor, the stretch of coast between San José del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas where most top resorts sit. Arriving privately avoids the commercial terminal, and your car can meet you close to the aircraft.
At five and a half to six hours, this is a long flight best done in a super-midsize or large-cabin jet, where a comfortable cabin turns the crossing into part of the vacation.
Cabo is spread out, from Pedregal above the marina to the Corridor villas and the quiet East Cape beaches. A private arrival means your vehicle is ready the moment you land.
Offshore sport fishing for marlin, tuna and dorado draws serious anglers from South Florida. A private flight lets you bring your own tackle, within the aircraft's limits, and be on the water early.
Los Cabos offers a level of resort privacy that is hard to find in busier destinations, and its distance from South Florida makes a private jet the most practical way to get there.
Airports and FBOs
Opa-locka Executive (OPF) is the usual Miami departure for longer international flights, with FBOs that handle super-midsize and large-cabin jets. Fort Lauderdale Executive (FXE) is the alternative for Broward and Palm Beach County and works equally well for flights to Los Cabos. Los Cabos International (SJD), between San José del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas, has a dedicated private aviation area with customs, immigration and ground transport coordination. The Corridor resorts are about 20 to 30 minutes from the private ramp; Cabo San Lucas marina is about 40 minutes.
Flying back from Los Cabos to Miami
The return from Los Cabos to Opa-locka takes a similar five and a half to six hours, sometimes a little less with tailwinds. Departure customs is handled at the private terminal. Empty-leg options appear on this route from time to time if your dates are flexible. We can also build multi-stop Mexico trips that combine Los Cabos with Cancún, Mexico City or Puerto Vallarta.
