Private Jet Charterto Nantucket
Flying into Nantucket, Massachusetts through Nantucket Memorial and 2 alternate fields. Operators bid on your trip without knowing who is flying it.
Arrival
Landing at Nantucket
Nantucket sits in Massachusetts at 41.25 degrees north, 70.06 degrees west. Charter traffic works through Nantucket Memorial, KACK.
You have 3 fields to choose between: Nantucket Memorial (KACK), Martha s Vineyard (KMVY) and Barnstable Hyannis (KHYA). They are not interchangeable. Runway length decides which aircraft can use each one, customs facilities decide which can take an international arrival, and ground transfer time to your actual destination often matters more than either.
Summer weekend parking on Nantucket is limited and aircraft are often repositioned off island between legs. Coastal fog is a routine cause of delay from late spring through midsummer.
Ask any operator to confirm three things for your date before you commit: ramp and overnight parking availability, customs hours if you are arriving internationally, and whether the aircraft they are offering has an approved crew for the field. The third one catches people out at terrain constrained airports where the operator needs a specific qualification.
| Airport | ICAO | IATA | Coordinates | Role |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nantucket Memorial | KACK | ACK | 41.253, -70.060 | Preferred |
| Martha s Vineyard | KMVY | MVY | 41.393, -70.614 | Alternate |
| Barnstable Hyannis | KHYA | HYA | 41.669, -70.280 | Alternate |

Charter into Nantucket
Nearby alternatives
Which airport should a private jet use for Nantucket?
Nantucket Memorial (KACK / ACK) takes most charter traffic. The alternates are Martha s Vineyard (MVY) and Barnstable Hyannis (HYA). Choose on ground transfer time to your actual address, not on the name you recognise, because the difference in drive time frequently outweighs the difference in flight time.
Are there operating restrictions at Nantucket?
Summer weekend parking on Nantucket is limited and aircraft are often repositioned off island between legs. Coastal fog is a routine cause of delay from late spring through midsummer. Confirm the current position with the operator before you commit to a schedule, because these rules change and the published version is not always the current one.
How long is a private jet flight to Nantucket?
It depends entirely on where you start. Across the routes we publish into Nantucket, the shortest is 91 nautical miles and the longest is 2,308. In a midsize jet that spans roughly 40m to 5h 41m. Every route page carries the exact figure for that specific pair.
What does a private jet to Nantucket cost?
There is no fixed number, and any site that gives you one is guessing. The dominant variable is whether an operator already has a suitable aircraft near your departure point, because a positioning leg can cost as much as the flight you actually want. Send the trip through the form and certificated operators bid on it against each other, sealed, without knowing who you are.
Can I fly into Nantucket on a light jet?
On 9 of the 13 routes we publish into Nantucket, yes, a light jet covers the leg nonstop with comfortable margin. On the rest the sector length forces either a fuel stop or a larger class. The route page for your specific origin shows which applies.
