Private Jet Charterto Sun Valley
Flying into Sun Valley, Idaho through Friedman Memorial and 2 alternate fields. Operators bid on your trip without knowing who is flying it.
Arrival
Landing at Sun Valley
Sun Valley sits in Idaho at 43.50 degrees north, 114.30 degrees west. Charter traffic works through Friedman Memorial, KSUN.
You have 3 fields to choose between: Friedman Memorial (KSUN), Magic Valley Regional (KTWF) and Boise Air Terminal (KBOI). 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.
Friedman Memorial sits in a valley with terrain on three sides and diversions to Twin Falls are common in poor visibility.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Friedman Memorial | KSUN | SUN | 43.504, -114.296 | Preferred |
| Magic Valley Regional | KTWF | TWF | 42.482, -114.488 | Alternate |
| Boise Air Terminal | KBOI | BOI | 43.564, -116.223 | Alternate |
