Tips for This Route

Nonstop Needs a Bigger Jet

The trip is about 1,500 nautical miles. Light jets usually stop for fuel. Midsize jets and larger fly it nonstop, though winter headwinds can push a midsize close to its limit on the way west.

Plan Around the Curfew

The flight takes about four hours and Aspen is two hours behind New York, so leaving after about 8 pm Eastern gets close to Aspen’s 11 pm closing time, and winter delays can push you past it. Leave earlier or plan to land at Eagle.

Luggage Space

Ski bags and boot bags fill a cabin quickly. For four skiers, a midsize jet or larger is the most comfortable choice.

Departure and Arrival Airports

Other options: Westchester (HPN) instead of Teterboro; Eagle County (EGE) or Rifle (RIL) if Aspen is closed or full.
