Private Jet Charter at Palm Beach's Main Airport
Palm Beach's main airport, long known as Palm Beach International (PBI), was renamed President Donald J. Trump International Airport in July 2026, and its code changed to DJT in August 2026. Private flights use the south side of the field, where three full-service FBOs operate alongside a U.S. Customs port of entry. The longest runway is 10,000 feet, long enough for the largest business jets.

Why travelers choose Palm Beach
The airport sits minutes from Palm Beach island and West Palm Beach, and its customs facility means flights from the Caribbean or Europe can arrive directly.[1][3]
With a 10,000-foot runway, it can take long-range and large-cabin jets that smaller Palm Beach County airfields cannot.[1][3]
Private aviation operations
All general aviation passenger drop-off, pick-up and aircraft parking is on the south side of the airport. The north ramps are off-limits without county approval.[1]
The airport code changed from PBI to DJT on August 18, 2026. Older itineraries and some booking systems may still show PBI, which this site also accepts.[4]
Final arrangements depend on the aircraft, the operator, any permissions or slots required, and conditions at the airport on the day. RIVIERA JET is a charter broker. Flights are operated by independent, properly certificated operators.
