Government & Political Charter Flights

Boca Jet Charter arranges private charter flights for government and political travel from Boca Raton and airports across South Florida. Official schedules and campaign schedules both move constantly, and the aircraft has to keep up with them.

Most of this work is short notice and multi-leg. A delegation working Miami, Orlando and Tallahassee inside a single day. A candidate covering three media markets before an evening event. Staff and equipment repositioning ahead of an announcement. Where an aircraft is available, we can usually have a trip confirmed within a few hours.

Airports for official travel in South Florida

Boca Raton Airport (KBCT) is the usual departure point for trips like these, and it sits between the Palm Beaches and Broward. President Donald J. Trump International (KDJT), formerly Palm Beach International, serves West Palm Beach and the state capital route. Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International (KFLL) and Miami-Opa Locka Executive (KOPF) both take larger aircraft when the delegation grows.

Palm Beach carries standing federal airspace restrictions, which occasionally change routings into and out of the West Palm Beach airport. Your advisor will tell you whether anything applies on your dates.

Security and discretion

Every flight we arrange is operated by a certified air carrier. Before we send you options, we confirm the operator’s certification, review their safety and incident history, and confirm that the pilots are experienced and current on the aircraft type you will be flying on.

Passenger names and itinerary details stay confidential. They go to the operator and the private terminal handling the trip, and no further.

Vetting Behind Every Trip

Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:

  • FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
  • Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
  • Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
  • Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.

Boca Raton-Specific Patterns We Plan Around

Hurricane season runs June through November and peaks in September, and summer afternoons bring thunderstorms that build quickly and close airspace while they pass. Your advisor watches the forecast ahead of your date and will call you before you call us. Boca Raton Airport also asks operators to observe a voluntary curfew between 10:00 PM and 7:00 AM, which does not block a departure but is worth raising early if your trip lands in that window.
