Private Jet Charter at Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR)

Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR), formerly Bob Hope Airport, sits in the eastern San Fernando Valley 12 miles northwest of downtown Los Angeles, with a 6,886 ft (2,099 m) main runway that handles aircraft from turboprops through to large-cabin jets.

For clients working at the studios in Burbank and Studio City, or living in Glendale and Pasadena, BUR is often the quickest route onto a private jet, avoiding the drive west across the Valley to Van Nuys. It is one of several airports we use for Los Angeles private jet charter, and the right choice between them depends on where passengers are starting from and where they are flying.

When Is Hollywood Burbank Airport the Best Choice?

For passengers with business at Warner Bros., Disney or Universal, or starting from Glendale, Pasadena or northeast Los Angeles, Burbank usually cuts the ground journey compared with Van Nuys, which sits [10] miles further west. Clients based in Beverly Hills, the Westside or the western Valley are generally better served by Van Nuys, the larger of the two private aviation airports and the one with the longer runway.
