Planning detail 01

Choose your Miami or Fort Lauderdale departure

Whether you live in Miami or Fort Lauderdale, or are visiting either city, we can help arrange your private flight to Nassau from the area that suits you. Miami departures include Miami–Opa locka Executive (OPF), Miami Executive (TMB) and Miami International (MIA). For clients based in Fort Lauderdale, Fort Lauderdale Executive (FXE) and Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International (FLL) offer local departure options. Share where you’ll be staying or starting your day and when you’d like to leave. We’ll compare aircraft availability and airport options around you; if an airport in the other city offers a better fit, we’ll discuss the extra drive together.

Enjoy Nassau and a nearby island day

What does your ideal Bahamas day look like? A slow morning by the beach, an afternoon out on the water or dinner with friends after a day exploring? Nassau and Paradise Island can be the holiday itself. Leave room for a taste of the islands at Arawak Cay’s Fish Fry, where you can try conch salad and Bahamian seafood. For a little island time during your Nassau stay, consider a beach day on Blue Lagoon Island, reached by ferry from Paradise Island, or a boat excursion to Rose Island with Sandy Toes. You can enjoy the water and a change of scenery while keeping Nassau as your base—without taking another flight. Tell us where you’re staying and whether you have a ferry, boat excursion or yacht departure planned. We’ll help coordinate your Nassau arrival and ground transfer around the right marina or departure point, with time to settle in before heading out on the water.

Planning detail 03

Compare the cabin and luggage space you will actually use

For a short island trip, passenger count alone does not tell the whole story. Large suitcases, golf bags, a stroller or a pet may change which aircraft makes sense. We compare suitable aircraft categories and explain the trade-offs in cabin space and baggage capacity.

What shapes a Miami or Fort Lauderdale–Nassau charter quote?

Your dates, aircraft location, group size, waiting time and return plan all affect a whole-aircraft quote. A same-day return and a return several days later can require different arrangements. Share the complete itinerary first, including any flexibility, so the options reflect the trip you intend to book.

Questions about Miami / Fort Lauderdale to Nassau charters

Where could we stay for a luxury escape in Nassau?

For a beachfront stay, consider Rosewood Baha Mar on Cable Beach. If you prefer a more intimate boutique setting, The Island House in western Nassau is another option to explore. Both are reached by car from Lynden Pindling International (NAS), so your flight can bring you straight into Nassau without an onward island connection. Tell us which property feels right for your getaway, and we can coordinate with your hotel or driver to make the arrival feel effortless.

Where do we meet the aircraft—and where will our driver meet us in Nassau?

Your itinerary will include the FBO (private terminal) details and address for departure and arrival, along with your aircraft’s tail number. Share these with your driver so they can locate the correct terminal and identify your flight. Nassau’s private-flight facilities include Odyssey Aviation and Jet Nassau. If you prefer, introduce us to your driver and we can stay in touch directly to coordinate your pickup—leaving you free to relax and enjoy the flight.

Can we fly to Nassau for the day and return that evening?

Of course—we can arrange a same-day round trip for you. Tell us what time you need to be at your meeting, lunch or boat departure, and when you’d like to return. This lets us plan your ground journey as well as the flight details around your day. If you’re taking a ferry or boat excursion, share its return time too, so we can bring everything together.

Why can two quotes for the same Nassau trip be so different?

You’re comparing a whole aircraft, not an airline seat. Aircraft size, cabin layout, where the aircraft starts its day and the return schedule can all change the total. Compare the departure airport, aircraft model and baggage capacity as well as the price. Ask whether taxes, airport and handling charges, catering and ground transfers are included or listed separately. We’ll walk through the differences with you before you choose.

Can we bring golf clubs, a stroller or several large suitcases?

Yes—just let us know what you’d like to bring before we propose aircraft. What can be accommodated depends on your passenger count and the aircraft’s baggage capacity. With those details in hand, we’ll help you find the best option for your group and everything you’d like to take along.
