PRIVATE AVIATION INFORMATION

Airports and Travel Information

Airport: Aspen/Pitkin County Airport (ASE), 6 miles from downtown; a challenging mountain approach with weather-driven closures.

Alternates: Eagle County Regional (EGE), the reliable all-weather backup 70 minutes away; Rifle (RIL) for larger aircraft.

Aircraft fit: Midsize and super-midsize jets are the sweet spot; heavy jets may need Eagle for runway performance.

Notes: Winter storms can close ASE with little notice. We always hold an Eagle backup plan and pre-position ground transport.

QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a visa for Aspen?

Standard US entry rules apply. ESTA or a visa depending on nationality; tell us early if yours needs a visa and we plan around it.

Can we bring our dog?

Yes. Aspen is famously dog-friendly, and pet-friendly aircraft are available on request. We arrange the paperwork and the right aircraft.

Can a private jet fly directly into Aspen?

Yes, ASE handles private jets daily in winter. It is a mountain airport, so we file an Eagle (EGE) backup for weather days.

What if my flight can't land because of weather?

We re-route to Eagle County Regional and drive you in; limos are pre-arranged. Most weather delays are measured in hours, not days.

What is the best month to ski Aspen?

January and February for snow quality; March for longer days and warmer patios.

Is summer in Aspen worth it?

Absolutely. June's Food and Wine Classic and the eight-week Music Festival make it a second high season, with none of winter's weather risk.
