With nearly 700 islands and less than 70 miles from the coast of Florida, the Bahamas can be a quick and exciting vacation for you and your family. The airlines only have the ability to service a few destinations. Booking a fast and convenient private aircraft charter is the only way to get a nonstop flight to the many islands in the Bahamas that have an airport suitable for landing.
For casinos and nightlife, a nonstop private air charter flight to Nassau, Bahamas gives you access for you and your family to visit Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island. For a more romantic getaway, you may want to visit the luxury resorts in Nassau such as the Grand Hyatt Baha Mar. Be sure to visit the shops on Bay Street as well as the bars and restaurants of Cable Beach while you are at it.
If you are looking for a more secluded spot, a private jet charter to the pink sand beaches of Harbour Island in Eleuthera are a must see. You can enjoy pristine ocean view golf courses in the Abacos such as The Abaco Club on Winding Bay.
For excellent deep-sea fishing, you almost can’t go wrong. A fishing charter can be booked easily in Long Island, Grand Bahama Island, Bimini, the Berry Islands, and elsewhere. Tremendous diving and snorkeling can be had in the many islands of the Exuma. If you visit there, be sure to say hello to the famous swimming pigs off Staniel Cay.
Finally, you can visit and swim Dean’s Blue Hole, the second deepest blue hole in the world, just outside of Deadman’s Cay in Long Island. Or fish the rarely traveled waters of the Crooked & Acklins Islands. Most of these places are not easily accessible by the airlines or cruise ships.
Best private jets options to The Bahamas
The type of aircraft required depends on the number of passengers, the trip distance, the runway length that is needed and, of course, your budget. FlyUSA’s aviation experts, who are available 24/7/365, will help arrange a private charter to Bahamas that is custom designed to your unique needs and wants. Here are some of the 7,000 jets that are available to charter for your trip to the Bahamas.

These light jets have 2,000-mile to 2,371-mile flying ranges.
- Phenom 300 has a maximum range of 2,268 miles and a maximum speed of 521 mph. The cabin height is 4-feet, 10 inches. It is ideal for 6 passengers but can seat 7.
