Private Jet Charter from HWD

Fly private from Hayward Executive Airport

Hayward Executive Airport (HWD) is a city-owned, towered reliever field on the eastern shore of the San Francisco Bay, serving the southern and eastern Bay Area, including Hayward, Fremont, and San Leandro. Its 5,685-foot main runway and instrument approach give Élan Aviation clients dependable access for light jet and turboprop travel just a few nautical miles south of Oakland International.

The airport is served by FBOs including APP Jet Center and Advantage Aviation Services, offering fuel, hangar and ramp parking, and ground handling for based and transient private aircraft. Its position just off I-880 provides quick access throughout the East Bay and across the San Mateo and Dumbarton bridges to the Peninsula and South Bay.

Because its runway is best matched to light jets, turboprops, and piston aircraft, Élan Aviation typically positions Hayward for clients traveling to the East Bay, Fremont's technology corridor, or the southern Peninsula, while routing larger-cabin jet itineraries to Oakland International or San Francisco International Airport.
