Private Jet Charter from LAP

Fly private from Manuel Márquez de León International Airport

Manuel Márquez de León International Airport serves La Paz, the capital of Baja California Sur, a quieter and more locally oriented city than the resort corridor further south around Los Cabos. The airport shares its field with Mexican Army and Navy operations alongside civilian traffic.

Élan Aviation arranges private charter flights into and out of LAP, coordinating aircraft, crew, and ground handling for travelers headed to La Paz, the Sea of Cortez waterfront, or onward by boat to Baja's offshore islands. Suitable aircraft typically range from light jets to midsize jets given the runway length.

Because LAP sees lighter traffic than Los Cabos, Élan Aviation confirms fuel availability, FBO handling, and customs coordination in advance of each private charter, and can compare LAP against SJD or Loreto depending on your final destination in Baja California Sur.

Why depart privately from LAP?

  • Time your arrival to connect with sportfishing or island boat charters
  • Select an aircraft sized to your group, baggage, and trip distance
  • Avoid the seasonal congestion of the Los Cabos resort corridor
  • Coordinate ground and marina transportation through one charter advisor
