Private Jet Charter from LDJ

Fly private from Linden Airport

Linden Airport (LDJ) is a historic Union County reliever field built in 1942, originally used to test Grumman Wildcat fighters during World War II. Today it is the only non-towered airport serving the New York metropolitan area, offering Élan Aviation clients a quiet, low-traffic alternative to Teterboro and Newark for shorter-range light jet and turboprop trips into the region.

Positioned beside U.S. Route 1&9, the airport gives near-immediate access to the New Jersey Turnpike, the Goethals and Outerbridge crossings to Staten Island, and the Elizabeth and Newark waterfront, making it a practical option for clients with business in central New Jersey or lower Manhattan who prioritize a fast ramp-to-car transfer over jet size.

Because its single runway is best suited to light jets, turboprops, and piston aircraft, Élan Aviation typically arranges Linden for regional repositioning, shorter East Coast hops, and clients who value its history and low-key operating tempo, while directing larger-cabin New York itineraries to Teterboro or Westchester County.
