Route overview

Private flights from Los Angeles to Nashville

A popular link between the entertainment industry and the country music business, this transcontinental route runs nonstop with a single dedicated airport at each end.

Private flights from Los Angeles to Nashville typically take about 4 hours 9 minutes nonstop, depending on the aircraft, winds, and air-traffic routing across the country. The route connects Southern California with Middle Tennessee without the connections, layovers, and crowded terminals that a commercial itinerary on this transcontinental distance would require.

Depart from Van Nuys Airport (VNY), the world's busiest general aviation airport, positioned minutes from LA's Westside and the Studio City entertainment corridor. Arrive at Nashville International (BNA), where a full-service general aviation and charter ramp gives quick FBO access for business and music-industry travelers alike. Your charter advisor can confirm aircraft availability and ground-transfer plans on both ends before the trip is booked.
