Charter flights from Stuart and the Treasure Coast
Witham Field sits minutes from Stuart, Palm City, Jensen Beach, Hobe Sound, Sewall’s Point and Port St. Lucie, and is an easy drive from Vero Beach, Jupiter and northern Palm Beach County. For most of the Treasure Coast it is the closest airport you can walk onto without a terminal, a security line or a boarding group.
From Stuart we fly throughout the Lower 48 United States, the Bahamas, the Caribbean and Mexico. Common reasons people call us: getting to a meeting and home the same day, reaching an island the airlines do not serve directly, moving a family with luggage, dogs or golf clubs, and skipping the drive to Fort Lauderdale or Miami.
Airports we use near Stuart
- Witham Field (SUA) — Stuart. Our home field.
- Treasure Coast International (FPR) — Fort Pierce, for trips originating further north.

- Palm Beach International (PBI) — when a trip calls for a larger field.
We also fly from the South Florida airports our clients use most, including Opa-locka, Fort Lauderdale, Miami and Boca Raton.
The aircraft
We fly the whole aircraft, never a seat — whether there is one of you on board or six. Which aircraft fits depends on where you are going.
The Cessna Citation V Ultra and Citation CJ2+ handle the longer trips across the United States. The Piper Navajo Chieftain is the aircraft for Florida, the Southeast, Key West and the Bahamas — the shorter hops and the island fields where a smaller aircraft is the right tool.

Empty legs from Stuart
An empty leg is a one-way repositioning flight that would otherwise fly without passengers, offered at a reduced rate. Because we are based here, a number of these start or end at Witham Field. They change constantly and are worth checking if your dates are flexible.

Flying to the Bahamas from Stuart
The islands are one of the main reasons people charter out of the Treasure Coast. From Stuart — and from Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton and Miami — we fly to Marsh Harbour, Nassau, North Eleuthera and Bimini, and to the rest of the islands besides.
These are the trips the Piper Navajo is built for: short water crossings into airfields where the whole point is landing close to where you are actually staying, without connecting through a hub first.
What a charter from Stuart costs
There is no single hourly number that is honest for every trip, so we quote each one. What moves the price:
- The aircraft — a multi-piston aircraft and a mid-size jet are different tools for different trips.
- Distance and flight time — charter is generally priced by the hours flown.
- Positioning — where the aircraft starts and where it has to go next. Trips that begin at Witham Field often avoid this.
- Overnights and wait time — a same-day return and a four-day trip are priced differently.
- Dates — holidays and event weekends are busier across the industry.
- Passengers and bags — seats, weight and what you are carrying.
