From Friday escapes to winter Florida hops — complete Hamptons jet, turboprop, and helicopter resource.

The East End is not one airport — it is a network. Each field has its own runway limits, curfews, and season. Pick the one that fits the aircraft, the hour, and the destination.
Wainscott, NY · 3 mi to East Hampton village
The marquee field for the central Hamptons. Closest ramp to East Hampton, Bridgehampton, and Sag Harbor. Weight, noise, and time limits tighten from May through September; helicopters and certain jets face curfew windows. Slot-controlled on summer Fridays.
Westhampton Beach, NY · 28 mi to East Hampton
The workhorse of the East End. Longest runway, fewest restrictions, jet-friendly year-round. The reliable alternative when KHTO is curfew-locked or weathered in. Strong FBO infrastructure and the default slot for midsize and super-midsize jets in peak summer.
Montauk, NY · The terminus of the South Fork
Short runway at the literal end of Long Island. Ideal for helicopters and the right turboprop (PC-12, TBM 910/940) routing direct to the far East End without a drive. Not suitable for most jets. Landing slots in July/August are extremely limited.
Ronkonkoma, NY · 45 mi west of East Hampton
Not in the Hamptons proper, but the dependable fallback when East End fields are slot-constrained or weight-limited. Handles any jet class with commercial-style FBO service. Useful for westbound repositioning and winter Florida legs where runway length matters more than proximity.
Note: KHTO and KMTP weights, slots, and curfews are set by the Town of East Hampton and shift seasonally — we confirm current limits at quote time, not at browse time.
Nine signature legs — into the East End, out of the East End, and the winter Florida circuit. Times are block estimates; "from" pricing is a one-way estimate based on recent Part 135 operator rates, not a guaranteed fare.
Hamptons fields are short. KHTO is 4,200 ft, KMTP 3,646 ft. Aircraft choice is not preference — it is physics. These are the airframes that fit.
Runway performance is decided by temperature, runway surface, and obstacle clearance — not brochure numbers. KHTO in August on a 90°F day behaves nothing like KHTO in October. We model performance for the day you fly, not a chart average.
All aircraft below are operated by FAA-licensed Part 135 carriers. Where available, we prefer operators rated by ARGUS Platinum or Wyvern Wingman.
Turboprop
Single-engine turboprop that takes KHTO and KMTP in stride. Nine-hour range from a 2,000 ft ground roll — it will reach the East End from anywhere east of the Mississippi.

Light Jet
The CJ series is built for the 4,000 ft runway. Pressurized jet comfort, two pilots, and the speed to make Boston in under an hour from KHTO.
Best forKHTO (cool days) · KFOK · BOS route
Helicopter
Twin-engine, IFR-capable, eight-seat helicopters that turn a three-hour Friday drive into a 35-minute flight from the Downtown Heliport to HTO.
Best forJRB/TSS → HTO · KMTP · summer Fridays
Twin Turboprop
Two engines, proven in coastal weather, generous cabin. The conservative pick when single-engine margins are tight on hot summer days.
Best forKHTO · KFOK · family groups · IFR days
Light Jet
The fastest of the light jets that still fits KHTO within limits on temperate days. Cross-country range, flat-floor cabin, true jet speed for the Boston and island hops.
Best forKFOK year-round · KHTO cool days · ACK
Super-Mid
Not a KHTO aircraft — too heavy — but the default for the winter Florida circuit out of KFOK and KISP. Non-stop to Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale, and beyond.

The same field behaves like two different airports. KHTO in July is slot-controlled and curfew-locked; KHTO in January is wide open. Field notes for each season.
Submit a route and a date. We return three operator options with aircraft, times, and honest estimates — typically within minutes. No founder story, no sales script. Just the desk.

The 5pm Friday HTO slot nobody could find — they had it in three options before I finished my coffee. That is what I pay for.
